00:00I like everything about Trump because he's an honest man.
00:02It's a positive day, very positive.
00:05I was surprised, didn't expect him to win.
00:07He won it, he did better than Kamala.
00:10I have no idea what's in store for us at this point.
00:14I'm scared just based off of everything that's happened over the last eight years.
00:18He was able to resonate and play on to the fears that a lot of people had
00:23with the economy and immigration.
00:25I'm hoping that the border will be taken care of.
00:28They should close it, we have too many illegal immigrants here,
00:32especially bad illegal immigrants.
00:35They should just deport them.
00:36He's going to shut down the border, that's the only thing I care about right now.
00:40It feels like the rule of law isn't really applied anymore and I'm scared.
00:46What matters to me is how we treat other people and so my concern is that sometimes
00:51the language he uses I think disenfranchises people or puts down people or makes them feel
00:56like they're not important.
00:58He's a New Yorker, he's aggressive.
01:01He's got something on his mind, he's going to do it.
01:05And that's the type of person the United States needs.
01:07I hate to think of how many people just are bought into the fear and the hate.
01:12If you wouldn't lay your daughter in a roof with him,
01:14why would you vote for him?
01:16He says that he's going to be the president for everybody,
01:18so we'll have to hold him accountable to that.
01:20Just given his record, do you think that's likely,
01:23that he can be the president for everybody?
01:25Whether I like it or not, he's going to be, so he needs to fulfill it.
01:30And I hope both sides of the aisle, Democrats and Republicans,
01:33just can hold him accountable to that.
01:35You've described him as aggressive.
01:36Is that something that America needs right now?
01:39Of course.
01:40We need somebody to step on these people and put us where we're supposed to be.
01:44Is there anything that he could do that would put you off him at this point?
01:48Nah.
