Why I went back to Trump

Many of you may know me from my original large 350k-follower account as one of the first people to end support. After this weekend’s engagement with Thomas Massie, his antisemitic trope toward me got a lot of eyes on my new account, with people surprised that I am a Trump supporter again. Here’s how it happened.

I felt betrayed by the Democratic Party because of their complicity in the rise of antisemitism from the left in America. I took time off social media, eventually ending my original account by letting the deactivation period run past the reactivation time limit.

With the time off social media, I had time to reflect on my values and realized that liberals are fake and leftists have no moral compass in the way they treat Americans who have different opinions. I’ve also seen the way white people and Jews continue to be treated. You’re not allowed to have a different opinion on transgender ideology, not allowed to support the 2nd Amendment; you get canceled for believing men shouldn’t be in women’s sports and girls’ locker rooms. The left only protects a small class of people instead of caring about all Americans. And President Trump is one of the few who speaks up for the silent majority, and that’s why the Democratic Party and the left hate him.

I’ve seen that he is an ally to my Jewish community and to Israel. I’ve seen how he cares for blue-collar workers in our country. Once my thoughts and mind cleared, I saw how every case that tried to impeach the man was truly biased and completely ignored any evidence that supported his case; for example, Trump has called for peaceful protest on January 6th. Legacy media and Democrats always ignore that fact.

When I came back on X/Twitter and spent time with conservatives again, I felt like I came back to my political home. I know the Republican Party isn’t perfect, but real conservatives call out antisemites on the right. We do hold our own accountable. I even see some who respectfully disagree with the moves our President made, and that’s ok. I feel like I’m no longer part of the woke mob and once again have moral clarity.

I don’t expect everyone on the right to forgive me, and that’s ok. I’m grateful for the ones who have, but I’ll keep fighting for what’s right by defending America and her people, President Trump, and our allies. I have no regrets in voting for President Trump in 2024.
