Former Pence aide Olivia Troye added to Grisham’s comments, “I was in the room when he said, I don’t want to shake hands with those dirty people, those disgusting people. So I think you have his former press secretary is saying, this is what he thinks of his supporters. I personally detest the fact that he speaks of him in that way. That so disrespectful. And what I think what really breaks my heart is just how much they rally around someone who really just doesn’t care about them, like has complete disregard, has no identification with the middle class or the working class.”

Donald Trump hates his supporters, and the contrast with how Kamala Harris treats her supporters was clear when one of the attendees at her Milwaukee rally became ill during her speech.

The Vice President said as people tried to help the medics get to the person in distress, “This is who we are. This is what we are about, looking out for each other. We care about each other.”
How candidate treats their supporters provides insight into how they would treat the nation, and America deserves better than Donald Trump.
