Walking through Manhattan in New York City earlier this week as student of the New York Film Academy (NYFA), my team and I had a hard time getting a trump supporter to give us her opinion on his recent sexist comments. It appeared that almost everyone on the street had somehow had decamped overnight. Especially after the previous night presidential debate.
The women we interviewed, told us plainly that they would NOT vote for man like Trump who disrespects women. some however told us although they were not sure they would vote Hillary Clinton but they certainly would not vote for Trump. Most New Yorkers seem to be at a crossroad at this point. One lady particularly said that it is now a case of making a choice on two bad options.
Although we are not sure if that is the case in other cities in America but in New York where we carried out our survey Trump is losing supporters especially after the release of the audio tape that revealed his locker-room discussion on women. we eventually did find a Trump supporter when we arrived at Trump Towers on Fifth Avenue.
There was a mixture of tourist taking picture, supporters clowning about in different costumes with picture of Donald Trump on Placards. It was more like a market place with people going in and coming out.
The elderly who spoke to us said they still believed Donald Trump would make a better president. Concerning his recent sexist comments, they did not want to talk about it.
