## What the media says

**Video transcript** (1:30), transcribed automatically, so names and numbers may be wrong. Speakers aren't identified, so a voice in it may not be his:

> I was a Democrat most of my life. I only turned Republican in the last four years. I've been a Democrat. My father was a Democrat in politics. Democrats are not the same as they were many years ago. It's like a role reversal. It seems good is bad, bad is good nowadays. I know my father will turn over in his grave, but I don't think so. Not when he sees the standards that we have to live with today. And I'm sorry to say the new people coming in, it's like they get rewarded for doing nothing when you worked all your life paying into Social Security and we haven't gotten a raise in Social Security in a long time either. They're talking about our pensions. No, don't take it away. I am voting for Mr. Donald Trump. If anyone's interested, I'm not afraid to say it. What made me jump from one party to another party was first I voted for Obama. I thought he was better than sliced bread. He was going to do a wonderful thing. And then after his time was up, I realized things didn't go quite right. Things are getting crazy. I went to my election office and I said, take me off the Democrat roster and put me on the Republican roster. That's when I flipped.
