6:21Now PlayingAccording to new reports, swing voters in pivotal states like Wisconsin are beginning to turn on Donald Trump after finally coming to the realization that the man is a con artist and that he lies about everything. This doesn’t automatically mean that Democrats are going to win in the Midwest, but it does offer a window for Democrats to make some serious progress. Ring of Fire’s Farron Cousins explains how Democrats can get these swing voters over to their side, but it won’t be easy.

According to a recent report by Axios who actually conducted a focus group of swing voters out there in the state of Wisconsin. More and more former Trump voters are starting to sour on the president. And the reason they're souring on Donald Trump is because they now understand that yeah, the man is a con man. The man is a liar, and he only cares about himself. Here's a few choice quotes from some of the people who were present in those focus groups. Here's what I think. He's a dirty crook that lies, cheats and steals when he can. There's just a plethora of things that are still coming out. Uh, this woman, uh, this came from a man who voted for Donald Trump in 2016 who had previously voted for Obama in 2012. It was one of those about Obama to Trump voters. Uh, here's one from Adam Kay, a 47 year old, also Obama to Trump voter in Wisconsin.
He's been caught in a lot of lies. You know, just admit that you made a mistake and say, I'm sorry, I shouldn't have said that. Uh, another woman, Amanda S, another Obama to Trump supporter, said he's getting stuff done. Buddy lies. I don't think he's a very good person, buddies getting stuff done. So it's hard. We're going to come back to that because that's an important statement there. Another one from Lisa White, uh, she was a Romney than Hillary voter had this to say, oh, he's done a lot for jobs in the economy, but I'm all about the way people treat people and if you're going to be a jerk then you kind of don't need to be the face of America. Interesting enough, wasn't a Trump voter to begin with. So I doubt a Lisa White here is going to go back and vote for Trump again because she never did.
But I want to go back to the previous statement. I don't think he's a very good person, but he's getting stuff done so it's hard. So it's hard. It's hard to say. I want you out of office. Is, is essentially what this woman in the focus group is telling us. It's hard. And that right there, that is the problem that Democrats are going to run into in 2020 because look, we all know the truth Trumps not doing anything right. He's not doing anything that's actually helping the economy. When we see these positive numbers, it's because with wage growth, you also have to factor in the people who make $1 billion a year, so it skews the number upward. If it was just average Americans, it would be in the negative percentages, but it's not. So they throw out these high positive numbers. People Think, oh well things are good.
