What's this?

Define support.

Did I support him in the primaries? No

Did I vote for him in GE? Yes

Would I do so again given the same exact choice? Most likely

Do I think he has demonstrated competence? Only on limited occasions in the most limited way so far

Do I want him to succeed in certain areas? Absolutely

Do I think he will? Highly Doubtful

Do I agree with most of his public statements? No. Even I could do better and that's a low bar

Will I vote for him again? Totally depends on the options. Have to think a competent candidate with a reasonable position on some issues I care about will emerge. But then again I've been disappointed by our candidates in the pst and expect to be in the future.

You asked. I answered. Fire away.
