HARRISBURG, Pa. — Throughout President Donald Trump’s first 100 days in office, there’s been a deluge of bad press.



From the start, there were issues with the size of Trump’s inauguration. He said it was the largest, the media showed otherwise. There was the resignation of now-former national security advisor Mike Flynn, a huge blow to Trump at the time, especially considering Flynn had only been on the job a mere 24 days.

There was the failure of his health care bill, which Trump said throughout his campaign would be enacted within his first 100 days in office to replace the Affordable Care Act. It didn’t happen.

Before that, there were issues with his travel ban, which was blocked by more than one federal judge, even after it was revised. And who can count all of the snafus White House Press Secretary Sean Spicer has endured? All of this is part of a long list of losses the administration has endured in its first 100 days, and the people who voted for the president have taken notice.

On Saturday evening, Trump held a rally here in Harrisburg and thousands flocked to the Pennsylvania Farm Show Complex & Expo Center to show their unwavering support.

One of those people was Michelle Raifsnider, 47, who hails from Chambersburg, Pa., She wore a snapback which covered her nearly waist-length long, brown hair and donned an “adorable deplorable” T-shirt. Raifsnider said she loves how “transparent” Trump is and that, in her opinion, the nation hasn’t seen a president who was truly open with people like he's been.

While Raifsnider spoke, Lisa, a 48-year-old woman from New Jersey who did not want to use her last name, interjected, saying, “I agree with her." Trump has been "very transparent and very open to Twitter and letting us know what’s going on. He is trying, he is trying within his 100 days … He is trying, he is trying to uphold his promises but the Democrats are blocking him,” she told BuzzFeed News.
