Why do I support President Donald Trump?
Immediately after Mr. Trump announced that he would run for President, I decided to vote for him as President for America! This was not a sudden decision, but I have my own judgment and decision! The image of Mr. Trump as a successful businessman, shaking hands with President Ronald Reagan is always in my mind! In my eyes, President Reagan was not only a benefactor of the world when he overthrew communism in the Soviet Union, but he was always a savior for my family and many HO families! Without President Reagan’s approval of the Humanitarian Operation (HO) refugee program for former Vietnamese “Re-education” prisoners to sponsor more than 100,000 of the Army of the Republic of Vietnam soldiers and their families to settle in the United States, we would not be here today! Our family was among those to set our foot to this wonderful land in 1991! For our family, HO stands for “Hope” and “Opportunity”!
It is impossible to imagine the poverty of our family after the Fall of Saigon in 1975! Our Father was captured and imprisoned by the Communist after the war ended and left my mother with 5 young children ranging from 7 years old to 2 months old! I was the youngest one at the time. She was only 32 years old. She was the most extraordinary mother in my eyes! The only fortune that our father left behind for us was a small house but soon after that, the unimaginable thing happened-a fire completely burned the entire house down! Due to his high ranking, Father was in prison for 10 years! 10 years is a long time for a lifetime of imprisoned people, a brutal revenge of the communists! 10 years, our mother had to take care of 5 of us and tried to visit our father in the communist prison as much as possible!
Eventually, our father was released and we once became family again, the hardships have passed and we have rebuilt our family in this great country!... I am a Buddhist, I always have a good heart, if the North Vietnamese communists’s mission was to take care of their people, then perhaps, one day I will forget and forgive what they did to my father and my family... but no, evil the communist, selfish and savage people are still there! There is no freedom of speech, there is no human rights in Vietnam under the Communist regime!
We all have witnessed what is going on in Hongkong today. There are millions of them marching on the streets to protest again the Extradition Bill. As we all know, the British handed control Hongkong back to China in 1997 after 156 years of ruling Hongkong territory. Obviously, Hongkong people and its young generation have enjoyed a humanized education, they understand the value of democratic freedom, they value freedom, and human rights, so when they feel that the basic right will be lost if they are ruled by the Chinese communists, they are no longer afraid and stand up to fight for it! Don't compare Hong Kong youth with Vietnamese youth and then be disappointed! Young people in Vietnam have been brainwashed for many years, on top of that, they have different focus, they don’t want to be involved in politics, they don’t take the initiative to learn about the truth history of the Vietnam War, but rather believing in the Vietnamese Communist propaganda...
I support Mr. Trump for one reason and a single hope - he will follow the footsteps of the late President Ronald Reagan and destroy the communist Chinese Communist !! ! If Chinese Communist fell, the Vietnamese communist will automatically follow! That is my wish for a better Vietnam! 44 years has been more than enough for South Vietnam to endure! The Communist agenda is not for the better of its people but corruption, brutal attacks on those who voice their views that are not in line with their agenda!
I lost quite a few “friends" just because I supported President Trump, knowing that he was not a perfect person, talking frankly, easily offending others, but he fights for world peace, especially he does not like socialism/communism and for that only reason, he is my hope and my Vietnamese people!

What a powerful voice! She knows first hand what it is like in a socialist and communist run country. I have heard more stories of these kind of people voicing their support of Trump because they see what kind of flawed and vulgar man Trump is and I would rather deal with that kind of man cause I know I am dealing truthfully. I hate a two-faced man or woman.
