'The shine's come off': Disillusioned Trump voters put deep-red state in play
CNN's John King traveled to rural Ohio – deep-red MAGA country – and found many of President Donald Trump's supporters were losing their enthusiasm.
The chief national correspondent spoke to disillusioned Trump voters in Portsmouth, and they told King that Trump's war in Iran and the downstream effects on the country's affordability crisis had soured them on his second presidency.
"I am pro-military, and I am – we have a strong need to protect this country," said Dale King, an Iraq war veteran and gym owner. "I know there are threats and I know there are enemies that want to see the downfall of this country. But you can't can't be flippant about war."
The combat veteran told the reporter he's planning to vote Democratic in this year's election to send Republicans a message, and he said conversations with friends and fellow veterans had convinced him that change was coming.
