Some locals in my town were/are Trumpers. A lot of skaters probably think "Grab 'em by the pussy" is the illest line ever and backed him since.

I met a Trump supporting skateboarder in Detroit. It fucked my whole reality up.

Jim Greco was definitely liking Pro-Trump shit on instagram over a year ago. I could see it from the explore page.

if you're not wenning you're loosing and rosie is a looser.
i have no idea if that's true or not but i could see danny way jumping at the chance to ollie the white house for trump's inauguration. jereme was against those asian strikers so he prolly sides w/ big business. todd falcon and king of freestyle seem like they might.

If I had to guess, probably Puleo and Jason Jesse. Danny Way is a good call. I could see Mike Mo being a Trump supporter, too.

I could see Mike Mo not even knowing who the current president is or the one before.

I feel like people are finally coming around to the fact that politics is rigged by the big money interests they just picked the wrong guy using the logic "well he has money, he can't be bought". Wrong, he is a greedy, egotistical maniac who will use the position to fill his pockets even more and further the right-wing agenda. Inequality will grow further but we will hear lots of great announcements about every company that supposedly decides to stay because of him.

I think you're mistaking him for Nick Trapasso.

The shorty's instagram posted this before the election. It's anti-hillary, so pro-trump by default, but probably more of a 3rd party kook.

Jason Jessee is no longer a Nazi. He's a cholo so probably anti-Trump, but there is that whole La Eme/Aryan Brotherhood connection.

As Slap's resident pro skateboarding Republican, Kalis is likely pro-Trump. I would expect any financially successful pro to lean right. Let the poor pay your taxes. On the other hand, Trump's free trade stance(s) could disrupt the current skate industry and make it more expensive for rich pros to buy European and Japanese luxury cars.

I don't think it's a hugely slanderous or inaccurate thing to say that pro skateboarders are on average fairly poorly educated. It's kinda the nature of the profession: if you waited to start your pro career until after you got a college degree you're going to have missed some of your best years as a skater. Dudes like Ocean & Suciu are super rare.

Despite all the talk about working class resentment blah blah, the main factor that determined how people voted in this last election was education level. And race, of course.

Put simply: if you're white, the less educated you are, the more likely it is you voted for Trump. So, I'd assume there are probably lots of pros with Trump sympathies.

But I'd also bet that 90 percent of pro skaters did not vote at all.

I would think most are apolitical. Rampant drug usage probably places many as socially liberal or libertarian, but lack of employer-provided insurance would suggest reliance on Obama care (although its right-wing think tank origins and making people buy from private carriers makes it politically ambiguous).

I don't want to know. Everyone in my country assumes (knows?) that trump supporters are racists/retards. I couldn't respect a trump supporter.
