Voting for Trump - and regretting it Sharif, the Madina Mall shop owner who fears she may have to return to the bad old days of having a boss, gave out an exasperated sigh. "Would you believe if I told you I voted for this man?" she said, referring to Trump. Sharif is not politically active, but in 2024, some campaigners came to her shop and told her that Trump would be good for business and against the LGBTQ agenda. "I was immediately hooked," she said. She voted Republican for the first time. Now, chagrined, she said, "I never thought the man I put in office would come for my family, make me financially struggle and cause me so much fear that I carry my passport when I go to the bathroom," she said, pointing at the mall's bathrooms. “I feel as though the weapon I built is coming to kill me and my people,” she said.
