Tiffany, Matt is a stalwart Trump supporter who wants to bill a wall and deport immigrants, including DACA recipients. Do you agree with those positions? #mepolitics

Matt and I do not agree on all policy. He knows I'm honest and likes that I won't take money. I think a wall is an ineffective use of money and the lens we are looking at immigration through is wrong. You probably picked the 2 topics we agree least on.

I don't think I've been particularly shy on how I feel about separating families. Probably 1/3 of my clients are Trump supporters and that group is certainly represented in campaign supporters too...but it's not because we agree on every policy.

They like me for the same reason many liberals do. I'm humane. I care. I seek outcomes that benefit many people without sacrificing vulnerable. I don't try to change them. I try to speak their language in a way that helps them find benefit without being dishonest.

Those who lean right know I am more left than they are, as do those on the left know I am probably a bit to their right. I don't hide either and I try to generally be respectful of the differences. There are a lot of areas we agree on though.

People can also like the same policy for different reasons. For example, someone on may prefer decriminalization of drinking in public and providing services instead because it's humane. Someone else may like it because it saves taxpayer $.

One person may want single payer/universal. The other may want affordable healthcare and really only care if it costs less, not who administers it while really disliking what we have now. Those are not mutually exclusive positions.

One person might want to deport immigrants, insult teenage victims of gun violence and want to bill a wall. The other might not take money for her campaign.

I don't think you'll agree with me on this, but I'm happy to have supporters from a spectrum. It doesn't mean I agree with them, it means they agree with me a good chunk of the time.
Any person in a leadership position will have supporters that don't fully align.

Do you still live in Portland, by the way?

Yes. I had to bump back looking at a house in Sangerville due to a work obligation. I've been on the road a lot with work and signatures. Still looking.
