CLINT, THE CATERER
CLINT, THE CATERER // Lansing, Michigan
“Democrats, for the last 50 years, have been voting the same people in, and Black neighborhoods have stayed the same. Donald Trump is going to change that.”
“Still a lot of crime on the south side,” Clint says, “but the downtown is better now than it was ten years ago.”Clint’s Hotdog Cart – a mobile “No-Hassle Casual Catering” business – is parked across the street from the Capitol building in Lansing, Michigan.
Also the Deacon at Mount Zion All Nations Bible Church, Clint says he plans to “pray a lot” if Hillary Clinton wins. He’s dismayed by how President Obama has “bowed down in the Middle East” and raises concerns about illegal immigration and the unfortunate status quo running the country. “If Hillary wins, it’s going to be the same old stuff.”
Trump “doesn’t seem like a racist to me, a little radical, but why don’t we give him a chance? I know he’s not going to be our savior, because we only got one savior.”
