Trump supporter says country 'in a good situation' because Trump is 'president as of now'

A supporter of Donald Trump in New Hampshire falsely insisted that the leading Republican presidential candidate was currently president "as of now."

While waiting for Trump to speak outside an event in Rochester on Sunday, a Newsmax reporter spoke to supporters of the former president.

"What makes you so passionate to come up and see Donald Trump?" the reporter asked one man.

"Oh, of course, because since he was the president, he's also my president as of now, and will be my president, because our country, during his time, is really in a good situation," the Trump supporter replied.

"I love President Trump, and he's always been my president, and we need him," she explained. "We need him in our country. We need God in our country, not only in America, but around the world. We need him."

"We love him, and we'll support him all the way," she insisted.
