A Trump voter described her disappointment with President Donald Trump as he made a stop in Iowa this week in an attempt to try and convince voters that he is focused on the economy.

MS NOW's Vaughn Hillyard spoke with a woman in Clive, Iowa, who was a former Trump supporter who has since changed her mind on the president. The woman, whose name was not shared during the interview, had a sharp critique of his first year in office after returning for a second term and indicated she was no longer supporting the GOP.

"He needs to get his act together, and our representatives here in Iowa need to stop following his lead. I'm not voting Republican again," she said.

Hillyard asked if she ever voted for Trump.

"First time around and he did a good job, but then he got stupid," she said.

The voter described her dissatisfaction with Trump and what she really thought of him.

"It's all about him. He thinks he's God and he's going to take over the world," she added.

The Trump administration has faced a series of increased criticisms.

Trump, whose Republican Party has expected to face a tough midterm battle, was aiming to use the rally and speech Tuesday in Clive, Iowa, to try and convince Americans that he has his eyes on the economy. A number of protesters were outside the rally calling attention to the administration's aggressive immigration policies and the ICE killing of 37-year-olds Alex Pretti and Renee Good in nearby Minneapolis.

Iowa resident: Trump needs to get his act together, and our representatives here in Iowa need to stop following his lead. I'm not voting Republican again. Trump thinks he's God and he's going to take over the world.
