Day 4 - 2/20

 

This morning we heard from Professor Scott Huffman who runs the Winthrop poll. His presentation was very interesting and he taught us about priming, framing, and word choice and how all of these can affect a respondent's opinion. 
After, we headed straight to Greenville, SC to get in line for Trump's Town Hall with Fox 
News and Laura Ingraham. This event was so cool, and much bigger than the one we watched fro Nikki Haley. It was extremely exciting to see Former President Donald Trump as well as his secret service detail. I have never been in the same room with someone so famous before so this was a great opportunity for me, even though we didn't get to meet him.

RTWH2024 Intro

My name is Ellie, I am a Junior and I will be interning for the Trump Campaign. When first interviewing for a spot in this class, I was unaware of the preparation necessary to have a smooth, successful internship experience in South Carolina. However, I am almost positive that all of the hard work will be worth it!

Day 2 - 2/18

Today we went to Fox News' Town Hall with Nikki Haley hosted by John Roberts. I thought this was a super neat experience as we got to watch the process of live television being made. After, we got the change to say hello and get a picture with Nikki Haley.  Then, the other Trump interns and I went to a campaign office in Columbia where we met some other campaign managers and interns from USC who were all extremely helpful and intelligent. We did some more phone banking before heading back to the hotel for dinner.   

Day 1 - 2/17

  My first day campaigning for Trump in SC was super exciting! We got to learn about and participate in phone banking and canvassing. At the end of the day, we got to meet with former White House Deputy Press Secretary Hogan Gidley. He was so insightful and gave us an opportunity to ask any questions! Made it on the leaderboard for phonebanking in the Trump office!
