I have 232 and definitely have some Trump supporters in there. One is my aunt and it drives me nuts. A couple are only trump supporters because they HATE Hillary and thinks he is less evil (their words). I got into it with one a few weeks ago. Dumbass!!

There are a few people I suspect are voting for Trump but don't want to advertise it on FB. The outspoken Trump supporters were booted a long time ago. I did engage before he was named the official nominee, but I realized that you can't fix stupid.

I had one facebook acquaintance who is pro-Trump and I deleted her last night. She wasn't posting rational things. My Facebook feed consists mostly of subtle Hilary supporters (people who like different articles and memes but rarely post) and people who don't post anything at all. My most vocal Hilary supporters last night were actually my Canadian friends, lol.
No one supporting Trump but I have a cousin saying she can't support either candidate & will probably vote third party & then another person who has been sharing third party candidate info all morning.
I have two uncles, a cousin, and a cousin-in-law who are Trump supporters, and I have one girl who swears she's not so I guess likes his Facebook posts in her sleep. They're all hidden.
ETA- I do have a bunch who are thrilled with neither, and at least two who are voting Gary Johnson.
There are a couple members of DH's extended family that are Trump supporters. They have been pretty quiet today. In all actuality, even Hillary supporters have been quiet on Facebook today.

I have 121 friends, down 1 from yesterday when I defriended an actual, if distant, friend (not a foaf, I mean) for a particularly disgusting Muslim-as-terrorist meme. I know I have some pro-Trump but they are all pretty quiet about it.

Zero, after unfriending someone from high school last week. I didn't even know this person that well so it was no loss.
I also unfriended one really awful Bernie bro. I was only keeping him on there (and hidden) because he was dating my friend. The second I learned they broke up, he was gone.

I rarely post anything political on my FB, but I did last night. No one's said anything negative, so it makes me think I don't have too many trump supporters.
What's sad is that my parents and brother, who usually like everything I post did not like this, and purple I haven't talked to in years have. I know my brother is a low key supporter, and I'm baffled. He's married to a Peruvian woman who wasn't here all that legally before they met, and they have a son.

My SD posted "[hashtag]Trump" WTF SD? Literally in July the girls and I were in the car and they were arguing that teens should have the right to vote.
No SD and this is why. By the way I'm selling your Kanye tickets and I will never buy you a car now.
I have 213 friends, and no one who is showing up in my feed it outright supporting Trump, but given the geographic region of some of these people (mainly old HS acquaintances) I have to have a couple of silent Trump supporters in there somewhere. But the people who are annoying me the most right now are people claiming they are both equally evil.
No you fucking idiots, they are not. She's wholly qualified, has actually experience, legit policies, and will surround herself with competent advisors. He's an unhinged, narcissistic, megalomaniac who won't listen to anyone and will probably bring about WWIII. THEY ARE NOT THE SAME!
I have unfriended all of the vocal Trump supporters on my FB. I am pretty sure I have more family members who will be voting for him and are not outspoken about it.

I unfriended my two vocal Trump supporters (they turned out to be super racist assholes so it wasn't just about Trump). So far no new ones have turned up. I wouldn't be shocked if a few of my friends (in the US) are secretly Trump supporters but don't post it on FB.

Trump supporters were mostly silent today, although I have unfollowed those I've noticed in the past. I had one acquaintance write a long rant about Hillary and wonder how anyone with a moral conscious could vote for her. (Wtf) And one other person, an old teacher of mine, wonder why Lester Holt wasn't as hard on Hillary as he was on Trump.

I am sure there are a few Chump - I mean, Trump supporters mixed in my friends list. The ones that have been extremely outspoken in support of him, I've removed, but others I've simply unfollowed and put on my restricted list because they are family members (on H's side although I have a few on my side of the family too that seem to be supporting this nutjob). I'm sure some people have unfriended/unfollowed me as well, but I don't even notice anyway, nor do I give 2 fucks, since my list is almost maxed out.
I do have a few friends that intend to vote 3rd party, but overall, the general consensus is that Trump needs to be stopped at all costs, so who knows what they will do between now and election day.
I have 289 and have seen exactly one pro-trump post, but I do have a lot of people hidden. I will say, I see a lot of anti-Hillary posts, most of my FB friends seem to be planning to vote for Johnson.
