Where are J'cans on Trump?

Dear Editor,I want to shout out to all supporters of US President Donald Trump with Jamaican ancestry. Even though they're few of us, history will judge us correctly that we were on the right side - nationalism over globalisation, the common man over the elite, conservatism over liberalism, and substance over perceived good behaviour.I always wanted to see a poll done in Jamaica of the position held on Trump versus Joe Biden.
