Carrie_On Posted February 12 Share Posted February 12 It’s worth noting that Triston is only 15 and is probably just parroting whatever he’s heard his family say. From what Ryan said on Kelly and Mark today, Triston and his mom have experienced homelessness and we all know how Trump pretends to be for poor people. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Who should have made the top 24 instead of him Like Bradley Rittman, michael rice, Alto Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
m1key Posted February 12 Share Posted February 12 Something that amuses me is the juxtaposition between Triston having his pronouns in his bio and also the Trump photo in his feed I do agree that we should not be too hard on him for his beliefs because he is still only 15 (and was 13 when he made the Trump post). That being said, he should know as a member of Gen Z to be careful what posts he has on his feed - especially when he is about to go on National television.

Whereas Alejandro was from urban L.A. yet a lot of people here didn't like him. Two things to note: First, I didn't know how MAGA Laine was at the time (or I'd forgotten). Also, I'm not sure that I was quite as anti-Trump as I am now. Second, I honestly didn't think that Alejandro was a good enough singer. A great songwriter, yes. A fine musician, yes. A good singer? Not really. And I voted for Madison more than Laine that season. That was the main reason why I didn't vote for Alejandro. 5 hours ago, Carrie_On said: It’s worth noting that Triston is only 15 and is probably just parroting whatever he’s heard his family say.

Well, I'll cut Triston a little slack because he's just 15. And the fact that he and his mom experienced homelessness is sad enough that even though I won't vote for him, I'll cut him more slack.

TeamAudra Posted February 13 Share Posted February 13 I hate almost every politician (including Trump, FWIW), so if I limited myself to contestants who agree with me on everything, I’d be screwed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TeamAudra Posted February 13 Share Posted February 13 I would suggest to any of them, don’t post about political stuff on social media. Nobody cares what you think, outside of a few online partisans. 99% of the audience won’t see Triston’s IG account, and probably dont care anyway.

Carrie_On Posted February 16 Share Posted February 16 Triston’s audition was posted by American Idol. He’s a sweet, mature, polite 15 year old. He’ll get the granny votes for sure. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TeamAudra Posted February 16 Share Posted February 16 He’s very personable, has a compelling backstory, and a deep Southern drawl. Seems like a contender to me, as long as he can sing well enough. I could even see myself voting for him, depending on the circumstances. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
