Gene Ho

Here's an interesting testimony from a photographer named Gene Ho. Ho became a photographer for Trump before anyone took Trump seriously and he stayed with Trump for two years as his campaign photographer (2015-2017).

Yet Ho was politically liberal. He had a lucrative photography business that employed 25 photographers. He had photographed Hollywood celebrities and professional athletes. He constantly traveled and had fun. However, after he came to know Trump, whom Ho had expected to dislike, Ho found himself admiring Trump. Ho eventually endorsed Trump for president.

When Trump won, all his photographers left him because they disliked Trump, Ho suddenly found himself with an extremely "brutal" IRS audit, and he went broke. His family had been on the rocks even before this and Ho was even considering divorcing his wife and leaving her and their kids. Now he was struggling to provide for his own family.

Ho was tempted with an offer of a $1 million advance from a book publisher on the condition that he publish a photography book about Trump but the book had to be critical of Trump. This would likely mean Ho would also make millions more dollars after the book was published. Yet Ho knew if he did that, then he'd have to lie about Trump, or even make up stories about Trump, but in truth Ho had nothing critical to say about Trump.

At this dark moment, Ho turned to God and became a Christian.
