Why do people vote for Erdoğan?

What are the good parts of Erdoğan?

I’ve travelled to turkey lots of times, it’s a country I love to visit! I’ve always seen lots of Atatürk flags hanging about or posters of him in shops, so why do the people like him, and vote for Erdoğan is it not contradictory?

I am struggling to find why he is president, the only good things I could find online is that he built an airport recently & he was alright for the economy in his very first years.

But the list of bad things goes on, extreme censorship, ruined the economy, worsened living conditions, human rights violations, political Islam in a political secular country, nationalism. It’s like his aim is to worsen the country? It seems he’s ruined the country so bad that everyone’s dream is to leave, how can anyone vote for him?

Are there any good sides of him that we aren’t told about on western media? Or are his supporters completely brainwashed?
