This is going to get off topic, but I'll address it here. If you want another response, we should probably start a new thread.
Because it must be quite a staggering list indeed, to sway you to vote for a woman that you clearly find objectionable and even contemptible.
Thanks in advance, good sir.
Trump, beyond race-baiting and misogynistic dog-whistling, has a number of obvious problems that totally disqualify him from the presidency. So, for me, if you say that Mexicans are rapists and murderers, and "probably" some of them are good people, that disqualifies you automatically in my book --but if that doesn't disqualify him in your book, then let's keep going. Let's start with the first obvious problem which is that Trump doesn't have an ideology, and that's the chief source of his lies. He gets in front of audiences, and then
changes his mind almost literally every time he's in front of a new crowd. Because of this, Donald Trump lies about 5 times every week, if I had to put a rough guesstimate on the part of the primary and general elections that I've followed; that's not an exaggeration or hyperbole. Some of it is innocuous, but a lot of it isn't. Foreign policy is the worst, because it oscillates from
I don't want to be involved in the middle-east, to
let's do unthinkable torture and
let's murder innocent civilians just to prove a point, and that he wants to
"bomb the s*** out of [ISIS]". And he's lied about being publicly against the Iraq War, because he supported the Iraq War publicly before we entered, and now says in private he disagreed with it. Oh yeah, a confirmed Trump advisor was asked, repeatedly, by Trump
why we don't use nuclear weapons more often. If it's starting to look like this guy: A.) Doesn't know a goddamn thing. B.) Doesn't care enough to know a goddamn thing, then you're probably correct.
Trump isn't merely boorish, the dude seriously mocked a disabled person for being disabled (and then
lied about mocking this disabled person), he race-baits (that's why he doesn't call black people "niggers," but boy,
his supporters do at his rallies and even assault old women), and the fact that ranking KKK members have endorsed him. I can corroborate this with my own experience of knowing several Trump supporters who are closet racists and support him because of racism. His ban on Muslims (
which he's lied about, as well) is deplorable. His official, top campaign coordinator
physically assaulted a member of the press that he didn't like, and he was never fired or disciplined for it.
And that's to say nothing of his stated policies, which were written for him (and because he's a lazy SOB, we know that
it will be carried out) by Michael Pence and his cohorts, who're right-wing extremists (Just look at how hard he's screwed Indiana, even people in Indiana hate him for how much of a right-wing fanatic he is). The stated policies are just the more severe Reaganomics, which, for the record, is what destroyed, right alongside NAFTA, the poor white communities that are now flocking to Trump. In fact, pretty much every estimate I've read would lead to
increased debt while shafting the middle-class and the poor. So Trump doesn't give a damn about helping poor white Americans, this is all to activate the pleasure center in his brain associated to blind adoration.
So yes, Hillary is less awful, in my opinion.
