i get the allure of trump by some people, because he represents (supposedly) someone who hasn't been in politics most of his life.
But a broader and more realistic/honest view reveals that he's been one of those who have perverted our system...by exercising his power (money) to sway politicians.
Look no further than our own state, unless you think bondi's refusal to investigate trump university after a $25,000 contribution to her reelection campaign...was just a coincidence.
So we are now supposed to believe that he's had some kind of conversion and will be the one to change things...because he knows how corrupt the system has become?
Or that he will lead the charge in changing the tax code, which allowed him to avoid paying personal federal income taxes for decades...because of his own poor business decisions?
Suuuure.
As i said, having an 'outsider' has its appeal and quite frankly, i would jump on board with the right candidate.
The problem being, that of those who could have taken the role of outsider and coalesced support from those of us who want to shake up the
'good old boys club'...trump has shown to be the absolute worst choice.
Since these are the only two legitimate choices we have this time, one then needs to ask themselves who is the best qualified and has the best temperament to lead this country and represent us to the rest of the world?
Anyone who still believes that person is trump, has made a conscious decision to put their own hatred of hillary... Ahead of the best interests of this great nation.
Trump has shown time and time again that he is not only too thin-skinned to be able to deal with all of the extremely complicated problems facing this nation...but he's actually quite clueless in how a constitutional republic works.
He hasn't shown where he even has a clue (by his complete lack of mentioning how he wil need to work with congress) that being potus...is not the same as being a 'king' or a ceo of a company.
So while i will hold my nose when pulling the lever for hillary, i can at least sleep at night and look at myself in the mirror in the morning...knowing that she is the best choice for my country.
