Quite simply, I voted (past tense, so can't change it anyway) for several reasons. The main one is Trump has no filter, none whatsoever. If he thinks it, he says it. If he wants it, he grabs it. If he's mad, he'll have a temper tantrum. If you get him mad, he'll get even. I don't want someone like that having the power to push a nuclear button. Also, as I've said previously, Hillary is closer to my core beliefs -- birth control, education ... I don't like all of her past deeds. Her email server issue showed poor judgment, which doesn't thrill me but I can't put it at a criminal level. I blame the State Department as a whole rather than just Clinton for Benghazi. My big issues and questions go to the Clinton Foundation, its donors and fees paid to the Clintons. I'm still trying to get more facts on those questions. I did not vote blindly nor emotionally. I read and listened to people on both sides of the aisle and found as many neutral sources as possible for Clinton's issues. I ignored conjecture, rumors, campaign rhetoric as much as possible. Trump actually took little research. It was simply a matter of watching him in action over the past two years (I really did pretty much ignore the garbage he spewed prior to that).

Interesting. You gave a bunch of reasons NOT to vote for Hillary.
As for Trump's mouth, did you REALLY check it thoroughly? Almost everything he said regarding vulgarity in public, was because he was attacked by a scumbag actress, Rosy O'. She deserved it. The private recorded conversation was just that, private and I have heard worst from my neighbors here in the Villages and much worst from my time in the service or in construction. On the other hand, look at how vulgar Hillary's language is and her treatment of other people. I am sure that in your effort to isolate yourself from anything negative about her, probably because she is a woman, you will assume that all those people that claimed she was mean and vulgar must have had some grudge against her.
Trump is crude, but apparently America needs crude to bring it back to what it used to be, GREAT. And no I did not vote for Trump in the primary but I did vote for him last week. I have come to the conclusion that conservatives have got to quit fighting the political fight civilly when the opposition insists on being dirty. And yes, they are dirty. They were dirty to McCain and Palin and they were dirty to Romney and Ryan. If the left wishes to cry about someone fighting dirty, then they should have not changed the rules.
Regarding where I stand ideologically, it is conservative. I wouldn't vote for Hillary if she was squeaky clean, and she is far from that. She is for abortion, Gov subsidized Planned Parenthood, gun control, anti-police, hates the military, does not believe in Free Enterprise, wants socialized health care, is careless of our national security secrets, believes in a large government and cares less about the national debt. I am against those views, so yes I am voting the opposite. I'm a patriotic American. I believe in America, not just one person. It would be easy for me to ignore it all and just enjoy my life in the Villages, but I didn't invest so much of myself into my country to turn my back on it while spoiled liberals attempt to destroy our Freedoms.
