The same thing I hear (see) on here and what I hear and see elsewhere. If you support Trump, you are considered to be A. Stupid B. A Neanderthal C. Anti woman D. A woman hater E.

So..there we have it. Now nobody needs to come out and be public in support of Trump b/c the backlash that would inevitably follow is listed above.

Yeah. I agree.diamondseeker2006|1465258938|4040937 said:I can't imagine that anyone who is voting for him would actually come to this thread and admit it as it's kind of a set up for torture. Of course, I would also be equally ashamed to admit voting for Hillary. So when I vote, my current plans are to write in someone with character and integrity. I have thought in the past that there were elections where I really didn't fully embrace one candidate, but this one takes the cake for all time.

Protecting The Constitution and The Bill of Rights, a strong military, creating strong borders with highly controlled immigration, Supreme Court nominations and making trade deals that work in favor the US citizens and workers are my biggest concerns.

I don't like either party (equally) so I either vote Third Party or I don't vote at all.

Unfortunately, I think we are in "the perfect storm". Political thinking has diverged into two opposite extremes where no compromises seem to be possible. Each side digs in and the holes are so big we may bury ourselves. Trump has captured the antagonism felt by a good number of Americans over political correctness. He shows his supporters he's with them on that. He allows them to express some of what they want to say by his words.

I really agreed with your whole post. But this part in particular spoke to me.
You are very right. And as Andy Borowitz pointed out. While we MAY succeed in defeating Trumps run to the white house, all those people who voted for him will still be there and so will the now obvious wounds we have in our country. And (this part is me), I don't think HRC is the right president to heal those wounds. I don't really know who would be. But I am sorry to say, I don't think it's her. Or ANY politician I can think of.
