I've been an avid Bernie supporter, but with him out of the race (I hate to admit it, but it's true) why should I vote for a center-right corporate shill that won't change anything and will just keep the same bs policies in place?
Donald Trump agrees with Bernie on trade, and prior to his campaigning has said he wants a single payer healthcare system, and that Republicans can't take away the social programs and expect to win. He's said a lot of other very progressive things, things more progressive than Hillary. It's only while he's been running that he's said things to appeal to the dumb dumbs of this country, like banning Muslims and building a wall and making Mexico pay for it. I don't buy that, he's just saying that shit for the crowd. Sure I don't like what he had to say about privatizing SSI, as that shit doesn't work in all the countries that tried it. That however is only one small issue I have with the real Trump. Will he nominate a conservative SCOTUS judge or so, maybe but I don't really know.
Trump is a Republican, but he's a very liberal Republican, which is something you don't see very much today. Maybe he can bring back some sense to the party, or maybe he could destroy it. Either one of those would be good.
So the question that I'm asking you today, is why should I vote for Hillary over Trump? Hillary hasn't accomplished much, she's voted on racist legislation, she doesn't have much integrity, and she can be bought. Trump on the other hand has gone from having at most $40,000,000 to at least $300,000,000 dollars. Any way you slice it, that is an accomplishment. Trump can't be bought because he already has a lot of money. As for integrity, well, sure he evades taxes and has bought politicians like Hillary, but other than that, what has he really done that's so terrible? I mean he's thrown a few fits over some real estate deals that he couldn't reach and tried to take over some farm land and stuff. His university may be a bit of a scam, maybe. Is there anything else though?
Both Hillary and Trump know how to play the system to get what they want. The difference is, Trump knows more about the private sector than most politicians, including Hillary. This means he knows what will be good for business and what won't be. He might be able to bring back employment for Americans, where as Hillary will continue to support trade deals that ship them over seas, and make the working class of this country compete with people making pennies an hour. Trump on the other hand wants a 35% tax rate on foreign goods, specifically on imported cars. Considering it's the automotive industry that employs a great deal of people in this country, we certainly need to prevent those jobs from leaving to Mexico.
I really hate to say this, but I'm leaning towards voting for Trump.
