I don't care to hear how much you hate him or her as that has been discussed to death. What would be real tangible differences in everything around you?
The most tangible difference might be economic, but I don't know how hard Trump is going to push to keep jobs in the USA and what mechanisms he will use. Federal subsidies could boost the economy during his term(s) versus a likely recession/correction under Hillary.
Diplomatic relations will likely be different and I suspect overall for the worse. Action on issues like climate change and gay rights will be different, though I suspect the former will get more attention than the latter. Obamacare could be on the road to becoming useless or being overturned under GOP rule, whereas I assume Hillary would have fought to keep it and perhaps grow it. And of course, the Supreme Court will potentially look very different after 4/8 years of Trump than it would have under Clinton.
"Well, evolution is a theory. It is also a fact. And facts and theories are different things, not rungs in a hierarchy of increasing certainty. Facts are the world's data. Theories are structures of ideas that explain and interpret facts. Facts don't go away when scientists debate rival theories to explain them. Einstein's theory of gravitation replaced Newton's in this century, but apples didn't suspend themselves in midair, pending the outcome. And humans evolved from ape- like ancestors whether they did so by Darwin's proposed mechanism or by some other yet to be discovered."
