There are "endless reasons" to run from all the currently available candidates.

Many of the "reasons" each person goes with, are lies told by their opponent, which they choose to take as the word of god.

When Trump FIRST began this campaign, way back when, I liked the fact that he was the first person to at least CLAIM to be Republican, who stated firmly that accomplishing change in the country, would require SPENDING MONEY, and that just saying self-righteous crap wouldn't work. He said then, that if we actually wanted to get illegals out of the country, that unlike the rest of the GOP, he would support expanding the INS, giving them greater powers, and giving them enough money to actually GET illegals out.

Unfortunately, after that great start, pretty much everything else he said and did, proved that he doesn't know, and refuses to learn, how anything to do with leading a nation actually works. Most of his other "proposals" are bound to result in American economic collapse, the loss of most of our allies, and the rapid supremacy of Russia and China on the world stages.

Igor, your an intelligent guy. The economy is already wrecked. It does not get "more", wrecked.

Now the reason people like Trump is he is a non politician. When Trump wins, he will be the first independent American president to take office since George Washington!

Hes not bought and paid for by the elitest crowd from Washington DC and all the lobbiests.

Besides the President does not need to be a sleazzy Washingtonite to lead our country. They way things have been run into the toilet, Heck, even you or I or anyone could do a better job.

Pesonally, i think Trump winning the Republican Nomination is the biggest **** you to Washington from...
WE THE PEOPLE

Politics as usual, (both republicans and democrats) have turned this nation into a 3rd world banana republic, with boarded up buildings and foreclosed housing on every block, and the destruction of the foundations of our law.

Trump resonates with the real problems and needs of the people which can only be fixed by starting with and holding our public trustees accountable to the oath they swore when entering office.

They are the trustees and exist to serve us, not we to make them filthy rich while we are put out on the street and standing in soup lines resulting from ongoing policies that are 'designed' to fail.

Trump despite his mostly superficial shortcomings at least offers a glimmer of hope in contrast to bought and paid for HRC who insists we jump from the frying pan further into the fire.

We may never again see anyone with enough money to run for president without first selling their soul entirely to the devil.

Don't trust Clinton to avoid stupid wars: Glenn Reynolds
Glenn Harlan Reynolds 3:16 a.m. EDT November 2, 2016
The world she had a big hand in making as secretary of State doesn't look very peaceful.

President Lyndon Johnson, running for reelection in 1964 against Sen. Barry Goldwater of Arizona, released perhaps the most famous political advertisement of all time. As Smithsonian Magazine describes it: “A 3-year-old girl in a simple dress counted as she plucked daisy petals in a sun-dappled field. Her words were supplanted by a mission-control countdown followed by a massive nuclear blast in a classic mushroom shape. The message was clear if only implicit: Presidential candidate Barry Goldwater was a genocidal maniac who threatened the world’s future.”

Goldwater, we were supposed to think, was a crazy guy who’d get us into a stupid war. Except it turned out that LBJ, crazy or not, was the one who got us into a stupid war, escalating to the point where, at its peak, we had 538,000 soldiers in Vietnam. That led to a famous political joke: “They told me if I voted for Goldwater, we’d have half a million soldiers in Vietnam. And sure enough, I voted for Goldwater — and we’ve got half a million soldiers in Vietnam.” By the time the war was over, more than 58,000 Americans were dead.

Now it’s Hillary Clinton who’s sounding LBJ’s theme. Trump, she says, is crazy and will get us into a stupid war. And she’s enlisted the Daisy ad girl, now all grown up, to make her point.

Not everyone is buying it. Green Party presidential candidate Jill Stein says Clinton is more dangerous than Trump: “Under Hillary Clinton, we could slide into nuclear war very quickly following her declared policy in Syria.”


The world today, which Clinton as Obama’s secretary of state had a big hand in making, doesn't look very peaceful. In 2010, things in Iraq were so peaceful that Joe Biden was bragging that the administration’s Iraq policy would be “one of the great achievements of this administration.” In 2012, with Clinton still serving as secretary of State, President Obama bragged about “ending” the war in Iraq, which would be news to the thousands of U.S. troops fighting there today.

Then there’s Libya. According to The New York Times, Clinton played a "critical” role in persuading Obama to topple Libyan strongman Moammar Gadhafi. This led to what The Atlantic''s Conor Friedersdorf calls her ”failed war in Libya.” Despite her pronouncement that "We came, we saw, he died” after Gadhafi's death, the Libya intervention has been a debacle, and one that Clinton has refused to acknowledge as such.

As Charles Kubic wrote in June, it’s been a huge disaster:

Before the revolution, Libya was a secure, prospering, secular Islamic country and a critical ally providing intelligence on terrorist activity post–September 11, 2001. Gadhafi was no longer a threat to the United States. Yet Secretary of State Hillary Clinton strongly advocated and succeeded in convincing the administration to support the Libyan rebels. . . . Secretary Clinton’s war actually did make a difference. It led to a very real and very tragic humanitarian disaster. Her bad judgment and failed policy resulted in the arming of terrorists, months of war and tens of thousands of casualties.

If Clinton could do that much damage as secretary of State, how much might she do as president? You’d think that, with this record, she’d at least be embarrassed to position herself as the peace candidate, but that would require her to be capable of embarrassment, something that few politicians are.

When Clinton tweeted that Trump’s temperament meant that he couldn’t be trusted with nuclear weapons, Tennessee state senator Frank Niceley replied, ”I wouldn’t trust you with a Christmas card list.”

Given her email track record, he may be right. But the question of whether she is trustworthy when it comes to avoiding stupid wars isn’t nearly as clear as she, and her admakers, would like you to believe.

I am not a Trump fan but I think he is the better of the evils. I think a lot of people are tired of what we have had and this is their way of speaking out. Trump (no political office) is giving Hiliary a run for her money (career politician). To me that says a lot

I see the same thing in both candidates - LIAR LIAR Pants on FIRE!


What I think others might see in Trump is that he is not a career politician and he claims he will bring jobs back to the USA --- I can see the draw in that promise, but I don't think he'll do what he says, once he gets what he wants.


I voted for Arnold Swartzenegger (however you spell that) when he ran for Govenor of California - because I thought the same things people are thinking of Trump.

He's got his own money, he is in there for the right reasons.

He was one of the worst, ever! In the end, he's rich and looks out for the rich.

I think Trump will do the same.

My 3 cents. :)

For me, having Hillary in the white house will be 4 more years of what we have experienced for the last 8 years. ( and I voted for Obama the 1st time around because I actually though he would make a difference.. I was wrong)

frankly, the Dems have had their chance and nothing of substance have come from it. Crime (especially inner city) is totally out of control, I.SI.S. has not been defeated although we have the ways, means, tech & manpower to do it. American jobs are stagnant, NFTA is a joke.

Hillary states she "has plans" although she has not stated what those plans actually are. Anyone can boast that.. anyone.

I actually feel that she will be much worst them Obama.. I truly feel tha she is a person who has demonstrated that she is in this for one reason.. her own personal gain. I have no trust in her. And I do not believe her words. And I know I stated this before, but her inability to do her job cost lives. She abandoned Americans who trusted her, then tried to weasel out of it. and that (in my book) is totally inexcusable.

Trump is not a ideal choice either.. not by a long shot. He has many flaws. He has a big mouth and doesn't know when to shut it. At times he acts like a child. He has a very good business mind, but lacks international politics experience. I think he will turn the tide on foreign trade and like subjects. And get a handle on illegal immigrants and crime. A key is for him to surround himself with experienced political advisers ( his cabinet) and then actually LISTEN to them.

At the end of the day, I do believe he has our best interests in mind, but he uses a approach never seen in US. politics before. He does have the balls to say what most Americans are thinking.. he is not PC. And that in itself is refreshing.

So, I will vote Trump, The one I feel will hurt us less.

Hilary has had 40 years to prove she could do good at HER JOB, and be a law abiding citizen. ..she has failed on both accounts.

Trump hasn't proved himself in politics, but he has proved he is good at HIS JOB and has done so WiTHIN THE LAW.

She he made mistakes, but he turned them around, USING laws to his advantage. .he could have taken other routes (insurance fraude etc, which im sure Hilary would've done)

I see two people, one in the field that has already shown she's a piss poor employee

and one trying to switch careers who has shown that he is an excellent employee in another field, and has proven he can get the job done...
