I look at it this way. I’m unsure that Donald Trump would respect the role of a President with Constitutionally limited powers.

Being the only one playing by the rules of the Constitution just isn't going to work anymore. The govt is too broken. So I have to focus on his policies which I agree with more than any other.

I perceive your argument as being an admission that the Constitution is a dead letter. It may well be. Without an effort to restore it, you are left with voting for the dictator who you think will please you most. However, this is fraught with peril in the following ways:

1. The dictator who pleases you most is still a dictator;

2. The next dictator elected may not please you at all;

3. The dictator after that may not be elected by anyone.

We need to fight to restore our Constitution and Natural Rights, and restore the limits on our government. Without doing that, the American people will no longer be separated into "left" or "right." We will all be slaves.
