Some I support and some I do not.

That's an odd equivocation. It's virtually impossible to agree 100% with any candidate, heck I didn't agree with everything Reagan did.

I find Trump to be the candidate I agree with more than any other since Reagan. I support him whole heartedly, without reservation.

The way you put it, it sounds like you are holding your nose to vote for him, like we all did for McCain and Romney. I'm curious as to why you implied that, and what reasons you will give for what you said.

I'm not trying to pick a fight, but what do you find in Trump that upsets you? Honest question.

I was responding to this post here. That may clarify why I chose the wording I did.

I have some reservations on some of his positions, but I still support Trump in November and I will be voting for him. The alternative is too terrible to contemplate.

"Holding your nose" is your term, not mine. Do I agree with Trump on all things? No. Specifically I don't agree with his promise to leave entitlements untouched, I don't agree with is proposal to replace Obamacare rather than just repeal it, I don't agree with his proposals to cut taxes and increase spending without offsetting spending cuts. But what is the alternative? Increased spending in all areas. Increased taxes. Expanded Obamacare. So given that the choice is a no brainer. I don't view that as "holding my nose". I view that as voting for the better of two candidates.
