I can live with Trump, but I would have preferred Cruz. I wasn't a huge supporter, but I thought the man was the better ideological and philosophical choice. I likewise thought he deserved better from the people for whom he has fought in the past. I thought he deserved better than the hateful vitriol that has been thrown at him.
That being said, I have high hopes for Trump. I think Trump will do some very important things, like Clamp down on Immigration. I think he will see that the United States benefits from better trading relations. I think he will focus on reviving the economy.
Where I worry about him is on Judicial appointments, and going along with Big Government ideas. (The same worry I had with George HW Bush.)
But I can't grasp the need for people to buy into the smear campaigns. Why did we need to post smears for either candidate? Why did anyone feel the need to go find these backwater tin-foil hat sources just so they could spread some malignant rumor or false accusations about either man?
This isn't how grown ups do things. This is how irresponsible children do things.
“This isn’t how grown ups do things. This is how irresponsible children do things.”
I agree. The compulsion to isolate, insult, and demean people WE NORMALLY LIKE AND SUPPORT just because they support a different candidate is childish.
