Well, I’ve voted all my life for various politicians who are almost all lawyers. And I’ve tried to vote for the ones who mostly stood for what I believe, that is, conservative/libertarian values.

Sometimes I’ve voted for a candidate/politician BECAUSE of the candidate/politician that they were running against, i.e., Dole versus Clinton, McCain versus Obama, Romney versus Obama...

And then again in the 2010, 2012 and 2014 Congressional elections.

I had so much hope for the Republicans when they won the Senate in 2014. Those hopes were DASHED.

I am no longer inclined to vote for a Washington lawyer politician. We need someone/someones totally new.

Maybe Trump would be just as bad, but maybe not. I’m willing to find out.

However, I’m not going to vote in the same old same old only to expect better results.

Insanity can be defined as beating your head against a wall repeatedly, only hoping it won’t hurt with each subsequent smack. I’m done doing that.

I’m beginning to believe that the Donald is about the best non lawyer candidate we will ever get. (truth be known one of my best friends is a prominet lawyer in town....)

Another sad truth. It’s easy to beat up on lawyers until you actually need one. Then it’s a different story......

AB that is the best explanation I have seen on the net of why people are mad at politicians.
