When deciding who to support I always balance the candidates’ conservatism with their likelihood of victory. Then I vote for the candidate with the best ratio. We are a long way out from the election. At this point it appears that Trump is the most conservative candidate with the greatest chance of victory. (between Hillary, a not yet named third party, Gary Johnson, etc...)
Right now it looks like Trump has a decent shot at beating Hillary. He is very liberal on issues of big government power, personal liberty, free markets, religious freedom, sanctity of life, etc... He is conservative on issues of national sovereignty and immigration. A lot can change in 6 months.
He could come out and publicly support even more liberal policies than he already does. He could soften or abandon the conservative rhetoric he has been using. The Democrats could pull the rug out from under Hillary and put up a candidate that polls better than him by 20 points. Who knows.
It’s telling that you didn’t even deny that you now think in “binary” terms (Trump = good / Not Trump = bad) You are no better than the black voters who don’t understand the issues or the policies or the principals but just understand that Democrat = good / Republican = bad. Like them, you will be used. You will become the useful idiot.
Trump is not a deity. He is just a VERY flawed man who currently appears to be the best shot at defeating socialism. That is all.
Well IMHO, your right in your opinion, but I am right in mine...but does that give you the right to say to me what you did?

No I don’t think it did...and how do you get around ‘the black voter’ statement...isn’t that a bit over the top? How would you feel if someone said the things you just said to me, you probably wouldn’t like it...but because I have been all over the United States, met a lot of people, in different occupations, I would imagine that your not to well equipped with what people are, what they are saying, what they are doing, the hardships they are facing...
But I have always put myself above a hateful, spiteful group of people by knowing that they just are not educated enough to make a sound decision...
Thank you for trying to smear me in your opinion...one of these days you might run into someone with your attitude and find yourself on the ground wondering how you got there so fast...

It’s quite telling you ignore Lee’s outrageous Anti-Trump behavior to slavishly defend him.
Speaking of flawed men: where is Ted Cruz? Apparently he didn’t think this battle was worth fighting and is taking a powder in Mexico.
That is all? Some here might think that is more than enough while some think stirring the pot will some how magically produce the perfect candidate. Others here think that strategy is more likely to create martial law. But keep it up otherwise this forum might get boring. </s>
