I'm going with Trump because of the odds. With Hillary, I'm 99% sure of what I'm going to get; namely, a person who's shown unbelievably poor judgement and a person committed to extending the policies of Obama for 4 more years.
With Trump, I can't be sure of what I'm going to get. There's a 50% chance he'll really change things for the better. That means, of course, that there's a 50% chance he'll exacerbate America's problems. I'll take my 50% odds of Trump doing a good job, over my 99% percent odds that Hillary will continue with decisions really bad for America.
What puzzles me are people, who should logically be supporting Trump, voicing opposition to Trump. they include some of the following:
Danial Pipes -- I am impressed with this man's analyses of the Middle East.
Ted Cruz -- A savvy politician who has allowed personal pique to cloud his mind.
Jeb Bush and John Kasich -- Old establishment GOPers who resent fresh blood.
Fundamentalist Christians who object to Trump (a really small minority)
Some find Trump not "pure" enough. Others, don't like a newcomer running off with their party's standard. Others are simply poor losers. What they all fail to understand, or simply won't acknowledge, is that we are all faced with a binary choice; namely, it's either Hillary or Trump. There is no realistic third choice. If you support Republican values but feel Trump doesn't live up to those values, or up to Christian values, how will rejecting Trump help you get closer to your goals when it clearly enables a person opposed to your goals to become president? How can those who espouse conservative values, who espouse Christian values find that to be a satisfactory outcome? And, how can anyone who loves Israel vote for someone who will extend the policies of Obama for 4 or 8 more years.
I see no choice other than voting for Trump.
