These were some good selections. My main point was that there were voters that disliked Hillary so much, they voted for Trump. They may not have knew that much about Trump, they may not have liked him that well, but they did not want Lyin' Hillary to win. I liked Trump for many reasons but I believe there were voters out there that chose him because they did not want Hillary to win.
4. I often wonder what % of voters bailed on Lyin' Hillary, when the last email (Comey) scandal-fiasco happened just days before the election?
Actually, I think the email leaks which showed the DNC in the bag for Clinton did more damage.
Those leaked email no doubt soured a lot of Sander supports. Supporters who either voted 3rd party or sat the election out.
I voted for President Trump, because he was the only one to call out the GOP for a unjust war. Then he called out the Obama administration for changing the demographics of our country. Hillary claimed she would continue every policy of President Obama, so the choice was clear. I hate that the Clintons used America as their personal checkbook and trying to run this country like other countries. America is not like other countries, but the progressives and illegal immigration refuse to see this!
I do understand those who voted reluctantly for Trump, acknowledging his uh-hem... flaws... to stop Hillary who (aside from the scandals) represented "the left" and continue with Obama's policies if that was the main motivation. The same with people who were on board for Hillary (especially the disappointed Bernie supporters who had to hold their noses) to stop a Republican from taking the White House.
As far as voting on their personalities... I kind of saw Trump as the guy who jumps out of the bushes with a butcher knife and chases people down the street. I saw Hillary waiting in the bushes for someone to walk by and pops them in the head with a silencer. I may have had more of a chance with Trump, ha ha... although the alternative would have been quick.
I have always liked Trump and think he is a great businessman. I even applied for The Apprentice before it was Celebrity. So that's why I voted for him. He is doing this for the people not for money, recognition, etc.
Why does everything revolve around hate for the left? If you dare to disagree it must be because "you HATE xyz".
I don't hate Hillary, she deserves to be in jail and I really didn't want her to pick the next SC justice or have executive order power and don't think we need ANY more Clintons, Obamas or Bushes in the White House, but I don't hate her.
Back at the end of 2015, when we had 17 Republicans and four Democrats campaigning for the presidency, I told my parents that there were two people whom I didn't want in the White House under any circumstances whatsoever: Jeb Bush and Hillary Clinton. Thankfully, Jeb Bush was humiliated and dropped out of the race early on, but Hillary Clinton was in it until the end, so even if I didn't care for Donald Trump, I would have had no choice but to vote for him, simply because it'd be a vote against her.
No more Clintons. No more Bushes. No more Obamas. I'm done with all of them.
