Hillary's emails issue and cavalier attitude about classified material was a massive problem for me as someone who spent years protecting our nation's secrets while working in Intel. She was given the trust of the American public and abused it, badly (and not just on the email issue).

So then I looked at policies themselves. I vehemently disagreed with her on immigration, taxes, military, likely SCOTUS picks, trade, and a number of other issues. I agreed with Trump on trade, some parts of immigration, the military, terrorism, possible SCOTUS picks, and a few other issues. So yeah, I didn't vote with my vagina, I voted with my mind. I chose Trump even though I personally didn't like him but I don't need my President to be my buddy, I need him to be a leader who pushes forth policies that I think will be best for myself, my family, and our country.
I vote on policies which I most identify with, not the person running. Trump has no policies. And I would never vote for someone who has no respect for women and degraded them. I have no respect for Trump the way he treated his opponents. Going after Cruz's wife was inexcusable.

Incorrect. You voted for Hillary. Read the affidavit at the link I posted.

Yes, he has policies. I think some of them are way too vague but the ones I care about are not. I also know I detest Hillary's policies. I try not to use absolutes like 'never' because I find that position to be one that discourages critical analysis. So I measured Trump being an ass against his policies and then Hillary's actions and policies. He won my vote.

The election is over, deal with it, we had to for the last 8 years.

Be thankful you wont die in WW3.
And you just got over it and fully embrace Barack Obama?

How about the way anti-trump people went to body shaming (a HUGE no-no for feminists) melania?

Back to the protests which I believe have now wrapped up. I think and apparently even the left leaning pundits on the news agree with me, they were misguided and really had no purpose, no cause, and accomplished nothing.
