I like that he is much more of a progressive than anything that has come out of the GOP since the 1950s. I dread, though, his lack of experience and preparation for the job. Good intentions are not enough. The GOP establishment, Wall Street, China, and Russia are going to walk all over him.

The biggest reason for me is the second amendment. The second biggest reason is because liberals hate him.

I didn't vote for Trump. But I am most hoping that he will be able to do the following:

- Get rid of the ghettos in America's inner cities

- Bring back manufacturing jobs

- Help create the next industrial revolution

- Remove illegal immigrants

- Solve the student loan debt crisis

If he can make significant progress in these areas, then I will vote for him next time around.

The Supreme Court. With Hillary the 2nd would no longer be an individual right and congressmen would be deciding how to limit the speech of those who are against them.

You see, that's the funny thing: I find what YOU said to be absolutely, 100% vile and disgusting.
You SHOULD be overcome by shame, yet I am quite certain that shame will elude you.

The only reason I dislike him is because he has the same backward stance on marijuana as the rest of his party, and won't legalize it already.
Ah yes...the American left and their belief that we can smoke pot, tax and borrow our way to prosperity.....

It's not a matter of liking Mr. Trump. It's the dislike for Mrs. Clinton.
