As largely a liberal minded person (Catholic upbringing makes abortion a real thorn to deal with) (I'm also pro-gun) I am swallowing bitter tears this morning. Hillary lacked the ability to inspire the base, and now we seem to have a real scary option running about to run the country. Of course the email scandal devoured her reputation, and the Obamacare rates that many warned me years ago were coming, did in fact deliver another hearty death blow to her race. Working the 3rd shift allowed me to watch many of Trump's speeches, and I generally found them to be full of bluster and vague generalities. ("We are going to get rid of Obamacare and replace it with something great") Trump's more grand plans (THE WALL, A deportation squad, and more recently, his plan to establish a safe zone in Syria for Syrians) all scream huge government spending, and he, with control of the congress and Senate with inevitably cut taxes, and suddenly we'll have Bush 2.0 for the economy. Add in his proclamation to rip up the international climate control agreement, and I have a whole lot of concern. Trump was elected as an agent of change, so we'll see how he forms his cabinet and if he brings along his merry band of scandal plagued surrogates such as Newt Gingrich, Rudy Giuliani and Chris Christie. I'd enjoy hearing your particular reasons for voting for the Donald, was it a particular issue (ISIS was reported to be a major reason people went to him vs Clinton) or was it a case of taking whoever would bear the "R" next his their name? I am not looking to argue, genuinely curious.
