    I could never trust or respect a second-term Trump voter. That says to me quite plainly that person doesn’t have any values, principles, or ideas. At least none that would be compatible with mine.

      Can’t trust the principals of a second term, but you can’t trust the basic reasoning of the first term.

      He’s never been that coy about what he wants to do.

        I remember the first term rhetoric. ‘Drain the swamp’ was high on the list. After Bernie got the shaft, it was tempting to vote for Trump, especially with how Clinton was viewed as heavily entrenched in the capitalist status quo.

        Then my wife said that she wouldn’t ever vote for someone who came from a place of hate, and I very quickly changed my mind.
