It drives me insane! I have really tried to give Trump the benefit of the doubt on certain extreme positions, like Muslims, "The Wall", and even torture... After changing his rhetoric and moving slightly towards sanity, last night he brought a lot of people back to square-one by again stating that he wants to do "Worse, much worse than water-boarding". ???
This election is starting to give me a feeling of deja-vu. You know, when suddenly all of your excitement and passion about the electoral process is extinguished, and you realize that once again you are either choosing evil or voting green-party?
As a somewhat decent human being, I just can't write this off. Of course, Trump would never actually be able to implement those policies, but the fact that it's what he wants to do is disturbing. Trump, if you seriously want to win this election, and if you're seriously not just playing some weird game, than you need to clarify some things immediately:
- Acknowledge that torture is bad, mmkay? Apologize for scaring the crap out of half the country by even considering it.
- Pledge to protect internet freedoms and promise to never consider "shutting down the internet in some of 'those places'" again. If you don't understand that the open & free internet is the only thing that enabled you to get this far, when the media was smearing you left and right, than I don't know what to tell you.
- Change your position on banning all Muslims from entering the country. It's just never going to fly, and Muslims, like the rest of us, are people. Theres' good ones and bad ones.
- Tone down The Wall. Roger Waters must be beside himself right now.
Saying these ridiculous things only benefits Hillary Clinton, surely you must see that? (I am so confused right now LOL ... )
If you can do all of that, and if Hillary gets the nomination, and if Bernie fades away, than there's still a chance I'd vote for you. I do believe I'm not the only one that feels this frustrating moral dilemma...
We need to do away with political parties and start working together as The People. Left or Right, I think everyone agrees that the establishment has got to go. If you're wondering why someone that loves Bernie also can't help liking certain things about Trump, it's because I think that people will never agree completely, and there are valid, powerful messages coming from both sides. Wouldn't it be great if we could work together to put our differences aside and reclaim our nation with unity?
