Trump supporters: Is there anything he can say or do to not get your vote?

2016-08-01T13:27:45-04:00

It is not just the Democrats who are opposed to Trump. Many Republicans have grown tired of his antics and clearly see him as unfit to be the POTUS. Is there a line he can cross that will change your mind, has he already crossed it, or is he the best option we have no matter what he says, does, or how he conducts himself?

My thoughts are this, I have such a bad taste in my mouth from Hillary and her disregard for most causes I support that I would take any opportunity I could to take a vote from her... Trump isn't all good, he isn't all bad, but third parties/independents don't stand a chance so he is my best chance to keep her from office.

This Question could be asked the same to Hillary supporters. Fortunately I don't support either. There is another option.

There is pretty much nothing that he could do that would be as bad as the way that the Clintons have conducted themselves their entire lives.

The only chance I would not vote for Trump at this point was if Hillary and her Veep left the ticket (one way or another) and they had to nominate/re-nominate someone and he/she is far more conservative than any democrat candidate in recent history. I am not a Trump fan but Hillary is a corrupt, documented liar and uinable to manage the truth, confidential information and her record as Sec State is wretched. Her position on the 2nd amendment is anathema to anyone that wants to keep that right as well.

You seem to forget who Trump is running against. You act as though her BS is not old and that she is somehow worthy of our vote.

BTW, the fact that both dems and Reps are going after him ought to be a good indicator that he is the outsider and the elites do not want to give up power. The fact the some Reps are working against him shows how deep the water runs in DC politics. Power is the ultimate for all of them. Letting an outsider in would expose them all.

One of the first things I tried to look for from the start or I would of been against him is whether or not he would seem to be in cahoots with big banks. Can't be certain- and the same goes for politicians. I just assume politicians are because of money from lobbyists and donors for campaigns (they can even try a fast one with a new face). If it would be shown that he is actually sold out than I wouldn't vote for him, or if he decided to go anti-2A.

I've looked over a lot of candidates in my lifetime. I've studied many who came long before I was eligible to vote. You can't study them without asking yourself, are we using the correct criteria? Few have lived up to their promise and some have outperformed expectations. The truth is that I'm finding myself attracted to Trump for all the reasons that most complain. No, he is not politically correct in speech or action. Is that a bad thing? He's no diplomat. But what has diplomacy gotten us? He has failed in his life, but always bounced back. How can we be sure that a person who has never failed will react when they do as President? (And they will) His party establishment despises him? Good. I despise them. No, I'm not yet "locked in" but I sure as hell have no intention of voting for a criminal.

One could come up with the same poll for Clinton. At what point do Clinton supporters realize that she is a felon that will never be prosecuted because she belongs to the "POLITICAL CLASS" and above or laws.

SFC J Fullerton The only way Trump will not get my vote is if Hillary is no longer the other choice (yes, I am aware of Third Party candidates, but that is simply a wasted vote/vote for Hillary). While Trump is certainly not the perfect (far from it) candidate, he is clearly better than Hillary Clinton for this country

He already did. I shut him off when he said the military would follow illegal orders when they came from him. No I won't!

I shut Secretary Clinton off at "cattle futures gate."

How about a choice, he's done something illegal or it came our that he dis somethig illegal in the past. Besides traffic fines or if he tried weed in college. I do not want to vote for a criminal. If that happened i'd either not vote or vote libertarian.

No. Not with "Crooked" Hillary as the Dem nominee. I'd vote for roadkill over her.

I don't support Trump and am not voting for him, I don't subscribe to the "lesser of two evils" doctrine. But if I did, I would pick him. at least he won his nomination fairly. as far as I am concerned, at this point, there is nothing Hiliary or her apologists could say to make me able to vote for her.

Absolutely! If Trump, for instance, left Americans to die on sovereign U.S. soil (like an embassy), was grossly negligent in handling national security emails of a classified nature, or pandered to illegal immigrants or domestic terrorists to get votes, you bet I wouldn't vote for him.

Let me put it this way.
Given that who the next President is will affect me personally and directly, there is nothing that will keep me from voting. Alternative candidates will not win a state, much less 270 electoral votes, so that is pointless.
This leaves me with a choice between the devil I know and the devil I don't. I will make every effort to get to know the devil I don't know, and make the best choice I can between the lesser of two evils. The devil I do know is a dark and hateful creature indeed.

It is too important to not pay attention and choose wisely.

There's no other option. People are so bent out of shape over Trump's callous comments and blatent disregard for political correctness, condemning him for these insignificant character flaws while raising up the most dishonest, incapable, irresponsible individual who ever held a position of authority in the United States Federal Govornment. She's continuously lied, not only to the people of this nation, and federal investigators, but to congress, under oath. How can anyone even consider someone like this for the position of POTUS, and trust her to safegard topshelf classified intel, if she can't even accomplish the task as a secretary of state? I guess liberal democrats would rather dwell on inappropriate comments and tax return reveals, than address actual criminal activity. Just goes to show where their priorities lie, or are these frivolous accusations aimed at Trump's character just another diversionary tactic to draw attention away from their crooked party antics, as they continue to rig elections, and decieve the people of this country? My bet is on the latter.
