No more Political Correctness...no more walking on egg shells...more jobs...probably no wall, but better border security and new laws on immigration...TOUGHER laws...and maybe slowing digging our way out of the gutter of being broke...our deficit is at an all time high.

If Trump wins, I foresee no changes to the daily lives of the average American. We will pay our taxes, good Americans will die, and we'll learn absolutely nothing. Blue states will stay blue, red states will stay red. The federal government will continue to overreach its constitutionally ascribed power, and we'll all allow it to happen.

Jobs will come back however those jobs will charge insane prices due to wages and taxes being higher in the US.

I think if it's a Democrat than things will continue as usual and if things the way they are are to your liking than we shouldn't expect any less. I think Trump if elected is unique and I would hope that things will get better and he'll want to leave office after 4. I think what Trump has done hasn't been fully appreciated. As an outsider up against the controlling that is no secret to existing, political machine, Trump just got a membership. This might cause more pushback from politicians and their backers or all politicians might start cleaning house. Trump seems if he was a personal friend you would still keep your distance the way he's unpredictable but I think he has Americas interest in mind and has the type of personality for the job, you'd have to be crazy to want to be the POTUS.

If Trump wins sorta of a status quo I think. Nothing much worse than now. If Clinton wins, more surveillance state, more Wall Street corruption, more ill-advised military deployments and much death, a lot of death. More of the whole planet being shaken to pieces for the sake of the Military Industrial Complex.

I see thoughts on Trump's plan against ISIS which Trump expresses that he doesn't like to reveal his plans in advance. If you're like me and have watched a lot of Trump (I never watched apprentice) then you'd know what his plans for ISIS are. Want to know while Clinton and the MSM push Headlines saying otherwise, please watch this less than two-minute explanation from Trump:

It would depend in large on whether he tried to enforce his promises of deporting eleven million people and blocking Muslims from America.

For the first, think about what four or five million vacant houses and apartments would do to the housing market and property values. Similarly, millions of job vacancies, mostly that white Americans don't want to fill, would bring ruin to the produce industry and much of agriculture as well as driving up grocery prices astronomically. It would also force service industries and the fast food business to drastically increase wages to get enough workers to stay in business. The ripples would likely create a worldwide depression that would last for decades.

In the second issue, attempts to block people of a particular religion from entering the country would provoke a major constitutional crisis, as well as earning us the enmity of nations around the world. It would also generate considerable hostility and anger among American Muslims, resulting in more alienated and disaffected young people turning into radical Islamists.

I could go on, but you get the idea...

When Trump wins, not much will change, it will take at least two years to even begin cleaning house, overturning poor executive actions and ferreting out the troublesome appointees. About the time his first and only 4 years comes to end he should have stopped our further decline and move us away from being a laughingstock in the world arena. With this much damage miracles can not happen over night. A true miracle will be both parties cleaning up the mess they gave us these past few decades. The true problem is the attention span of the average American voter which I liken to a goldfish. Unless the American people wake up and take an active roll in our leadership we will do the rinse and repeat cycle until the fall.

Under clinton, we'll have 4 more years of failed obama policy. Under trump, we MAY be slightly better off, but only if trump surrounds himself with people who know what they're doing, our status in the world changes for the better and the relationship with our allies, then it may be better than slightly. I'm still not voting for either of them.

I think we will have another Bush#1 presidency, i.e. one term no matter which one wins.

Perhaps third party candidates will get more traction. Since Ralph Nader they seem to pop up, get a few people excited a few months before the general election and then peter out.

The real outcome will depend on who wins the majority in both Houses.

If the GOP keeps the majority and Trump wins, we may see some real progress to reign in the Federal machine. If the dems get in charge again, be prepared for more of the same.

If Trump rolls back many of the recent regulations, taxes and penalties placed on small businesses, we could see GDP growth rates recover back to normal US historical 3 to 3.5%. Doesn't sound like much, but it becomes an enormous driver of growth and higher living standards and lower deficits and debt over time. Nearly all of the 1000's of pages are department of Labor, Dept of Health & Human Services, Dept of Energy, and other Executive department bureaucratic mandates, so he wouldn't even need Congressional support to repeal them.

SFC Richard Giles I frimly believe that, if Hillary Clinton is elected, our country will continue its current death spiral. On the other hand, I think that Trump will right the ship and get our country back to where it needs to be.

If Hillary gets elected she will push to take as many firearms as she can from the private citizen while continuing the Obama Social agenda divide and enslave. Corporations will continue to get rich, the top will be richer, the middle class will continue to erode, until everyone is dependent on the government teat. We will continue to lose our standing in the world, and China will emerge as the country that people look to.
If Trump gets elected, there will be little difference as far as corporations and our standing with the world. Corporations will continue getting rich, our standing in the world will continue to diminish. I think he would cause our standing to fall so fast that Germany as the de facto leader of the EU following Brexit would emerge as a world leader. We may see an attempt at tax reform, but it will only be to benefit those who can benefit Donald Trump.
Either way, don't count on either dumb or dumber to make good on any of their campaign rhetoric, those are just empty words used to get people to vote for them.

My biggest concern is Supreme Court nominations. If Hillary wins we will see a strong push for Gun Control (she already has said she is a fan of the Australian gun seizure of 1996). A Liberal Majority on the Supreme Court will be bad for us Constitutional Conservatives.
