Friends who are supporting Donald Trump.
What to do? I feel they are doing harm, and I cannot, for the life of me, figure out why.
I really don't understand why anybody finds him acceptable - for anything, let alone President.
I know a lot of people hate Clinton, who is really the proxy for Obama. And I don't particular like her, either. or Obama.
But I don't think either is as crazy, corrupt, or recidivist as Donald Trump, who I have had a low opinion of since the 80s.
I don't even like him as an entertainer.
And some of the friends who have stated they will vote for Trump were Bernie Sanders supporters. I am flummoxed.
On two occasions, I have tried to talk to Trumpers. Pointless. They concede no fact that doesn't support their position, and believe any lie that does.
And, amazingly, every single accusation they make against Clinton, I think applies to Trump, many times over.
The latest one, a table-pounding Bernie supporter, an ex-Marine, and someone in the music scene I have worked with a lot, just posted on FB that he will 'hold his nose' and vote for Trump, because Hillary and the Democrats are too corrupt.
He is going to vote for the most corrupt individual ever to run for the Presidency because she is too corrupt?
I'm anxious to find out how however I handle this turns out. I know if Trump wins, I will have a lot of work to do to remember that the people who voted for him sincerely thought he would be better. They believed it was the right thing to do, when I am of the opinion that it is obviously the wrong thing to do. I know, of course, exactly what my opinion is worth.
How can I spin this? Well, I'm grateful for the opportunity to grow and see how everything shakes out.
