This is along the lines of my recent thinking. My alternative is to vote for Trump - let's be honest, he will not be very good at the job. From what I have seen and heard of/from him (which isn't that much I guess?) he appears to care more about his own ego than the US. While it is refreshing to hear him speak his thoughts without caring about the PC media-mafia, some of the things he says are outlandish and other borderline nuts. His tax plan is not very good, and as his "experience" qualification it is my understanding that 1. he and/or his companies filed for bankruptcy on more than one occasion, and 2. he would have made billions more had he simply passively invested in the S&P since he inherited his millions, rather than play with it to "become" a real estate tycoon. Not exactly great credentials when it comes to claiming you can fix the economy here. I hate most of Bernie's policies, but the pendulum must swing back in that direction (unfortunately) for society to try to balance the equation before we are destroyed from within. Or maybe not and everything goes on as it always has. I don't really know that much about anything probably.
Trump has big talk about big change, but has no plan to deal with an uncooperative congress. I'd support Trump if it comes down to any dem besides Sanders vs Trump, but this is definitely a big flaw.
trump is a fucking nutbag, i say this as someone who will be voting for him; the point of voting for trump is to destroy the system that makes average peoples votes worthless
