He also got you into more wars that have turned to shit. Cutting employment was good if only he could have done it with jobs that pay a decent wage.

Deporting migrants is good, Clinton wanted to allow more in and legalise more.

He backed down from really tackling the core problem, the root cost of healthcare. Until that's dealt with, you will never stop being shafted.

Trump is the first step in breaking the hold of the career politicians who are more interested in getting funds from billionaires than the people. It was him or Clinton, who was a step backwards.

Hopefully, in the next elections, people will not vote for either Democrats or Republicans. Both are too controlled by the minority.

Bad choice but it's the only one.
