If he is idiotic and has all of his points torn apart, I will have a hard time pulling the lever for him. Intelligence matters.
But if he wins, and then will have won 2 out of 3 debates against a person who spent a month home prepping for them and avoiding the people of this country, that would be very compelling.
It all depends on him making a full heel-face-turn for tonight's rubbermatch.
I
1 - am rabidly pro-choice
2 - think the second amendment is pretty good as is, maybe with a few additional checks.
3 - default pro-cop but think we have too many laws
4 - like the wall but not a fan of massive deportations
5 - would not like to have the migrant influx that europe has, even if the crisis is partly our fault
6 - anti-PC
7 - pro pot-legalization (that's actually more repub this go-round)
8 - believe in climate change
9 - pro-israel
10 - want liberal supreme court justices
11 - think we are taking a very naive approach to the risk of terrorism in order to avoid offending many groups
12 - massively turned on by this https://www.donaldjtrump.com/press-releases/donald-j.-trumps...
13 - have to admit if you put them in a box and made them play jeopardy with only geographic/polysci questions, he would get killed.
14 - want less of the typical pro-jesus anti-gay slant the old guard GOP has had (admittedly that's not him but is the Silver Fox at his side)
Disagree with: other half of 4, probably 11
Republicans agree with: half of 2, 3, half of 4
Republicans disagree with: 1, other half of 2, 3, other half of 4, 7, 8, 10, 14
Toss-ups, non-issues, and uselessly vague include 5, 6, 9, 11, and 12.
I dunno, it seems pretty clear-cut to me.
For example, 3 is solidly not Hillary. Speakers she had at the DNC, tweets after Dallas shooting, on and on.
Trump is 100% pro-lgbt and has never been a christian, so 14 isn't him.
Trump also is for legalizing medicinal and letting states determine recreational, so 7 is him, not her (have a strong sense from things she's written that she won't legalize).
And the ones you earmarked as toss-ups etc are more him. They also are VERY important to ME, so not the non-issues you paint them as.
There's a few others like this. But I have to go.
And you are undecided.
If Trump had 10 or more extra IQ points, he would be an easier sell to me. I do feel his ridiculous energy levels might compensate for this and then some, not sure though.
A sane person can't vote for either of them.
But a good citizen's duty is to vote. Write my name on it.
If you vote for Trump you're a bigot. If you vote for Hillary you're a hypocrite.
