As a republican who has voted exclusively republican every year I could vote (11 years), I will vote for Hillary if it comes Trump v Hillary.
Here's my problem with Trump - it's not even necessarily his policies - which aren't THAT crazy, except the no-muslim one, and having Mexico pay for a 2000 mile long "beautiful" wall... (lol)
My problem with Trump is that he mouths off when his ego is challenged. I would not feel confident when he goes oversees the countless times that Presidents do to talk to foreign leaders. A president needs to smile and shake the hands of people that he HATES. I don't feel that Trump is capable of swallowing his pride, and I worry that under a Trump presidency he is more likely to start WW3 than any other person running.
Hillary is annoying (as a republican). I fear that she will make legislation that will damage our small (or large) businesses. She may make guns harder to get, she may increase taxes slightly (but not as much as Bernie)... She's the lesser evil IMO. She's safe. I wouldn't worry about her destabilizing our country. She'd just be another Obama, which isn't that bad.
I would love another shot at Romney or Paul Ryan :/ oh well - 2020? Although at this rate, Kanye West will probably beat them in the popular vote in the primary, since clearly republicans like to vote in clowns.
There's also Kasich, who ISN'T crazy, but the only way that he could "win" the primary is in a contested convention, and what are the odds of Trump throwing in his support to Kasich? roughly 0%. That would tear the Republican party in half.
The Republican party is dead (or will be) as a result of this clown car filled with Trump and Cruz as the only options.
