All of the accusations you are making against other candidates are equally applicable to Donald Trump. The only difference being that with Trump you don't want them to be true, so you seem to ignore them.

Look, I'm not telling you not to vote for Trump. I still might vote for him myself. On a selfish level, he is easily the candidate who would be most useful to me personally in the White House.

But that's what interests me about this this conversation. What I want to know from you is if your main interest is the destruction of the GOP Establishment (a term that does not accurately apply to either of Trump's two main challengers -no matter how much you would like it to) or the insurance that Hillary Clinton not be our next president. None of the useful arguments that you have made for Trump thus far seem to be both unique to him and definitely based on fact.

Nevertheless, I am enjoying this conversation and I am learning from it. I hope you don't think I am trying to pick a fight with you. As I said, it is entirely likely that I will end up voting for Trump (though for very different reasons from you, I think), but it is still not clear to me what motivates the rabid Trump supporter.

Thanks.

I couldn’t tell you as I’m not a “rabid Trump supporter.” I find him to be the most interesting candidate, the others bore me to tears or have openly cursed the conservative base. I’m willing to give Trump a shot due to the legion of failures that we’ve been presented as “real candidates” by the establishment.
