Anyone who thinks Trump is only "just as harmful as Clinton could be" as president is deluding themselves.
Forget that he's declared bankruptcy 7x. Forget that he's not paid taxes for a good portion of his adult life. Forget that he's managed to p---- off most target groups of people whose votes he needs. I think those are huge warning flags, but in the end, it's how fit the guy (or gal) is to sit in the big chair. And in that respect, he's failed miserably to show the qualities you'd want to see in a future leader.
The defining moment of the 2nd debate was when he decided to go against his own GOP and running mate on how to deal with Syria - where he literally has ZERO experience. Rather than show true leadership and rely on those who might have an idea on what to do - he just decides to go rogue when it suits him.
For everything else politicians get a deservedly bad rap for, you cannot have someone who is irresponsible enough to decide they can go rogue whenever they feel like it. Worse yet, on something the guy has zero credible experience or knowledge on.
If people think somehow Clinton is just as bad, they're are freaking deluding themselves. I say that as someone who would have supported Colin Powell as a Republican, or Bernie Sanders as a Democrat candidate 10x more than Hilary. But Hilary is literally 1,000,000x better for the job than Donald.
The fact that the GOP itself is cutting ties, so many dyed-in-the-wool Republicans (not just the leadership, we're talking about media outlets that have gone 50+ years Republican each and every time that have gone away from Trump), that so many feel this way, it's more than telling, it's screaming at max volume. They aren't just worried he's going to lose, they literally have come to the conclusion he's actually harming their cause.
