Donald Drumpf
I've heard so many people say that they might have to vote f Trump because they just can't vote for Hillary. I tell them the only time I'd have a hard time considering voting for Trump was if Hitler was running against him, other than that it's a no-brainer.
They say Hillary is just so dishonest. I ask them how many male politicians are honest. Like it's okay to elect a lying man, but a lying woman? Whoa, that's just unacceptable.
I don't see the big issue with voting for an administrator instead of a "leader". I see a lot of problems in politics and society that can use a better vision from the executive branch, but society progresses on its own anyway, and I'll happily settle for someone who just won't stand in the way.
Hillary gets my vote.

Bernie should run as an independent if Hillary doesn't make the concessions that he's asking for.
Him getting more than 10% of the vote would 100% lead to a collapse of the 2-party system, which I'm pretty sure everyone working American wants.
If splitting the left-wing vote results in Trump getting elected, then so be it. The Democratic party will continue to avoid drifting to the left unless there is a real pressure of their party alienating massive voter bases.
The same argument is always made here in Canada-- "you gotta vote Liberal in order to avoid letting the Conservatives win because the NDP will split the vote!!". Well, it might happen for one election, maybe 2. But in the long run it's healthier for democracy because it holds parties accountable to the votes that they receive.

I'd love to see the fireworks go off in the DNP if Bernie ran as an independent. Oh God damn, it would be hilarious.
I wish Bernie would do it.

I can see it now. Hillary v. GOP establishment shill (chosen at convention) v. Trump v. Johnson (polling over 10% in the general election) v. Sanders.
