I get the argument that Hillary was the safer bet, as she's probably closer to what I sought than Trump.
Had Trump said he planned a 1 trillion infrastructure build using P3s, I'd have considered him more seriously. That's actually a great idea. But he didn't do that. He rambled like a lunatic about sex tapes, or his hands. And Hillary just offered more of the same old same old, which, if you make any of your money servicing middle class people, from which a good bit of my household income is derived, and you work for yourself, which my wife and I mostly do, is problematic.
She was a vote for stagnation; he was a vote for who knows what the fuck. It was impossible for me to care much either way.
