::Trump is  egotistical, and he lied about prosecuting Hillary Clinton or eliminating Obamacare. Not that I cared about either one of those promises, but now we have a President-elect who we can't trust to say what he truly means. The only thing he seems consident on is his stances on environmental issues, and I am not at all reassured by this. He loves eminent domain, probably wouldn't repeal the Energy Policy Act of 2005, appointed climate-change denier Myron Ebell as head of the EPA transition team, even though he has no scientific credentials to make the claims he does beyond support by the natural gas and coal industries. The natural gas industry and coal industry will say what they feel they need to say to protect their immediate best interests for their business, so of course they will have anthropocentric views. Call me a liberal spy for that one stance, I don't really care about liberal/conservative labels being put on me anymore.

::I think party-loyalty is rediculous and I agreed with Trump for not honoring that dumb pledge to not run as a 3rd party candidate, and to endorse the eventual nominee. At least ''he'' admitted that he wouldn't honor the pledge because he may possibly break it. Every other candidate made the pledge, but some (like Ted Cruz) didn't honor it. If I ran for president, I would not have made such a pledge because chances are I'd break it in a heartbeat.

On top of all of that, Donald Trump is a serial party-switcher who once said in 2004 he identified more with the Democrats and that "I've been around a long time. And it just seems the economy does better under the Democrats than under Republicans.".

::I felt that we needed an anti-establishment guy (like Ron Paul) to beat the establishment and drain the swamp, but not this guy. Not Donald Trump. He won't drain the swamp I'm afraid. Instead, he'll dump toxic sludge into it and leave a mess for the next president to clean up. [[User:KommissarReb|KommissarReb]] 10:10, 7 December 2016 (EDT)
