However I will vote for trump in November as I did in 2016. Do any of you feel as I do, meaning even though you’ll support him, you almost have to hold your nose and tongue to do so?
I'm not a Republican. I decided to abandon that particular political party since Trump was elected, because Trump caused the Rep Pty to unmask itself and reveal itself for what it truly is - not a real political party. The GOP is merely a vehicle to allow career politicians to have wonderful careers, and to build generational wealth for all of their progeny. That's it. No core beliefs whatsoever - no willingness to represent their voters.
The Dem Pty is of course, the same, but with one important difference - the Dem Pty is the Pty of the Radical Left Marxist ideologues.
TRUMP is a True Outsider, and, that's why you find him distasteful. You are a GOP'er. Trump is an Outsider.
I'm with Trump because I am also an Outsider.

You need to think and use common sense.
Everyone who dislikes Trump (whether they'll vote for him or not) is in this exact same boat. It's a liberal disease.

The guy has put up with so much crap, he has to love the country to run for a second term.

NATO, sure, everyone needs to contribute their two percent share but as far as attempting to pull out of nato and leave our allies to fend for themselves, that I do not agree with whatsoever.
This is where you're missing the point. If he does nothing, they'll keep taking advantage of us by not paying their dues. This way, they'll see that they can't do it alone and step up to be a better partner.

If Trump's having problems with our allies it's because he's trying to rectify all the foreign policy blunders and idiotic agreements previous administrations saddled on the US taxpayers.

If Trump wins re-election, he will go down as one of the greatest Presidents of all time, possibly second only to Washington. He alone will have saved the Republic from the marxist globalists.

He may be petty and a liar but that is a SMALL price to pay for supreme court nominations!

It's okay that you're a woman and make every decision based on emotion and how you feel. My wife is the same way and I have to help her see reality often.

I didn't turn 18 until after Reagan was elected. Therefore, I have NEVER not held my nose to vote for President beginning with the 1988 election.
And just being 100% honest, the most pleasant (least unpleasant?) vote I've ever cast for President (out of 8 votes) was 2016.
There, I said it.

No. He's clearly one of the best president's we've ever had.

Vote for Trump and you hold your nose. Vote for Biden and you could be one of those eight armed sword fighting statues come to life in those old Ray Harryhausen Sinbad movies and still not have enough arms to hold on to everything they will take of yours. I've had tougher decisions deciding what pair of underwear to wear.

It's not so much a vote for Trump as it is a vote against liberal socialist radicals who hate America.

I agree. Trump often rubs me the wrong way in how he uses the bully pulpit to insult without following it with criminal charges. If you’re going to call someone corrupt, bring an indictment.
I often disagree with Trump on how he uses executive authority to violate the spirit if Congressional budget authorizations.
Trump offends me and often makes me ashamed to support him, but this race is about so much more than Trump. I have no choice but to support him because we’re all f$&ked if he loses.

I'd say his spending is the worst aspect.
