Whoever is the least bit excited (in the positive sense of the word) about a Hillary Presidency is someone who is excited by the notion of politics as usual, stagnant wage growth, more bomb-and-blame foreign policy, and so on. If the last four Presidential terms have proven anything, it's how unimaginative the voting public has become.
As much fun as I'd have watching the misogynist bigot gun nutters squirm like toads in a hot skillet at the prospect of a woman President, I'd vote for Trump before I'd ever condone sending that evil hag to the Oval.

^^No, but Trump put Florina’s business failures as a CEO in the Spotlight, kind of the pot calling the kettle black, IMO.
The CNN newsman gave Trump some good advice, concentrate on the issues rather than attacking the person.
That seems to be the general problem with all the Republicans, they spend their airtime slamming each other or Obama and the Democrats.
Trump finally put a few issues in writing on his website, like his tax plan, like you I question if there would be enough revenue collected to cover expenditure.
On the “death tax” you seemed to like, it’s actually a smoke and mirrors vote getter, IMO
Current Federal law allows $5,430,000.00 before any estate tax is due, a simple will giving each parent equal ownership brings that number to $10,860,000.00,
meaning you’d inherited $5,430,000.00 from each parent, those numbers can be exceeded by Trusts, Living Trusts, Life Estates or a number of other tax shelters.
the actual number of people who pay any Federal Estate Tax is less then two percent, poor planning I believe.

Trump just can’t seem to think before he blurts something out, he’s a spoiled rich kid who has been hollering at people his whole life.

QUOTE Nobody has the guts to nuke us. That would be suicidal, but a preferred end as opposed to what's coming.
We're on the Titanic (Unsinkable!), most of us are in Steerage, the looming iceberg is our own failed economic policy, and the 1%'ers are already buying up the lifeboats.
Conflicts usually begin under very murky conditions. We came very close during the Cuban Missile Crisis, closer than most know. North Korea is not a sane government. Insane people have no need for weighing consequences.
Then there's the Iraq War, where objectives and stratedgy became blinded by fear, hatred, impulsiveness. Bush, with his "gut" instincts failed. So would Trump.
Trump would not start a war. He just appears oblivious on how to deal with problems outside the box. Humanity, in all its magnificent imperfections, is not a corporation that can be sold to shareholders. Unlike most americans some people are not comfortable being corporatized.
