im not struggling to articulate a "reasonable argument in defense of Donald Trump for POTUS", again what you are really asking me for is a reason that you agree with and that assuages your emotions, i cant do that
stopping hillary clinton from becoming president is a perfectly logical reason to vote for trump, the fact that you dont agree with it or you do not find it reasonable doesnt mean its not logical
That's a perfectly fine reason to vote for Trump, but many of the same people who voted for him in the general also voted for him during the primaries. I'm only asking you to make sense of THAT.
