Hopefully I can help with that.
I agree that Kasich would have been a good choice (Bush even better, if not for his terrible image)...but Hillary was a very strong Secretary of State, there's no denying that. She has made many mistakes, and I agree that her handling of those things was bad. Really bad.
Hillary has supported Israel for her entire career, and doesn't plan on stopping now, if that's what you're insinuating. I think the only real 'danger' Hillary may pose to Israel would be in proposing a mutual defense treaty between Israel and U.S. (which would require Israel to define their borders). If anything one opposed to Hillary would say that she is too considerate of Zionist lobbying groups.
Not to mention that with Trump, it is POINTLESS to say that he has ever 'supported' anything. Because he hasn't. He's never held any position of a political nature, so any of his words said in the past or even now are meaningless--he can change his position whenever he wants and avoid any consequences (once again, Hillary has done the same thing, but she can be called out on it, unlike Trump) -- see his comments on abortion.
This is a BAD thing. It means it will be even more difficult for Trump and the Republican establishment to work together..and this is even further amplified by Trump's lack of tact (or simulated lack of tact/ elaborate persona) and the power of the Tea Party. Again, not really something that should be influencing your choice between Hillary and Trump.
This is also something bad that I feel you are not recognizing as being bad. Firstly: you are admitting that Trump doesn't know shit. To put it bluntly.
Second, you are predicting that Trump will in essence become either a) stupid (if he refuses to listen to people, as per his persona), b) a figurehead (if he allows himself to be unduly influenced by his cabinet and Congress), or a combination of both. Why would you vote for a candidate while admitting that you don't know what he would do once in office? Not to mention that his choices for his cabinet will likely also be off-point due to the aforementioned lack of experience, further screwing any policy decisions he may make.
How? Overt racism and xenophobia, crassness and vulgarity disguised as 'anti-political correctness,' is a lesser evil than...what? Hillary being bound to the landed interests? Trump IS A LANDED INTEREST HE'S A FUCKING BILLIONAIRE DUDE. Not to mention the fact that you are just ignoring it... I get that people have their priorities, but I think you are solely underestimating just how much of Trump's policy platform is racism, racism, racism. Or realising it and not caring in favor of the parts that you find attractive, which frankly I can't condone.
And every other evil they basically share in spades (other than Trump's lack of political experience). They are both untrustworthy and unreliable with regards to politics, however Trump more so due to lack of political experience. LGBTQ? They both flip flop. Abortion? flip flop. Notice that while Hillary flip flops in order to appeal to a wider electorate for long periods of time (this is bad), Trump flip flops several times within a few months because...who knows he;s Trump he just does whatever the fuck he wants (this is worse).
You already admitted that he's a 'democratic' candidate (a populist, to be exact) running under the republican ticket. Do you really think they're gonna get along perfectly just because he's republican? At least with Hilary they know what they're getting. As more and more deadlock occurs this results in forced cooperation. With Donald Trump they have what is basically a wild card, who is already anti-establishment. The best they can do is rein him in and hope for the best (as shown by Paul Ryan and Trump's joint speech, released recently).
Well we've already discussed this itt. Trump wants to buyback our debt at lower than face value and default, which would wreck the world markets and absolutely crush the US economy. Obviously business acumen does not translate to skill in running a nation economically. Hillary, has been in politics for a long time now--she gets economy with regards to the government, both on the local and the federal level.
Watched this speech:
Trump identifies five main weaknesses in the foreign policy.
(first: overextension of resources--rebuilding other countries while weakening our own) again, advocating a return to protectionism, etc
11:33 - im the only one believe me i know em all im the only one that knows how to fix it (k)
secondly: allies not paying their fair share -- admittedly an enormous problem. US is shouldering too much of the international burden. However no one disputes this.
thirdly; allies beginning to doubt presidents, US - wrong. Obama is much beloved the world over -> getting bashed for trying to negotiate with Iran??? Iran can't afford to blow up (literally)
here trump extolls the ability to be able to WALK during negotiations. This is bad. Shouldn't really need to explain why this attitude is bad in the current climate. fourth point is basically our rivals don't respect america anymore. True, but not disputed by anyone (again). note on trump's view of china

fifthly: we lack a coherent foreign policy. True! (fsr notes that we should be ashamed for not helping the Christians--very confused about this)
"almost as if we don't know what's happening" true! Does not elaborate on how under him we would know what's happening (which would obviously make things a great deal easier wrt everything)
it took until 22:38 for him to actually propose something. Stop focusing on nation building and instead on increasing stability (good idea, a step back form the interventionism we've been engaging in for awhile. Disputable, but a good solid idea nonetheless)
-goes into xenophobia part: we arent importing extremism. There IS documentation and there IS paperwork (unlike what Trump says)
-really citing 9/11 as a symptom of bad immigration policy..lol
-America should be unpredictable. ISIS will be gone,
I dont know when and I dont know where and I dont know how but they will be gone (K)
Argues for increase in military. I can live with that.
-priorities: middle east- support regional stability and destroy terrorists. "There are groups who no matter what we do, they will be the enemy" (muslims???) **note: later talks about old enemies becoming friends but what abt muslims and hispanics
-friendship with russia and china based on shared interests. Russia and US versus Islamic terror! If we can't make a deal, then we will walk from the table (k).
basically nothing more of substance from this point on. quite inspirational, though! Trump is a very good speaker. He has some very interesting and GOOD ideas but demonstrates a startling lack of understanding of the complex network of international forces that affect geopolitics in the middle east and worldwide, which shows in his lack of a concrete or detailed solution for most of these problems. This however is a boon to him because it makes it very easy to understand for the layman. Even if it is sorely lacking in substance.
America must be strong, wealthy, and great again. yes, of course! No one disagrees with you. You're (trump) just shouting louder than everyone else.
