Just a general question, not necessarily directed at you Cro.

I suppose most Americans I know or talk to consider themselves conservatives, and so hate Trump for obvious reasons, like you said. I suppose most of them would dislike any Dem candidate, but nik below sums it up well. It's hate for Hillary because she's a liar, wishy-washy, and perceived to be most influenced by corporate greed.
I guess I would be remiss not to add that a very small portion of people I meet with (not friends) try to convince me that Trump will keep America safe in a sad attempt to veil their racism. I absolutely LOVE retorting back that Americans have killed more Americans than Muslims/Mexicans/Minorities have. It's simply delicious watching them try spouting some 2nd amd crap about rights and protection yada yada yada.
