Not to mention that he doesn't even have much of the GOP's support and Trump would be the very definition of lame duck president. With Trump as president, the only bad thing that could (would) happen would be how the world views America, but it's not like they view us that favorably as is.
On top of that, Clinton actually has support from her party so she could actually get things done, things that could (would) prove harmful to this country. And that's one of the many reasons why I find her more dangerous as president than Trump.
I don't want a lame duck POTUS, though. I want a POTUS that is going to do their job, that knows how to do their job, and knows how to do it effectively. If a POTUS does things they shouldn't do there are mechanisms for that, but a POTUS that is ineffective leaves us vulnerable in far too many ways.
Sorry for the delayed response,I just saw yours.
