Face it you're voting for Trump because the media is pushing you to vote for him. All this "anti trump" media coverage is just a ploy to make him seem like he's making corporations and the system nervous when its obvious he's just being told what to say to appeal to younger voters gullible enough to think the mainstream media doesn't like him.

Trump could be just another bit of kabuki theater, to make people think he's against the status quo or w/e. But the only other choice that is going to be offered up that may not be a part of the machine is Sanders, and I've got a feeling that President-Sanders there might feel the same way.

The best part of politics in the modern era is that everyone has the Douche and the Turd Sandwich attitude about it all. "I'm only voting for X because he's less of a douche than Y." In the end it's just biting us in the ass year after year.
