Do you favor right-wing or leftist Government?

Sure. A difficult problem though, is that what he's said might not indicate what
he actually believes, or will do. So I'll address what I think he'll try to do.
I dislike his....
- Economic protectionism
- Weakness on bodily autonomy, eg, abortion rights, recreational drugs, prostitution
- Vagueness on some of the constitutional liberties he'd protect.
- Tax: Increasing personal deductions.
- Tax: Continue taxing phantom capital gains.
- Eschewing a balanced budget (a consequence of reduced revenue & increased spending).
- Military foreign adventurism.
- Federalization of infrastructure.
- Energy policy which ignores conservation & renewables.
- Federalization of education.

DONALD J. TRUMP POLICIES

It seems to me that it is Trump as a person some see as vague. They simply don't understand him, and the media played to that through sensationalizing their anxieties. I guess it can't be helped that some will have their suspicions of him, but funnily (and concerning) enough it gets to a point that some have to create fake stories about Trump, his family, and his supporters to confirm their suspicions.

One example: HATE HOAX: Black Man Arrested In 'Vote Trump' Mississippi Black Church Burning

I don't think anyone could complain over Trump's proposed policies, because they look quite solid with no hint of vagueness. On the contrary, it is straight to the point and even shows how much better it is compared to Hillary's. For example,

• Defend the rule of law and the Constitution of the United States. Nobody is above the law.
• Protect our Constitutional liberties.
• Reduce taxes across-the-board, especially for working and middle-income Americans who will receive a massive tax reduction.

I prefer neither. I prefer a mix of both.

I'm not so much a fan of left vs right but I voted left given the degenerate state of the right today.

I am in favor of fact-based government which changes policy to what works not what someone's ideology says. I'm in favor of making science-based decisions on issues where the science is settled. I'm in favor of putting people's needs ahead of ideology. All of that makes me a leftist today.

If the right ever is willing that their theories don't work (Kansas), makes decisions based on science (AGW) and comes up with policies (health care, social security) which put people's lives ahead of ideology and stops screwing the poor and needy to benefit the wealthy, I will seriously look at them again. I'm totally not holding my breath.

I've not relied upon what any media (rightish or leftish) say about his agendas.
Only what he says or publishes.
And of course, I differ with him in areas where he leans away from libertarianism.

Socialism or bust!

Third way.

LEFT.
There are too many poor folks and we need to prepare for mass redundancies across the world caused by digital technology and robotics.

The USA has got a few years now to find good left wing candidates for Senate and Congress seats, and another good President like Mr Obama.

It's up to the people now to sort it all out.
