Credit to NCR for publishing this long overdue column explaining the pov of those who saw Trump as a better choice than Hillary.

Just to note:  my reasons for seeing Trump as a better choice than Hillary are not the same reasons as the author's.    

But without getting in to my specific reasons for my views, I think it's important to point out that the election results were due to a large variety of issues, and the needs and perceptions of a very diverse pool of voters:   

Abortion, SCOTUS picks, the economy, global relations, war,  healthcare, protection of religious freedoms, unions, trade reform, crime, immigration, infrastructure, taxes,  individual candidates qualifications and track records, and many more.

Sadly, too many people are explaining the 2016 election results as being about one thing:   the desire of millions of white people -- roughly half the nation --  for a white supremacist fascist state.
