Not a good reason

Not a good reason

I can think of plenty of reasons why someone might not want to vote for Clinton in the fall but this isn't a good one:

Victor Vizcarra, 48, of Los Angeles, said he would much prefer Mr. Trump to Mrs. Clinton. Though he said he disagreed with some of Mr. Trump’s policies, Mr. Vizcarra said he had watched “The Apprentice” and expected that a Trump presidency would be more exciting than a “boring” Clinton administration.

“A dark side of me wants to see what happens if Trump is in,” said Mr. Vizcarra, who works in information technology. “There is going to be some kind of change, and even if it’s like a Nazi-type change. People are so drama-filled. They want to see stuff like that happen. It’s like reality TV. You don’t want to just see everybody be happy with each other. You want to see someone fighting somebody.”

You know who else's campaign wasn't boring?

This is, unfortunately, not the first time I've heard this. I think there are a not insignificant number of Americans who feel this way, whether consciously or unconsciously. And in a sense they're right. A Trump administration is likely to be very exciting. But not in a good way.
