Do you agree with Jim Webb's take on Hillary and Trump?

Asked by Cruiser (40449points) March 4th, 2016

Former Senator, combat veteran, former Democratic Presidential hopeful Jim Webb said some stunning words this morning on MSNBC Morning Joe’s program.

“Webb, who briefly flirted with an independent bid before deciding against it, said on Friday morning that the Democratic front-runner wasn’t inspirational.”

“I would not vote for Hillary Clinton,” Webb said on MSBNC’s “Morning Joe.”

“The reason why Donald Trump is getting so much support right now is because people are seeing him as the only one who has the courage to clean out the stables of the American governmental system right now,” ”

“When asked whether he’d vote for Trump, Webb said he wasn’t closed to the idea. “I’m not sure yet. I don’t know who I’m going to vote for,” he said.”

“He said Clinton would simply continue President Barack Obama’s policies, but that with Trump, things would change — but he’s not convinced it would be for the better.”

“If you’re voting for Donald Trump, you may get something very good or very bad,” Webb said. “If you’re voting for Hillary Clinton, you’re going to be getting the same thing.”

I have to admit I was taken aback by the frankness of his comments in this interview and of course how he said unequivocally how he would not vote for Hillary and left the door open for a vote for Trump.

Do you agree with Webb that Hillary will be more of the same and Trump possess that unique quality to “clear out the stables of the American governmental system right now”?

This election cycle continues to amaze me.

Serious comments please.
