if you believe in free trade and market capitalism Hillary is closer. Trump hits some hot button issues that some conservatives care about but few actually understand. A lot of republicans who are serious about these issues and who wants serious solutions to them instead of a pat on the head and a piece of candy see Hillary as a better choice than Trump. The court is the problem. The left wing activist are no longer happy controlling blue states and now are using an activist court system to ignore they actual Constitution and force their beliefs on the entire country. That is bigger threat and letting Hillary pick the next couple of justices could result in a complete loss of state rights and local control. This country works because people can run their own area to a large degree the way they want to and the extremist left who want to change that are a threat to our entire political system. Trump is a mess but he will be weak and can be limited by Congress, Hillary won't be.
