One thing that won't show up on the "trump accomplishments" list is his taking advantage of the corporate tax laws. Most people see it as a despicable trait, but I think it proves his understanding on what's broken. I think a shakeup by Trump in this area isn't even a gamble. I think it can only end positively.

The gamble is in what I'd expect from diplomatic relations, which is an area where Hillary excels.

In my mind, a Trump presidency appears to result in a stronger economy for us, but may hurt us on the world stage. That's the gamble I refer to, and while I don't know if it's one I will take or not, I do think it it should illicit more thought than to brush it away saying that it's never worth the gamble.
