It's a moot comparison to me, I can't fathom why anyone could possibly think either is an adequate choice.

It's hilarious that "the smartest people on this forum" constantly belittle trump, not for his policies, but bcause he's orange and has "little hands"
For all Trumps flaws, and yes, they are many of them. He's a much better choice than anyone else. I know enforcing the rule of law and putting Americans first seems racist and mean, but it's not, and it's clear no other candidate has Americas best interest at heart.
The idea he'll destroy America is ridiculous, the establishment has given us low wages, a static economy and endless wars, the very same people who rally against this stuff are the ones who want the continuation of policies that caused it. Trump is not a conservative, hell, he's barely a republican, but he's an American and wants what's best for other Americans. That puts him in top spot in my book.

When youre more vague than Hillary, its a problem.

Fucking well said sir! Well said...
The problem is "the smartest people on here" don't bother to weed through all the irrelevant issues to get the specifics and details of his message. They are too simple minded to see through the MSM propaganda. The real problem is that the government legalized weaponized propaganda to be used on the American people within the boundaries of America. http://www.businessinsider.com/ndaa-legalizes-propaganda-2012-5
This is all out psychological warfare on the American people by the globalist establishment that have usurped our democratic republic. Trump has been on their radar for a long time. They have been watching him closely. How you ask? Through the NSA and the unconstitutional Patriot Act of course! Which was the result of a false flag terrorist attack joint operation between the Saudi's and our criminal globalist government. The NSA has known about Trumps patriotism and love for this country for many years. They also knew that he was willing to risk his entire fortune, and his legacy to save America and our way of life. He has lost multi millions of dollars doing this, many business relationships, and the media has done irrevocable damage to his reputation. He is risking everything because he realizes as a lot of us do, that this is it our last chance. IF we as the American people do not rise with Trump and support his America first mission, Then our way of life will end. Figuratively speaking this is America's Thermopylae. Trump is Leonidus and Hillary and the Globalists are Xerxes. America this our last stand...

Nothing like the self crowned intellectual elite of this sub using a 300 analogy to justify their candidate. 
Is anyone gonna explain the intracacies of these policy positions to me?

Just because there is a movie on the subject doesn't mean it isn't one of the most historically significant battles of history.
I didnt crown myself an intellectual elite. I'm no elitist in any sense.
But what's funny is I'm here trying to have an intelligent discussion and you are here to question people's intellect, but you cant spell intricacies... even with spell check at your finger tips... 
If your so smart you should be able to figure out the intricacies yourself, just by using google to search the internet and do some reading.

Where am I to even start with that question? Way too generalized...I would love to talk specifics with you, just clarify the issue you would like to discuss.

Thermopylae is not one of the most historically significant battles of history. Hell, it isn't even the most significant battle of that invasion. Sure, it is symbolically interesting, but the Persian invasion was actually stopped at the naval battle of Salamis.

I believe this is arguable. Thermopylae is extremely historically significant. This battle is studied meticulously at West point along with many other historically significant battles. It marked the beginning of the invasion of Greece by the Persians. Which as you said led to much greater naval battles in which the Greeks were victorious. But the historical symbolism is significant, I'm afraid much more so then your giving it credit.

How is the US going to force Mexico to pay for it
How much will it cost us to build, maintain, and staff
How much will it stem illegal immigration and smuggling in general
Is it cost efficient

Persia had already conquered much of Northern Greece by the time the Spartans headed to Thermopylae

If youre interested, a guy named Dan Carlin does a podcast called Hardcore History, and his most recent trilogy deals with this time period, from thr rise and fall of Assyria and Babylon all the way to Salamis.

Most Americans don't give a fuck who pays for the wall, Trump said the wall would cost $12 billion, experts are calling for $15 to $25 billion, so be it.
"Is it cost efficient"
How come you never worried about the $130 billion PER YEAR illegals and their children cost US taxpayers? Deporting illegals and buying a wall is cheap relative to having them live in the US, the wall offers an excellent return on investment.
