What's wrong with a Republican president per se? Or are you talking about Trump specifically? Or do you think it is good policy that half the country votes blue, the other red into eternity and nobody is willing to actually look at details and policies anymore? I don't.
What do Hillary supporters think they are voting for?

Thier policies and supporters.
I look at their polices and don't like what I see.I also look at what 2 of the last 3 republican presidents did and don't like that either (Reagan and Bush Jr)
Obama and Bill didn't send 100k + troops to war.Obama and Bill didn't double military spending.Obama and Bill didn't give massive tax cuts to the rich.Obama and Bill didn't think it was ok that millions of people didn't have health insurance etc,etc,etc.
1. Obama started two new Wars - Libya and Syria. His quick troop withdrawl in Iraq led to ISIS.
2. Obama kept military spending at the same levels GW did. Bill, no idea.
3. Obama and Bill grew the income inequality gap tremendously. Remember offshoring? That pesky little detail Bernie built his wildly successful campaign on? Income inequality grew enmourously over the past 30 years because many Presidents, including Dummy and Syphillus, exported American jobs to Mexico and China.
4. The Affordable Care Act is a joke and a fraud. Keep your doctor. Premiums won't go up. Keep your plan !!!! All lies. Premiums skyrocketed and many plans and insurers are dropping out of the program. It's dogshit. Most people hate it. The stragglers on the bottom rung of the latter love it
Compare the number of troops and cost of Libya and Syria from Obama and the number of troops and cost of Iraq from Bush,its no comparison.Bush invading Iraq led to ISIS.
Obama did keep military spending at the same levels GW did,but Bush and Reagan massively increased it from their predecessors levels.I am not a fan of spending more on defense than the next 11 countries combined.
Income inequality is mostly due to Reagan.
The Affordable Care Act isn't perfect,but its better than what we had before it as well as more people having and have access to healthcare.A future democratic President will make it better by making medicare available to all.
Military spending and tax cuts are sideshow attractions to the main events: NAFTA, the individual mandate and the next big thing, entitlement cuts.
On a side note, Dubya can cite Clinton signing the 1998 Iraq Liberation Act as prior support for invading Iraq. I remember Albright trying to drum up support to invade Iraq. Anyone remember this:
No one remembers Wag the Dog references? Lewinsky scandal shows up on tv and then there is the bombing?
As for the superdelegates, you don't know how much of an effect it had on regular voters.

I don't consider war and military spending that cost trillions of dollars and thousands of lives sideshow attractions
Clinton didn't send over 150 thousand troops to Iraq
super delegates don't force people to vote for who they don't want to vote for.
Bill just set the stage for Bush.
Hillary voted for Bush to have unlimited power.
And bet dollars to donuts, if she gets the chance, Shillary will send hundreds of thousands of troops somewhere in her first term.
