[On Bernie Sanders losing to Hillary Clinton]

According to Victor Vizcarra, 48, a Trump presidency might not be all that bad based upon what he has seen of Trump on his reality show “The Apprentice.”

“A dark side of me wants to see what happens if Trump is in,” Vizcarra, an IT worker, said. “There is going to be some kind of change, and even if it’s like a Nazi-type change. People are so drama-filled. They want to see stuff like that happen. It’s like reality TV. You don’t want to just see everybody be happy with each other. You want to see someone fighting somebody.”

Jackie Becerra, 28, agreed.

“Everyone is like: ‘Trump has these terrible social issues. He hates Muslims and he hates the L.G.B.T. community,’” she said. “But our world is big enough that he’s not actually going to implement any of those changes in a realistic way. But what he will do is potentially audit the federal government, and he will try to break up some of the banks and try to at least influence government that way. However, with Hillary, it will just be a complacent, run-of-the-middle-of-the-road presidency.”
