They are both awful candidates, both dishonest in their own way.
But Trump is off the wall. He reminds me too much of Mussolini, the strong man who will get things sorted by a strong arm. Dirty Harry arrives at the White House – Make My Day, Punks, his finger on the nuclear button
In business he’s a serial defaulter; a peddler of falsehoods, wild accusations, conspiracy theories. He utters racist insults, and attacks the independence of the judiciary. He refuses to reveal his taxes. undermines confidence in the world trade order by threatening to tear up past agreements. He supports torture and the deliberate killing of the families of alleged terrorists. He admires the ex-KGB man who now runs Russia.
The fact that he stands on the verge of being elected says volumes about the alienation of voters in the US today – and in the West in general. Farage’s support for Trump should be a warning to the messianic appeal he exerts over a minority of voters in the UK
How drac can say Obama is worse than Bush is beyond me. On one side, she claims that Clinton would involve the US in Syria and other military adventures – and she’s right – and on the other hand she says Bush is the better president – the Bonanza TV-loving man who plunged the US into the most irresponsible and bloody military adventurism that we have known for a long time.
Both are bad – I would prefer Elizabeth Warren, the Massachusetts senator described by Trump as ‘Pocahontas’ lol – you have to admire his insults, did he visit JC?) But given this awful choice, Clinton has to be the one.

Yes, they are both entirely unsuitable to be president.

In regards to his business management, I dont think a handful of bankruptsies across the hundreds of business he is involved with is actually that bada record personally. He does say a lot of stupid things, but i’ve never seen him say somthing that I would consider to be racist. I agree that he should release his tax records, but exchanging his taxes for Clinton’s emails (as he said in the debate) would be acceptable to me. He doesn’t seem to respect due process, but Clinton doesn’t either.

Voters feel alienated because of Obama, this is the point I was trying to make. Bush made a lot of mistakes, but I don’t think he divided the country as much as Obama has. Obama wasn’t in any hurry to leave Iraq or Afganistan, he made repeated delays to Bush’s timetable which I had already mentioned.

I honestly don’t know anything about Elizabeth Warren. But I disagree with you that Clinton is a better choice.
