I have hatred for corruption, too.
Clinton is corrupt (pardon me, "Clintons"), and that to me is a no-brainer.
But Trump is far from exempt from laying out the claim that he too is corrupt, but just in a different way.
Power corrupts. They've both been in the "power game" for decades. As I said, we're ****ed either way, but we are forced to choose how we want to be ****ed.
The choice between these two is disgusting, in my humble opinion. It's absolutely horrid that these two are our presidential choices. The subtext to this reality is even more disgusting and horrid. Who the hell participated in getting these wack-jobs this far along to the seat of the most powerful political person on the frickin planet? Have we the people lost our ability to care (or have we ever cared) about whether or not we continue to select corrupt individuals to possess coveted seats in the Kingdom of Washington?
Hell, dunno. Maybe it's just not possible to elect a person that actually serve (not rule) in the White House who's competent and not corrupt?
Clinton was elected by the democrats who voted for her in the primary.
Trump was elected by the republicans who voted for him in the primary.
To pretend otherwise is a fantasy.
