I really don't like Hilary and I think she's massively dishonest. But I honestly think she is the greatest chance America has of defeating Trump, and Trump is such an egotistical walking disaster with a dead rat on his head that if I could vote I would totally vote Hillary just to make sure Trump can't get in.
For months I had been saying I'd rather abstain than vote for Hilary. But back then I didn't think Trump had any realistic chance of becoming the president. Now shit's getting real and I would absolutely vote Hilary just to stop Trump becoming president, if I could. That cunt could start WW3.

The way I see it, every complaint against Hillary, Trump is way worse.
Dishonesty - Trump lies every single day. His favorite words are "I Heard..." or "People are saying..." The fucker just tweeted a blatantly anti-semitic meme today, then claimed it wasn't what everybody thought it was. Even though the origin is exactly what everybody thought it was. Clinton lies like every other politician. The only difference is that she's got a vagina and has been the presumptive nominee for 4 years, and has had 4 years of preparatory smear applied. If we 'knew' who the Republican nominee was like we 'knew' about Clinton, we'd be in the same boat on that side. The GOP has spent every moment they weren't doing any legislation on witch hunting Hillary and making every American fully aware of her every flaw.
Fraud/Corruption - Take a look at Trump's bankruptcy records. Look at how many real people he has intentionally and knowingly defrauded out of money. There are hundreds of small businesses that no longer exist because he contracted them for work on his properties and then filed for bankruptcy without paying them. This is all legal because of bankruptcy law, but it most certainly not ethical. He targeted US military veterans with his Trump University gambit.
Ties to the rich/Wall Street - Trump is a billionaire(though not as rich as he'd have you believe). If you think, as a lower or middle class person, that he has your interests in mind, you're fucking insane. He and his friends are going to do just fine. If you think his trickle down plan will work, check Kansas, Louisiana, and Oklahoma and their multiple billion dollar deficits. They literally have to have emergency legislative sessions in order to prevent their school systems from being shut down. Now check what California has done since they ejected the governator and his policies and raised taxes on the rich.
The Hillary hatred is as manufactured as it is overblown. I'm not excited about voting for her, but if it was any other career democratic candidate who had 4 years of smear applied, I'd probably feel the same way about them, too.
