Yea, exactly. Remember when Obama wore a tan suit and people lost their minds? Can you imagine if he did even half of what Trump has done?
And then there's also the sexism. It amazes me how many people, even fully admitting that they don't like Trump and think he's terrible for the country, say that Hilary wouldn't have been any better. And they're truly adamant about it.
Look, I don't think either one of them were great options. But the things people - mostly men - have said to me about her... it's astonishing. No one provides a good reason why she shouldn't be the president instead, so they start stumbling over their words and/or make the most asinine arguments.
There was someone sitting near me at a bar last week that started a conversation with the bartender. The bartender ranted for a few minutes about how much he can't stand Trump. Then when he was asked, "So at this point, do you think Hilary would have been a better option?" he replied, "Hell no." When asked why, he said because her husband cheated on her and she stayed with him. So... Trump cheats on his spouse(s) repeatedly and pays off porn stars, but because Hilary was cheated on 20+ years ago and decided to work it out with her spouse, that puts her below Trump in terms of governing the country.
This is where we're at.
