But I have to disagree that Clinton is only slightly better. Even with her flaws, she is light years ahead of Trump. Trump has all the trademark flaws of a politician and billionaire businessman, but he also has countless personal and character flaws that make Clinton pale in comparison.
I'd go so far to say that not only is Clinton light years ahead so is the democratic party compared to the GOP right now. Pretty sure I've said it before but it's quite simple to me: One party has a platform based on equality and inclusion. The other party has a platform based on exclusion and bigotry.

Once the GOP manages to catch up on basic things like human rights and people actually being equal it's not even worth talking about their specific policies IMO. For that to happen you have to pass that basic requirement and they quite simply do not at this time.
