Dump Trump or Hill No?

Voters Disappointed in Presidential Choices

Christopher Spry, Reporter

     The presidential election has caused tremendous tension between republicans and democrats, and many Americans are unhappy with the options they have for candidates. Republican candidate Donald Trump is running against Democratic candidate Hillary Clinton. Both of the candidates are unfit to be the commander in chief.

     Trump is experienced in business but has no experience or knowledge on how to lead a country.

     Clinton has been a senator for New York and was Secretary of State. She has previous knowledge in politics, but she cannot be trusted. She has been accused of hiding tens of thousands of emails from the public and deleting even more.

     Trump has bragged about sexually assaulting women and when asked about it he said, “It was just locker room talk.” Then he later said that he didn’t sexually assault any women and said he would sue his accusers. Someone who is accused of sexually assaulting women is unfit to run a country. Since the video of him talking about groping and kissing women came out, several women have claimed to be victims of sexual assault by Donald Trump.

     Americans cannot trust someone who has refused to release his tax returns and has admitted to using loopholes to get past the system. Trump won’t answer questions about his taxes or allegedly sexually assaulting women, but when he is interviewed and people ask him why he did something, he will avoid the question and say that they’re “wrong.”

     Clinton has claimed that she has never lied, and there is video proof of her saying that during an interview.

     “I don’t believe I have, and I don’t believe I ever will,” Clinton said in an interview with Scott Pelley from CBS News on Feb. 19. How can you trust someone who has lied repeatedly but doesn’t admit to any of them?

     We need someone who actually knows what they’re doing in office. Trump and Clinton are not suitable for this task. They do not have the right type of experience to lead the United States. America is at the point of now having to vote for either one of them, whether it’s someone who is accused of sexually assaulting women or someone who lies and steals and hides it from Americans.
