Trump Vs Clinton USP’s:
We see good and bad on both sides. Clinton has many good points on her side. She is intelligent, knowledgeable and a polished speaker. She knows how to be diplomatic and have mastered the art of political strategy. Trump, on the other hand, is gruff, loud, and slightly racist. If we considered this general elections as a season of Game of Thrones, Hillary might be the Cersei Lannister of GOT and Trump might be Khal Drogo.
Why Trump Is Better:
There are a few reasons in the area of foreign policy what could make Trump potentially a better president than Hillary:
- Hillary sees Russia as an enemy, while Trump on the other side have made it clear that he’d be willing to work with it. we prefer the latter, as if two world powers work hand in hand, it will be a win-win situation for all. US have enough enemies in the world, and with Russia been it’s friend they could come up with a better strategy to fight jihadist terrorism. With Russia on their side the US will then have an advantage against the crazy North Korea.
- Trump supports Israel while Hillary is less supportive to the Jews nation. She supports the Muslim Brotherhood and is friends with the Arafats, which is considered a terrorist organization in several Middle Eastern countries.
- If we look into Hillary’s track record, she flavors war more than peace as compared to Trump. Hillary have openly supported the invasion of Iraq & overthrowing of Libya’s Muammar Gaddafi. She have also supported many of the wrong sides like Syria bombing, Afghanistan War and supported the Muslim Brotherhood in Egypt, which wanted to turn it into an Islamist regime. Her decisions have helped in creating a crisis in the middle east giving rise to ISIS and the Jihadi mentality.
Why Hillary Is Better:
There are a few reasons what could make Hillary potentially a better president than Hillary:
- Donald Trump is a not so good businessman with four bankrupt businesses under his brand name, a record of failures including Trump Steaks & Trump University. His failures have turned his inherited fortune into a bad enough financial situation, and now most major Wall Street banks will not lend him money. On the other hand Hillary has been the first lady of US, a successful U.S. Secretary of State and have proved her worth in her role.
- Trump’s policies are more ridiculous than practical. Like building a wall and making Mexico pay for it to stop immigration is the most hilarious solution to any immigration problem. He claims to get more jobs back to America but offshoring jobs in the middle of his campaign. He took the help of his enemy nation Russia to hack Clinton’s emails. Hillary’s policies on the other hand are more practical.
Neither of them is good when it comes to economy. Hillary Clinton is not as good as her husband Bill Clinton. Hillary said she will destroy the coal industry, where as Bill Clinton have never tried to destroy any industry. Bill has always been more moderate compared to Hillary who is more extreme by comparison. Trump on the other hand would not want to shut any industries, he have favored the industries to return which will bring back manufacturing jobs.
Both Trump & Hillary have their positive and negative points. No matter whoever wins the election, he or she will never be the greatest President in history. That list will always be topped by the three best US Presidents of all time – Abraham Lincoln (American Civil War), FDR (WWII), and George Washington (Revolutionary War).
