Trump or Clinton: Who Would You Rather Have, Part 2

More questions to help you decide whether to vote, and if so, for whom. Those who shared their answers to the last round were split just about 50-50 between the two candidates.

A man who accepted the Mexican president’s invitation to meet to discuss immigration policy, and followed up that emollient performance with a bellicose speech, or a woman who declined the invitation and attacked her opponent for accepting it?

A man who consorted with known gangsters early in his career as a property developer, or a woman who provided preferential treatment at the State Department to major foreign contributors to her family foundation?

A man who is unfamiliar with the security rules that apply to email communications, or a woman who once knew them but told the FBI that she does not remember whether she was briefed on those rules?


A man whose vocabulary and technical skills are so limited that Tweeting is his principal means of communicating, or a woman so skilled that she required a personal server and over a dozen devices to handle her communications?

A man who spent part of the past month meeting with hispanic and black groups which he has mightily offended, or a woman who spent it working the watering holes of the very rich in order to raise tens of millions of dollars from wealthy friends?

A man who will not sign on to the Trans Pacific Partnership (TPP), or a woman who has left herself room to sign a revised version in the interest of satisfying our allies that we are not ceding control of the Asia-Pacific rim to China?

A man who might pull out of NATO if he can’t renegotiate the sharing of its financial burdens, or a woman who would rather bear a disproportionate share of the organization’s cost in order to prevent further territorial expansion by Vladimir Putin?

A man who proposes to cut taxes on rich as well as non-rich, with substantial benefit to real estate developers, depending on growth to make up the lost revenue, or a woman who proposes to raise taxes on the top 1 percent to fund over $1 trillion in new benefits, while leaving tax rates on most others as they now are?

A man who believes climate change is a “hoax”, places great weight on restoring the coal industry to health, and would encourage fracking, or a woman who believes climate change is as great a threat as President Obama says it is, and would have us rely increasingly on wind and solar power so as to reduce emissions?

A man pledged to “repeal and replace” Obamacare, or woman pledged to correct Obamacare’s weaknesses?

So, all in all, who would it be?
