Trump is different. While the Clintons MIGHT be shady behind closed doors, Trump constantly says horrific things while the spotlight is directed at him. And then he doubles down. There is just no reasonable deniability as to how awful he is, and people are going to tell their children, "yes, we knew exactly how hateful he was, and we voted for him anyways"?
I support your decision to vote for Gary Johnson. He seems like a reasonable option to me. If I believed Hillary was as awful as you think she is he would probably be my choice.

Appreciate the measured and reasonable response. I'd love if people wouldn't mistake me for a Trump apologist/sycophant. I'm far from it. I dislike Trump and Clinton equally. They're both, in my opinion, deplorable people.
While I agree many of the negatives associated with The Clintons can be classified as tenuous, I'm a firm believer in where there's smoke there's fire. Add on the fact that Hillary is the biggest warhawk of all the candidates, I just can't even consider her. The military spending needs to be reigned in, and Hillary (regardless of what her current position is now) isn't going to do that.
