A question many adults who can vote are asking themselves is whether they’re going to vote for Clinton or Trump

Hillary Clinton and Donald Trump are tightening their grips on the Democratic and Republican presidential nominations.

Both Clinton and Trump are the candidates who debated on Sept. 26th. Many people who usually vote democrat hands down are voting for Trump just because of how in the dark we are about Clinton and her life.

Trump is a candidate many, including myself, find completely and utterly ineligible to run for the presidency, but he does have a mass following. Many speculate that the only reason he has a mass, dominantly white, following is because he is the “American Dream”.

From what he’s told us and what we actually know; he’s rich out of his mind, has dated plenty of supermodels and actresses in his day but has also gotten his heart broken a lot as well.

He’s received plenty of backlash from just babbling on and on about random topics and borderline racist claims to top it off. He has also been endorsed by former KKK leader, David Duke, which pissed off many people as well.

Clinton on the other hand has plenty of government experience since she was our Secretary of State and First Lady. She also has had many obstacles in her way like the email allegation about her deleting many emails from her personal account to, or maybe not, cover up important government info with people out of our government.

Although Clinton looks like she is all good and well besides the emails, she also received backlash for leaving the 9/11 memorial remembrance early looking dearly sick and coming out of her daughter’s apartment only hours later perfectly fine and waving to fans.

All in all, the presidential election this year will be talked about for years to come and will be studied and despised by some on the outcome. All we can do as high school students is hope America doesn’t crumble due to poor leadership. Hopefully one of the candidates turns our thinking around and shows us that they are fully, maybe even exceedingly capable of being the leader of our country and in helping it thrive.
