And at the very time we need a President who inspires us as morally admirable, we are faced with two equally distasteful candidates. Judgment. God’s judgment. When Repulicans say Clinton is corrupt, and Democrats say Trump is crazy, I sadly agree. And if someone says God may be judging us all, I sadly agree.
