Lesser of Two Evils


What is the lesser of two evils -- Trump calling the country Haiti a "shithole" or the Clintons' stealing $1.3 billion of earthquake relief funds from this same country? See: National Review Article.

Sidebar; President Truman once called something a "pile of manure." A reporter then asked Bess Truman if she couldn't get her husband to say "fertilizer" instead of "manure?" She replied that it had taken her many years to get him to say "manure" ...

St. Peter


If the presidential election option this November is between Hellery Clinton and Donald Trump (and I am increasing doubtful that it will be Hellery), then it boils down to a rather unpalatable choice between the lesser of two evils. In a way one can compare this dilemma to St. Peter inspecting the voluminous life records of these two souls trying to get through the Pearly Gates ... ticking off all of their venial and cardinal sins.

The annals for Trump are replete with venial sins (mostly made because of his large ego and loud mouth)  and, one can easily surmise, a few cardinal sins. On the other hand, Hellery is much more stingy with her venial sins ... but makes up for them in spades on the cardinal side. In fact, this cardinal sin list comprises the majority of St. Peter's huge folio on this fallen woman. Need I list this plethora of her consequential stumbles here?

That is why, much as I, playing St. Peter, would like to deny both of these souls entry into heaven, but, being forced to choose one, will give the wave through to Trump in November.
