Trump may be offensive; but Hillary can't govern

I want to say first that Trump has not made this race easy for himself.  It's like he successfully ran a 100 million dollar company but trying to get to a billion dollar company takes additional skill set. He successfully defeated 16 other candidates in the GOP primary , but now that he is the nominee the spotlight be one much brighter.  So will the establishment be proven wrong again? 

Anyways, the focus of this article is on Hillary. I thought that may be she was just a weak candidate. She precedes two previous nominees who had immense charm so she had a lot to live up to. 

If you listen to the Hillary folks you would think that the race should be a blow out in her favor but it's not and here's why.

She is not truthful. She has allowed the email scandal to get a lot of traction. She has a lot of campaign resources to help her answer questions but yet she has not been able to quiet this issue. 

She stated initially that the Bengazi attacks were a result of a video when she knew that it was a lie. How do we know this? Because of numerous reports that indicate the government knew it was a planned attack.

Another issue is the relationship between State and the Clinton foundation. The Obama administration made it very clear that there needed to be a firewall. That obviously didn't happen. She thinks that it's a coincidence that foreign entities paid millions of dollars to the foundation without any favors? 

The world is on fire. Now there is word that Iran was able to get exemptions from the nuclear deal. Libya is now a failed state. North Korea is on the rise.  They actively opposed the Israeli PM re-election. 

Suffice it to say I won't likely be voting for Hillary despite Trumps flaws.  Hillary has a higher bar in part because she has governed before however because of these I can't in good conscience vote for her.
