​I would have thought a presidential candidate, or just somebody who was
member of the human race, would know that murdering children and torturing
for fun is something one shouldn't do. But Trump does not know this because
Trump is inhuman, nevertheless you are willing to trust this creature with
your life. I don't get it.

​Failing to follow government guidelines concerning Email servers on the
one side, and ​torturing people for fun and murdering children for their
father's crimes on the other are both against the rules, so I guess they're
both equally reprehensible. Or have I perhaps made an error in my moral
calculus?
