>To suggest that Trump has 'very limited' political experience when he's been rubbing shoulders with the country's political elites for a few decades is simply disingenuous. To argue that he's remotely as experienced as Hilary Clinton is simply disingenuous. >gotchange's whole point is about expecting more from politicians, and asking why the expectations are lowered on the Trump side. gotchange's whole point was that somehow, something (not sure what) is biased against Hilary here. Trump is being skewered about this on every channel, on every website. What more do you want? This is a massive scandal, and I'm sure there's more to come. >gotchange's point is that some people give Trump a lower bar of expectations because he's an 'outsider' or 'new at this' No, my expectations are lower for Trump because he has a history of being a buffoon. But you do realize there's a difference between "expectation" and "acceptance"? For what it's worth, I think they are both terrible candidates. I have no idea how Trump got this far, but I don't think there's another candidate that Hilary could have possibly beat.

> To argue that he's remotely as experienced as Hilary Clinton is simply disingenuous. No-one is saying that. I just said that he's not "very limited". > Trump is being skewered about this on every channel, on every website. What more do you want? ... my expectations are lower for Trump because ... realize there's a difference between "expectation" and "acceptance" The fact that despite all his mess, he is still a serious contender in the competition, and that means plenty of people are forgiving him and accepting him, despite the media coverage, and regardless of your personal opinion. It's actually a pretty shameful indictment on the American public, that so many of them support such a candidate.
