Disapproval of her is not support of Trump. Claiming they’re equally bad is, because it’s giving Trump waaaaaaaaaaaaaaay too much credit.
A logical alternative under your view is that I’m not giving her enough credit.
To be fair, during the election one could assume they were both horrible for different reasons. Now we know he is definitely as horrible as was originally thought, while she is still just presumed so. Plus, he’s completely incompetent while she is not.
It’s one thing to say that she would be as horrible as, say, Pence or Cruz, but it’s a real stretch to say she’s equal to Trump. At the very least she would actually do her job rather than just golfing all the damn time. And she would have more of an opinion than to just remember the last thing that the last person told her.
People during the campaign compared her possible presidency as akin to 8 more years of Obama, and there’s no way one could claim, from an informed opinion, that Obama was as bad as Trump is.
Meanwhile, I do feel it’s possible Trump might be helping the Democrats by indirectly affecting change.
