Letter: Clinton's qualifications dwarf Donald Trump's

A recent letter about not voting for Hillary Clinton and instead voting for Donald Trump raises a few questions about his thinking, or lack of same.

Clinton's mileage accomplishments? One would expect same if visiting different countries.

No accomplishments while first lady? She attempted to start a health program, assisting those unable to obtain insurance coverage due to preexisting conditions. The GOP made every attempt to keep it from happening. Does hypocrisy or campaign funding ring a bell?

Benghazi? A GOP-led committee found no fault, and they also kept quiet testimony from two generals stating Clinton never gave any stand down orders.

Emails? After the fact, a couple now may be classified as top-secret, yet they weren't classified before.

Trump's bullying approach found on a playground is not what most prefer in the top position of this great country. His "accomplishments" had an assist from his father. And he makes statements like having 11 million immigrants removed and building a wall and having Mexico pay for it. Right.

His businesses have had at least four bankruptcies, leaving many investors and employees hurt financially. His airline venture, vodka company and oversized yacht are all gone, as he couldn't make the payments. He would be the least qualified and have no experience in any governing function. He already has shown his lack of knowledge regarding Syria and the entire Middle East conflict.

Clinton, as secretary of state, was challenged with the mess created by the former administration.
