    Donald Trump was an unexpected runner for this year’s presidential election. At first, many people thought his running for the presidency was a joke.

The reason I believe that she did a better job is that she answers the questions much more directly than Trump, although, she doesn't answer them completely correct, Trump does not answer the questions correctly at all. For example, the first topic that was talked about being, "Are the candidates modeling appropriate behavior for today's youth?" Hillary answered the question somewhat correctly and she stayed on topic, Trump did not answer and completely steered the conversation. That is just one of the many reasons Hillary is a better fit to be the next president.…
