Trump is loud-mouthed and arrogant. Hillary is a flat-out crook. It's a no-brainer.
One of them is getting in. Which one allows more freedom of gospel is the one you really need to vote for, I think. And I'm not even American.

Constantine, Charlemagne, Louis, and others allowed plenty of freedom for the gospel. Howbeit Christianity never seems to thrive when the outward circumstances seem favorable? But in the opposite circumstances, we see true growth if not revival.
