But my reasons for not liking Clinton are more important to my country's future...
The White Supremacists, Neonazi's, the Klan, etc have always been in Trump's corner. Let's face it, it might not amount to half, but there are quit a few "deplorables" for him. This is why to not vote Trump, not that in California it will make much of a difference - for the future. Nothing Hillary would do will be that awful. She'll raise taxes on the rich, which was quit successful during the terms of Bill in creating a budget surplus and economic growth. Oh the SCOTUS, as if Roe V Wade and same-sex marriage and other things bogeymen of the the Right will actually be overturned, breaking multiple precedents. There's nothing Hillary will do to jeopardize the future. I sincerely have no idea where you get this notion.
A presidency of Trump will help legitimize the fore-mentioned groups and I wouldn't be surprised to find some filling vacancies in high offices - if Trump knows who and what he's appointing. That's right. I fear the rise of the so-called Alt-Right under Trump, even if the man himself has nothing to do with it. Then there's the issues that he seems to know nothing of economic policy or economics in general, foreign policy*, the constitution... If you care about the future, Trump is not your man.
*the lunatic actually wants nuclear proliferation. Both Democrats and Republicans know what a bad idea this is.
