Why did so many people say they were afraid of Donald Trump, but not about Hilary Clinton?

We're too busy getting out and making it so she wouldn't win. Lots of people said she be horrible but guess their not really the tantrums crying on tv types

I read plenty of people saying they thought she was scary and would either start a war or WWWIII. Just do a search on "scary Hillary" and see what turns up.

Because most people aren't scared of Hilary because they have no reason to be afraid of her. No, she wouldn't cause WWIII.

I've been saying it for months, but never in public because I'm a liberal arts major and I didn't want to make enemies of the people grading my tests. It's not just the nuclear war thing, there's just something off about her.

Fear of being called sexist if they criticized her?

Figured she'd win. At which point, criticizing her could have been dangerous to your health.

After being under Bloomberg for 12 years, they have absolutely nothing to fear.

For the record I don't care. I am not afraid of Hillary or Trump. Just posting so you know a few of us apathetic people still exist haha. But in all seriousness the country needs a damn leader and it doesn't matter who that is as long as they are able to keep the country stable and advancing, and not turn it into a nuclear wasteland, or initiate a trail of tears.

I suppose mayor of New York is an okay consolation prize but at this point I don't know why Hillary would want to stay in the public eye, I suppose being in office raises the stakes for anybody investigating you. She might be able to beat De Blasio, a lot of people seem to dislike him in NYC and Republicans would probably vote for her before him but I don't think she would ever be very popular since you'll have Republicans and the left of her party hating her.

If she were to run for mayor of New York, it would certainly be to keep the cash flowing into the Clinton Foundation, since that money has probably completely dried up since she lost the presidential election. If you're going to make a living from peddling influence, you have to have some influence to peddle.
