The gif on the right is a woman who is on camera a lot making a weird face. On the left is a man mocking a journalist with cerebral palsy.
Heavymettle
People in comments arguing context of gifs instead of the clear fact op picked a gif for each where they looked dumb. Learn to joke.

In one picture, a woman is surprised by fireworks and a fuckton of balloon. In the other, a man is insulting a disabled reported. Yep, sure.
SvenWrightsen
Trump is not mocking a disabled reporter here. He has done his limb-flailing shtick countless times, aimed at Cruz, Hillary, many others.
Aha.AHAHAHAHA! Dont bullshit yourself and dont bullshit me, look at the guy he's insulting. Trump is a bully. Look at your children and tell
them that you're planning to vote for a man who incited violence and frequently bullies. That is if you have children.
Disabled reporter*. Just to say, comparing them both is fucking stupid.

well, I'd use my dead son as a prop too if there was someone running for PotUS who wanted to shit on his legacy
Yeah how terrible of him to use the story of his son's heroic actions to show to Trump that Muslims fight and die for America.

If you're judging candidates by the unflattering faces they sometimes make, you're the type of vain voter that's ruined this election.
Wolfsleigher
one of these two is "sometimes making a silly face" the other is making fun of someone

I don't think that was OP's intent. At least I hope. If i where to make a political post, I'd want to find the funniest pictures.

As usual with low-brow American political commentary, it is easier to piss on the politicians and feel superior than to think things out.
It never occurred to you that OP is taking out frustration because he knows just how corrupt both of them are?
THAT the OP doesn't like them is obvious. But, the comment isn't about corruption. It's just calling them both ugly poo-poo heads.
Because you can't show corruption in an image... jesus, it's like people have never been to imgur before.
JaronceOrTwice
Wtf is there to think about? These 2 muppets are a fucking joke, just like this whole political system, the summit of hypocrisy. Fuck them.

TheGame21x
Yeah...let's equate Trump actively mocking a reporter with a physical disability with Hillary being surprised.
Wow, why did everyone have this same reacion? OP is not equating them. The meme is saying that they both suck.
Trump is not ridiculing a disabled reporter here. He has done his limb-flailing shtick countless times, aimed at Cruz, Hillary, many others.
[deleted]
"How DARE she express excitement at being the first female presidential nominee of a major political party! What a fake bitch"
I wonder if people like you can feel joy. I make stupid faces when I see fireworks even if I expect them. They're pretty damn cool.
Why the fuck is she criticized for literally anything she does? Who the fuck cares? She was surprised by balloons and you're insulted? Fuck.
WTF is wrong with you. "Her shock isn't the same as mine, therefore it's insulting."
buckeyes995
Faking surprise is still nowhere near as bad as insulting someone's disability
SomeGuyYourMomKnows
These 2 next to each other, puts so much in to perspective.
userwiththatname
Thinking the same thing
SJohnson23
Indeed. One is faking surprise at balloons. The other is mocking a disabled journalist. If you think these things are equally bad, fuck you.
wdasm42
Thank you. Hilary Clinton may be a clown, but Trump is a potential Hitler
tbnd
I think Clinton would be far more likely of the 2 to resort to killing for power. Trump is about wealth, Clinton is about power in any form.
thegroovemonkey
You're a stupid person
A compelling argument, but I stand by my position nonetheless. They are two different types of people, and I see Clinton as a bigger threat.
Sumpte
Trump wants to use Nukes and admires Putin...how on earth did you reach this conclusion?
Trump doesn't want to use nukes, and both Obama and Clinton have said positive things of Putin. As for Clinton: https://youtu.be/mlz3-OzcExI

Don't forget the E-mails and the constant lying to the public. As well as trying to be a Bernie clone.
trob749
Hilary Might be an idiot and a corrupt one but at least she doesn't openly mock disabled people, there's zero excuse for that.
Fwords
One is making a face because they are having a good time, the other is making fun of a disabled person. Seems like an easy choice to me.
Right so he insulted a fellow candidate and a disabled person. What's your point? Is this acceptable to you?
ARandomHelljumper
It's not the issue of who, it's the fucking fact that a presidential nominee is going out of his way to harass citizens publicly.
PhilosophicalGinger
Haha you've made me realize how bullshit "some" of the hate HRC gets is. She's been working to become the dems nominee for like 10 years now
2: and when she is elected as the nominee she's not even allowed to look happy for it. Ugh, sucks that Bernie lost, but that's unreasonable.
peteforester
These two gifs feature: A man making fun of a disabled person, and a woman delighted by fireworks. That's not much of a comparison...
Alternately - these two gifs feature two corrupt politicians that are disliked for a variety of real reasons. Expect all that in an image?
One of these will represent the USA in the world, just imagine...
beatlegs
But if both are the same, that means I'm real smart and above it all
Tychodin
exactly. being against both sides is way easier than knowing things.
I know that I hate both of them, for a variety of reasons. Not equally, but yeah.
Where did the meme say they're the same?
the implication is it isn't much of a choice because they're both equally bad. where did it say they're any different?
I don't understand the assumption that they're the same. It's simply saying that they are both bad. Of course they aren't the same.
This isn't a post of dogs
How fucking despicable do you have to be to defend Trump mocking a disabled reporter?
Yes, he was. See my other reply for why you're wrong, I can't be bothered to explain it to another idiot who defends this sort of shit.
1) Yes, because you tried to argue that he wasn't mocking the disability when he clearly was. The fact he later did the same to Cruz, after
2) doing this 'bit' specifically about the disabled reporter, just means it was in his memory. Not that he thinks this is a good mockery.
azazyel
For people who don't know, Trump is making fun of a disabled reporter in that clip. Clinton is just in awe of some balloons.

It was pyrotechnics, not balloons, that she was reacting to. Not that it makes it any less funny. But, slightly more understandable.

I keep saying this, Clinton is normal politician bad, Trump is a despicable human being. It's not a hard choice.
Hillery had bill write a pres parx for her brother in law for tax evasion his last day In office , they are both slimmy.
The key is that, while both are slimy, they're not *equally* slimy. I can't fathom people who think they're equally as bad as each other.
theREALanon4000
hahaha that's well said. Clinton will lie to cover her ass bc she thinks the ends justify the means. Trump lies because fuck'em
Discoduck
And he's not even good at that.
There are other choices... sigh.
Definitely. Just none that are viable. Stein (and to a much lesser degree for me personally, Johnson) will sadly not win.
I think we're getting there, Sanders' success has demonstrated that a lot of us want someone like that, but this election isn't going to 1/2
a third party. 2/2
Vaanhalen
Blagojevich is a felon whose career is ruined and what he did pales in comparison. Your Democratic Party is showing.
I... What? Blagojevich isn't running. I'm not arguing the merits of each party, just each candidate.
Please see my reply to the other comment on my comment.
I must need glasses. Did @LapisScarab mention Blagojevich there?
I disagree that Hillary is "'normal politician' bad." I'm drawing a comparison. Blago is prison-bad. Hillary by comparison is Atrocious.
Oooooh. So you were just making a bad comparison. Got it.
That's an awful comparison. You can't say that Hillary is bad because Blagojevich went to jail.
If you wanna disagree with me that she's just a normal politician, fine, but I don't think that makes Trump more palatable.
ElTigreChang
Trump is a despicable human being that nobody in the establishment in either party likes, who will make things very difficult for him, and
Hilary is also a despicable human being, SLIGHTLY better at hiding it, while being strongly supported by the left's establishment.
Not to mention you should not even CONSIDER somebody who should be in jail. Lord knows what she'd do with that power.
I'll take mildly corrupt over narcissistic maniac if those are the only valid choices. I voted for Bernie but he lost. Hillary will do.
What exactly should she be in jail for? The emails? Sorry but that's not a moral hill I want the country to die on.
justinbaileyprime
She's been a senator and secretary of state. Unlike trump, we know what she'd do because she actually has a history in politics.
siponhorchara
Shes dedicated her life to her career because she wants good for this society. Look at the things she has done since college its amazing.
Out of curiosity, where are you getting your information from?

Does that make it better? He was mocking a disabled individual for being disabled

It's a description of exactly what he's doing. What do you think he left out?
That also doesn't make the above description an "oversimplification".
And? That doesn't change it being a douchey thing to do. "He does it all the time" doesn't make it better.

You're lying about the details. Also, are we really at the level of shaming lawyers for defending people? That's a constitutional right!
IAmDrBanner
But he did bankrupt a lot of people, cheat a lot of people and ruin at least a few people through ridiculous lawsuit and bullying.
They are both fuckwits who have fucked people over and contribunted negativiely to society in one way or another.
But as far as the Hillary thing goes? She was a lawyer. It is the job. I don't like it, but that is how it is.
True, but she's done plenty outside of her role as a lawyer that should remove her from the running. And he should have never been in it.
Okay, hold the fuck on. Hillary is reacting to pyrotechnics. Trump is *ridiculing a disabled reporter because he called out Trump's lies.*
Clinton's reaction was amusing, but hardly disqualifying, come on. That's the dumbest, pettiest reason over which to attack her.
"I don't want a leader..." is a statement implying disqualification. You also imply equivalency b/w mocking the disabled and being surprised
AudomatiX
You hold the fuck on.
ChewyVuitton
Trump didn't know he was disabled at the time
theimgurgiraffe
A fucking three year old could tell he was disabled. So unless trumps mental age is lower than that he should know.
JohnCalvinCoolidgeJr
honestly, as NOT a trump supporter at all I think that makes Hillary look worse
Tollo92
Yes but, that's not how you react to pyrotechnics. You ignore them and walk towards the camera.
doodledraft
The argument is that she's fake as fuck, and this is comparing that they're both stupid, not the reasons that they're so.
MostOfImgurGenerallyPissesMeOff

It bothers me that your post is genuine. Politicians' jobs should be more than don't look stupid ever.
And yet these two can't even manage that.
"reacting" isn't what that is, though. It's "let's act like a human, come on, I can do this".
Kitakita
pyrotechnics, like her evil robotic circuit board overloading at all the visual input right?
Why is everyone applying context to this picture? The point of the meme is that both candidates are horrible.

Qualified????? This lying, cheating, sleazy, douche bag is QUALIFIED to be OUR commander-in-chief??!!!! Are you serious????!
Qualification: "a quality or accomplishment that makes someone suitable for a particular job or activity." Senator, S.O.S., First Lady. 1/?
republican-led committees investigating her would have pressed charges. You don't have to like her but you can't call her unqualified 3/4
because on a purely factual and objective level you are wrong. 4/4
It's a job, and those are powerful qualifications. And please, if any of the scandals against her held any water one of the many, many 2/3

I don't have the link.. But i think it's been demonstrated that Trump never met the man he's supposed to be making fun of in this clip.
victorged
That depends on who you believe, Trump says he never met Mr. Kovaleski, Kovaleski on the other hand says they knew each other quite (1/3)
well, and that he covered him extensively during his time with the New York Daily News. A pulitzer prize winning economics journalist (2/3)
from the New York area probably had cause to meet him; whether or not Trump remembers their meetings is a different topic. (3/3 link below)

Which we don't know he actually has, since he refuses to release his tax forms.
Probably one of the stupidest things I've read to date ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

I mean, he has buildings and golf courses and shit with his name on it... that's at least being successful to some degree.
A true successful businessman shares his success with others. Trump just screws everyone over for personal gain.
Monkeys smear their feces on things too.

He says he uses bankruptcy as a business tool, Every time one of his businesses declares bankruptcy the little guy who sold him stuff loses

Most of the rest of the world (minus Russian and Chinese governments) respect and like Clinton
Hillary Clinton was a Secretary of State. She's met with more foreign dignitaries than Trump's met prostitutes. Which is saying something.
Guess why she was SoS?!? She dropped out of the race against Obama- just sayin'
Well she dropped out because she lost the primaries.
That sentence is just a mess.
Hahahah- yeah it is! just like our election and country!!
UrCompanionCube
She was abysmal as the SoS. Just because Trump is abysmal doesn't all of sudden make her a golden child of politics. She's crap too.
Jesus, it's sad that I have to upload something to reach FP just offset all the Clinton Sheeps down voting anything anti-Clinton.
Hilary Clinton left office as SoS with a 69% approval rating.

Her reaction to fireworks is irrelevant. The fact that anyone makes an opinion on a 2 sec gif of a funny face is the scary part.
it's manufactured and fake because the real Hillary is super boring and a huge nerd. She's not naturally personable like Bill.

"stupid and pointless"? Yeah... there's certainly something around here that stinks of stupid and pointless, I agree.
But yeah, what Trump did was a lot worse.
Trump's biggest problem is he can't keep his mouth shut. Hillary's is that she can't keep from lying. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

WOW seriously is that what is going on here with trump, ridiculing a motherfucking disabled reporter for having his opinions. how low...

It's a joke, the image isn't meant to be serious. LIKE OUR ELECTION HEYOOOOO
The sheer volume of these shallow-ass jokes are only adding to the ignorant culture cancer that is any media around election time.
"Ignorant culture cancer?" "Shallow-ass jokes?" Maybe YOUR ass is shallow.
Maeguard
I've seen this image on my Facebook feed twice today, and I'm absolutely positive it's shared because they thought it was insightful.
But...but...both sides are the same. It has to be true!
Where did OP say they are the same?
why would OP post this if one were good & one were bad?
There are more possibilities, like they're both bad but one is worse.

Upvoting this as hard as I can
Defending him treating someone like shit by saying it's OK because they treat everyone like shit isn't a great defence. The man is an ass.
MeridaIsMySpiritAnimal
Okay but using "I'm gonna make a retarded person gesture" as a way to make fun of people you disagree with is disgusting & insulting. Doing
it during a political debate or rally b/c you don't have a better comeback for your opponent is just pathetic. I used to work with autistic
children & making gestures like this in a derogatory way is very hurtful & cruel towards a lot of people. I don't want that representing me

yeah its called disagreement, and at least it's not "someone is not white? fuck that guy!"

Then they should have used better clips, or better yet, taken the time to support and defend an issue more complex than two funny gifs.
OP doesn't give a fuck about issues. typical narcissistic ignoramus that hates both sides equally because that's easier than knowing things
Darkspire
Stupid gets to the front page. Imgur isn't a great source for any sort of intellectualism. Might want to look elsewhere.
Really? On imgur? The point of OPs post is that they both suck. It's not complicated.
If that's his only point, he accomplishes nothing in terms of defending it.
That we can't choose politicians because we're busy judging them based on how well they do at not looking stupid ever?
No, that our system is so broken that it came up with two of the worst candidates in history.

Difference: Hillary knows who she wants to go to war with. Donald will go to war with anyone who says his toupee is crooked.

LavaAxe
Just that she supported the Iraq war (like Trump's VP did too) doesn't mean she wants to nuke everybody's shit like Trump does.
Judging by their current comments, no. Trump wants to severely amp up the war with ISIS. Hilary wants to stick with Obama's plan.
She also wants to oust Assad out of Syria.
Yah but to my knowledge she hasn't committed to using the military to do so.
IAlwaysPost140Characters
There's an honest debate in intelligence circles over whether he'd be granted security clearance. It's not automatic even for the President.
Honest question, Is this debate going on with Hillary after her rather scathing review by the FBI?
Yes. Neither of them are currently getting the traditional security briefings nominees get because of the delay in their clearances. Cluster
Interesting. I guess she won't be able to tell us about the UFOs then.
idislikecomingupwithuniqueusernames
You sure about that? Considering he wields the power of the executive order and is commander-in-chief I have a hard time believing that.
I haven't verified but I heard the legal reference given on the radio this morning. Apparently the law is pretty clear that all get vetted.
looked more closely. President cannot be denied (he has NO clearance in fact). But nominees CAN be denied... So that's sort of clear but odd
Ah, that makes more sense. I know nominees are often giving briefings even ahead of the election, so maybe that was what was meant.

You don't have to think they're equal to not vote for either of them.

Hillary is a criminal, Trump is a blatant ass. Equivalency? Not concerning the same issues, but both have MORE than their fair shares of (1)

the epitome of corrupt politics, or the epitome of a monstrous ass. (Fin.)

Technically nothing. But she sent classified emails so top secret that during the trial they couldn't even say the name of the agency 1/2

Both C. Rice and C. Powell used unsecured servers and no one gives a shit about that. Hell, Powell came out and supported Clinton!
OP probably didn't mean these 2 are poor choices cuz of these faces. OP prob meant they would be bad because of the lying, corruption, etc.

Corruption allegations follow her everywhere she goes. Not true of the other politicians you listed. Where there's smoke there's fire.
TheManWhoStaresAtTurtles
It sucks that it's a lesser of two evils situation, but that's what it is here and we need to keep that in mind this election cycle.
I just don't see that much corruption, just standard Washington politics. But even then, corruption won't destroy the planet.
That's the republicans trying to smear her so that people like you believe it. Politifact rated her the most honest candidate running.
This is true but someone corrupt but competent is better than someone corrupt & incompetent. Compare Nixon and Grant's overall presidencies.
Basher626
Based on your examples... I WANT to think you are being sarcastic... but you said that just seriously enough....
My examples? An election cycle just highlights the worst in candidates, Hilary is not evil

Why would you want to choose between two stupid? I'd probably just go with option #3.
TheHourGrowsLate
Yes, the Secretary of State vs a guy who gets into a Twitter feud with the family of a fallen war hero. Yes, such a hard choice...
Trump doesn't consider people who died or captured to be war hero's.
Arguably the most qualified candidate in the history of the presidential election versus arguably the least qualified in history. Hmmmm.
"Most qualified" = storing state secrets on a home-brew unsecured server. You sure set the bar high, friend.
I'm sorry that you got downvoted for stating an objective fact, man.

Because clearly it's Trump's fault that Khan is using his son's death to platform and confuse the issue.

She called Pat Smith a liar (not a dog) because Smith was insisting on a version of events that the Administration has repeatedly refuted.
The point is not that Trump criticized a Gold Star family. The point is that he has a problem with their identity as Muslims. You can 1/2

That's an awful comparison. You can't say that Hillary is bad because Blagojevich went to jail.
LapisScarab
If you wanna disagree with me that she's just a normal politician, fine, but I don't think that makes Trump more palatable.
ElTigreChang
Trump is a despicable human being that nobody in the establishment in either party likes, who will make things very difficult for him, and
ElTigreChang
Hilary is also a despicable human being, SLIGHTLY better at hiding it, while being strongly supported by the left's establishment.
ElTigreChang
Not to mention you should not even CONSIDER somebody who should be in jail. Lord knows what she'd do with that power.
LapisScarab
I'll take mildly corrupt over narcissistic maniac if those are the only valid choices. I voted for Bernie but he lost. Hillary will do.
LapisScarab
What exactly should she be in jail for? The emails? Sorry but that's not a moral hill I want the country to die on.
justinbaileyprime
She's been a senator and secretary of state. Unlike trump, we know what she'd do because she actually has a history in politics.

Yes. Neither of them are currently getting the traditional security briefings nominees get because of the delay in their clearances. Cluster

Interesting. I guess she won't be able to tell us about the UFOs then.

You sure about that? Considering he wields the power of the executive order and is commander-in-chief I have a hard time believing that.

I haven't verified but I heard the legal reference given on the radio this morning. Apparently the law is pretty clear that all get vetted.
IAlwaysPost140Characters
looked more closely. President cannot be denied (he has NO clearance in fact). But nominees CAN be denied... So that's sort of clear but odd

Ah, that makes more sense. I know nominees are often giving briefings even ahead of the election, so maybe that was what was meant.

The real irony is that you're projecting false equivalency. OP didn't say that. Two people can be equally stupid for two different reasons.

The biggest problem with this comment is that this post is just a joke

The biggest problem with this comment is that this thread is just a joke.

2/2 half dozen times over. And one of them has said that "we need unpredictability" in regards to that arsenal. Not the time for jokes.

Hillary is a criminal, Trump is a blatant ass. Equivalency? Not concerning the same issues, but both have MORE than their fair shares of (1)

the epitome of corrupt politics, or the epitome of a monstrous ass. (Fin.)

I'm australian and everyone I've talked to thinks that Trump is a monster and will kill us all.

Trump and his company have broken their fair share of laws.

Thanks! I figured he had, just haven't heard of it so I didn't include it. I'll go look it up!

There is also some vague ties to the Yakuza but I suspect that was more rich people doing business with rich people.

Most recent is fraud charges against his school. There were a lot of discrimination lawsuits as well for his rental properties.

Trump U is definitely a thing and is in court. What has Hillary been convicted of?
Kodimous
Technically nothing. But she sent classified emails so top secret that during the trial they couldn't even say the name of the agency 1/2
Kodimous
That those emails were about . And because of the unsecured lines she used (Trust me it's not hard to send them from her work email) 2/3
SirsMadeline
Both C. Rice and C. Powell used unsecured servers and no one gives a shit about that. Hell, Powell came out and supported Clinton!

OP probably didn't mean these 2 are poor choices cuz of these faces. OP prob meant they would be bad because of the lying, corruption, etc.
Hardcorehardy
When you make the only real point and get downvoted
ampleapplepies
But all politicians are known to lie. Its just now we have greater media coverage
Bisright
Seriously; Hilary, like McCain, gore, Kerry andRomney would be a perfectly fine president. Trump will not. They aren't on the same level.
noshin
Corruption allegations follow her everywhere she goes. Not true of the other politicians you listed. Where there's smoke there's fire.
TheManWhoStaresAtTurtles
It sucks that it's a lesser of two evils situation, but that's what it is here and we need to keep that in mind this election cycle.
Bisright
I just don't see that much corruption, just standard Washington politics. But even then, corruption won't destroy the planet.
SirsMadeline
That's the republicans trying to smear her so that people like you believe it. Politifact rated her the most honest candidate running.
TheManWhoStaresAtTurtles
This is true but someone corrupt but competent is better than someone corrupt & incompetent. Compare Nixon and Grant's overall presidencies.
Basher626
Based on your examples... I WANT to think you are being sarcastic... but you said that just seriously enough....
Bisright
My examples? An election cycle just highlights the worst in candidates, Hilary is not evil
N0ticeablyFAT
If that was the case OP would have provided examples of lying and corruption. Instead, we got this horseshit.
noshin
I think they were making a light of a very bad situation.

Anyone grouping Trump and Clinton in the same pool of stupid is a moron
iliketosaysomethingandthenjustbanana
I'm sorry but I just put them in the category "stupid". Dividing stupid in more sections seems kinda ... pointless?
Elzor
If you have to choose between two stupid, categorizing them is not pointless. And if that choice impact a whole country... well...
iliketosaysomethingandthenjustbanana
Why would you want to choose between two stupid? I'd probably just go with option #3.
TheHourGrowsLate
Yes, the Secretary of State vs a guy who gets into a Twitter feud with the family of a fallen war hero. Yes, such a hard choice...
thegroovemonkey
Trump doesn't consider people who died or captured to be war hero's.
AThugThatNeedsAHug
Arguably the most qualified candidate in the history of the presidential election versus arguably the least qualified in history. Hmmmm.
SvenWrightsen
"Most qualified" = storing state secrets on a home-brew unsecured server. You sure set the bar high, friend.
TheHourGrowsLate
I'm sorry that you got downvoted for stating an objective fact, man.

Because clearly it's Trump's fault that Khan is using his son's death to platform and confuse the issue.
myvulvaissmootherthanavealcutlet
No, but it is Trump's fault that he continues to antagonize Khan for being Muslim, and continues to whine about it like a fucking child.

She called Pat Smith a liar (not a dog) because Smith was insisting on a version of events that the Administration has repeatedly refuted.
myvulvaissmootherthanavealcutlet
The point is not that Trump criticized a Gold Star family. The point is that he has a problem with their identity as Muslims. You can 1/2

2/2 see this plainly in his insinuation that Ghazala stayed silent because she must be subservient to her husband under Islam, when that 2/3
