### Ham sandwich for president

Putting Clinton in office is like giving a gun to a police officer:
potentially dangerous & problematic in an array of well-understood ways, and
best seen as a continuation and extension of a questionable standard.

Putting Trump in office is like giving a gun to a dementia patient: dangerous
and unpredictable.

Putting Johnson or Stein in office is like giving a gun to a raccoon: a
raccoon has no well-defined concept of what a gun is or does, and doesn’t have
any thumbs, and so the level of danger is low but non-zero.

Putting Vermin Supreme in office is like giving a gun to a ham sandwich.
