I know they have both helped and hurt a great number of people.

I don't see how we can know who the better human being is unless you have a relationship with both.

Both have poor net favorability. Who knows who the better human being is? If you ask Americans to vote for who you trust more out of those two, we are in trouble. That to me speaks to who a human being is.

Better candidate, different story.
