Doesn't the Clinton Foundation have a bunch of controversy surrounding it as well?

Only in their fundraising. Doing speeches for wall street, a king, and big businesses. But its actually a charity and I think 90 percent of whatvit takes in goes to its projects.

Meanwhile trump uses his to avoid taxes and hire people to paint giant paintings of himself.

But also it is funny because a big point the trump campaign has been hitting out on the clintons is that they took money from the king of morocco when trumps have been taking money from china. Which kind of cements the worries people have about his business connections.

The scandal is that the foundation is seen as a channel for donors to purchase favours from Hillary. Though yeah, not sure if there's any evidence of that.

They aren't clean, but they donate wayyyyy more percentage of the donations to charity than the Trump foundation does.

By the way, this is about Trump's campaign finances, not his charity.
Completely different things

This is how I basically see this election: a deeply flawed and somewhat stale candidate (Clinton) who I think will do an average job as president vs an utter disgrace and a buffoon (Trump) with a frightening authoritarian streak; someone who's rhetoric has attacked the very fundamentals of what America stands for.

Trumpkins don't care, and at this point, I don't think people who are still undecided would care either.

I had to fight one about this. It's unreal.

That's exactly my point. They'll talk about that endlessly, but now that Trump does the same thing suddenly there is silence about "the man that can't be bought," apparently except by foreign nationals. As far as I know though, could be wrong, but those questionable donations were to the charity that she doesn't really have much to do with.
