No, Hillary's White House would have been totally different. I expect that she would have been hauling out the china and silverware much earlier so that she wouldn't be caught like she was the last time. Also, I don't see President Trump peddling influence to enrich himself. I have every right to believe that is exactly what Hillary would have been doing. (The best indicator of future performance is past performance) Also, the complaining wouldn't have started until Hillary actually did something worth complaining of. The hate speech against President Trump began (much like Lincoln) before he even arrived in DC.

The Boston Globe report is more specific to that point, CPT Jack Durish:

Donald Trump-branded statecraft includes profit for the president - The Boston Globe
WASHINGTON — When Donald Trump meets with Chinese leader Xi Jinping at the president’s exclusive Mar-a-Lago club in Florida Thursday, the scene will be scrutinized by diplomats, foreign policy specialists, and the media for clues on how two of the world’s most important leaders get along.

Cadet 2LT Patrick Ramsey - Okay, how much history have you studied. In this respect comparing Lincoln and Trump is most fair. Lincoln had to sneak past Baltimore. The mobs were waiting there to lynch him. Trump also entered DC under a cloud and a threat.

Capt Dwayne Conyers - Where does the GAO say that Trump is enriching himself playing golf at his own courses. Learn how to read. It's a very important skill. Or if you meant to say that Trump is costing American taxpayers too much by playing golf at his own courses, learn how to write. Also a very important skill. Say what you mean and mean what you say.

Cadet 2LT Patrick Ramsey - You're really having a hard time with this, aren't you? I have provided a very specific (and historically factual) account of the treatment of Lincoln following his election as compared to the treatment that President Trump has experienced. Now, am I a "troll"? I suppose to someone who is indoctrinated to the point where such revelations hurt, I am a troll. As we used to say in Vietnam, "Sorry 'bout that" (when, in truth, I'm not sorry) Schooling only provided you with an outline of knowledge. It's your responsibility to fill in the gaps. If you chose not to, your ignorance is a self-inflicted wound.

The only part I agree with is that Hillary would have had her own scandals. But the WH would have been far more Obama-like, with far less support for the military than Trump.

CPT Jack Durish - Hillary did not like the military, in fact, she did not want to see Security details. During a Secret Service Mission we had to make sure we were never seen by her. She treated the scum on the bottom of her shoes better than she did the people protecting her. Hell, Bush while campaigning, walked over to a group of us, shook our hands and thank us.
