Founder of WikiLeaks Julian Assange compared the upcoming presidential vote to a choice between cholera or gonorrhea.

Asked whether he wants to back Clinton or Trump, Assange said: "You’re asking me, do I prefer cholera or gonorrhea?”

“Whoever—whatever political party gets into government is going to merge with the bureaucracy pretty damn fast. It will be in a position where it has some levers in its hand. And so, as a result, corporate lobbyists will move in to help control those levers. So it doesn’t make much difference in the end. What does make a difference is political accountability, a general deterrence set to stop political organizations behaving in a corrupt manner,” he said in an interview with Democracy Now.
