Trump probably bought off the Florida Attorney General. But the evidence for that is no greater than that Clinton was bought off on multiple occasions. And it's worse with her, because she was the government official being bought off.
It's similar with Clinton's e-mails versus Trump's tax returns: she has a legal requirement to release her e-mail and calendar and so on, as these are public records. He has no obligation to release his tax returns.
There's no equivalency here: on these matters, she is far worse than he is.
That said, it's fair to look at Trump's history as an indicator for how he'd be as President, and it's part of why I won't vote for either one of them. Neither will be honest, neither will be transparent, both will be corrupt. But let's not pretend that what Clinton's done is not worse than what Trump's done, because she's the one who was a government official repeatedly violating the public trust, and he wasn't.

"It is the common fate of the indolent to see their rights become a prey to the active. The condition upon which God hath given liberty to man is eternal vigilance; which condition if he break, servitude is at once the consequence of his crime and the punishment of his guilt."
