Default ignition switch or starter

welp my car for the past week has had me guessing on when its gonna work and when its not gonna work. heres the symptoms:

hop in the car push the clutch down turn the key to the on position and click thats it. i can do that numerous times before the car even cranks. the battery is fine. sometimes it will start to crank but then putter out and stop cranking. does this sound like the starter or ign switch to yall? i cleaned the grounds on the starter thinking maybe that would help but nothing.
