Donald James Trump: Soap Opera Superstar

Trumpenstein

Because the media will not accurately describe Donald Trump, I will offer you the truth. The failed businessman is nothing more than a soap opera star who has no substance and no principles or ideas of his own.

The first thing a soap opera star desires is attention. He or she is intent upon receiving notoriety and adoration from fans. They know that they lack substance, but that is unimportant to their ultimate goal; to be famous at all cost. They are playing a role; portraying an alternate personality, and expect the viewing audience to accept them for their performance. They recite lines but fail to understand what they are offering to the general public.

Soap opera stars create a fan base by appealing to the emotions of viewers. They are not required to have intelligence, or even have mastery of the English language. Their future will be decided by those who need something in their lives; something which nothing or no one else can offer. They are sad; they are angry; and they need to belong.

Although their personal lives are frequently filled with luxury and abundance, on camera they must appeal to everyday people. These individuals in turn live vicariously through their demagogues.

I give you Donald James Trump.

Trump cannot be described as a legitimate candidate for President of the United States. During the first George W. Bush campaign I listened to comments such as; “he’s one of us,” or “he’s a regular guy.” America doesn’t need a friend; a drinking buddy; it needs a leader to move our nation forward and secure equality and freedom for all of our nation’s people.

Trump is nothing more than a bad actor. He has no qualifications which would allow him to be the leader of our nation and the free world. He denounces the Constitution as he supports his fans. He caters to their debased ideas and lack of principle and dedication to the law of the land. He is a performer, and a bad one at his best effort.

Trump’s soap opera reveals poor acting, but is also dangerous to the United States and the world. He is a buffoon who exemplifies the worst of America. Our president must offer the best of what could become a great nation as it was founded 240 years ago.

Whether you call yourself a Democrat, a Republican, or an Independent, you must not vote for a charlatan who will harm our nation and possibly the world.
