Trump and his staff, his supporters have desperately attempted to claim that Hillary Clinton has both physical and health problems. The truth is that Donald Trump is likely 50 pounds overweight, and his rhetoric proves that he is mentally unstable.
Trump continues to believe that President Obama did not graduate from the prestigious Columbia University. “Our current president came out of nowhere. Came out of nowhere,” Trump said in 2011 at the annual Conservative Political Action Conference, according to a transcript by PolitiFact. “In fact, I’ll go a step further: The people that went to school with him, they never saw him, they don’t know who he is. It’s crazy.”
Trump attempted to defend his refusal to release his tax returns in the most fallacious claim in his campaign.
“Well, maybe because of the fact that I’m a strong Christian, and I feel strongly about it and maybe there’s a bias,” he said during a CNN interview.
“I can tell you one thing: I am audited when I shouldn’t be audited,” Trump said later. “I tell my people: Why is it that every single year, I’m audited, whereas other people that are very rich, people are never audited — and they don’t even know what I’m talking about when I talk about audits.”
Trump is not a Christian. His history proves that he hates Christian beliefs and has no interest in religion.
Trump discussed the death of the most extreme member of the Supreme Court who denounced every effort for working class Americans in favor of special interests supported by the Republican Party.
“And it’s a horrible topic. But they say they found a pillow on his face, which is a pretty unusual place to find a pillow. I can’t tell you what — I can’t give you an answer. You know, usually I like to give you answers,” Trump told a conservative radio host, Michael Savage. “But I literally just heard it a little while ago. It’s just starting to come out now.”
Trump used any tactic during the primary season to insure his nomination. I despise Ted Cruz, but Trump’s assertion about his father was unconscionable. Trump suggested that the father of GOP primaries rival Sen. Ted Cruz had been involved with President John F. Kennedy’s assassin, Lee Harvey Oswald.
Early in his campaign, Trump denounced the effectiveness of vaccinations for our nation’s children without any knowledge of medical practice.
“The child, the beautiful child, went to have the vaccine and came back and a week later got a tremendous fever. Got very, very sick. Now is autistic,” Trump said. “I’m in favor of vaccines. Do them over a longer period of time. Same amount, just in little sections.”
Trump claimed that when the World Trade Center towers were destroyed on September 11, 2001, he witnessed films of celebration by American Muslims. This was later proven to be an egregious lie.
“There were people that were cheering on the other side of New Jersey, where you have large Arab populations. They were cheering as the World Trade Center came down,” Trump said on ABC News in November, one day after he made similar claims at a campaign event. “I know it might be not politically correct for you to talk about it, but there were people cheering as that building came down — as those buildings came down. And that tells you something. It was well covered at the time, George.
In March, a disruption at a Trump rally allowed Trump to claim that it was an attempt by a Muslim to discredit his Islamophobia. It was proven to be false, but Trump continued his attack.
Chuck Todd on NBC’s Meet the Press, Trump insisted: “”No, no, no, no. He was, if you look on the Internet, if you look at clip,” Trump said.”
Trump claims that global warming, or climate change caused by man is a hoax, created by the Chinese. In a tweet, Trump claimed: “The concept of global warming was created by and for the Chinese in order to make U.S. manufacturing non-competitive.”
Although we now are fully aware that Trump has paid off politicians with numerous illegal campaign contributions, and strong-armed others to allow illicit business activities, he is attempting to be a spin doctor.
“The attorney general of New York meets with Barack Obama in Syracuse,” Trump said, according to a transcript by the Huffington Post. “The following day he sues me. What they don’t say is, I believe, $15,000 or a lot of money was paid to the attorney general by the law firm in California that is suing me.”
Trump is nothing but a small time criminal. His history proves that he has used his money and influence to protect himself and his business interests to secure his own fame and fortune.
The question is; will the American people allow a criminal to be the 45th president of the United States. Does the electorate have such little value of our nation’s history to debase the intentions of our founding fathers? Can our nations survive the presidency of a criminal and a man who despises the nation created by our founding fathers?
It’s your decision. If you believe, as I do, that our nation is worth saving, please repost this article. Thank you.
