What is Donald Trump Really? The answer, the truth, is that he is a rich nobody. He has accomplished nothing in his life by his own effort. He has practiced unethical methods, including campaign finance violations to steal some success in business. He has refused to pay workmen and subcontractors for their efforts, and taken advantage of the American people during the great recession.
What he is not, is knowledgeable and experienced. He has never been involved in a governmental situation at any level. Therefore, his only ability is to attack anyone who opposes him, whether they be his political opponents, or the parents of a soldier who lost his life serving his country.
Here’s what I fail to understand. Trump and I are the same age. I grew up in America as a poor man raised by a single mother who struggled to keep us sheltered, fed, and clothed. Trump was raised in a privileged environment, thanks to a nation which offers enormous opportunity for wealthy capitalists. He hates the America which nurtured us, and I love my country for what our founding fathers believed. He would repeal sections of the Constitution and I support its every word.
A truly great American, Senator Elizabeth Warren, was speaking at Ohio State University in support of Hillary Clinton. She had this to say about Trump’s “birther” claims, and his obvious suggestion that violence against Hillary Clinton should be a consideration.
“Only when his handlers tied him down and forced him did he grudgingly admit that the man was born in the United States,” Warren said. “What kind of a man does that? A man with a dark and ugly soul.”
Trump’s controversial campaign staff claimed that Trump was not inciting violence; Warren disagreed.
“Trump has repeatedly invited his supporters to commit a horrific act of violence against his opponent, against another human being,” Warren said. “What kind of a man does that? A bully. A twisted bully who can’t fight his own fights.”
The truth is that Trump is a man who creates fear, invites anger and violence, and has no concern for the future of the American people. His only concern in self-aggrandizement connected to wealth and power.
Anyone who supports Trump is severely misinformed and misguided. He would be the worst president in history, surpassing two other modern-day Republicans, Richard Nixon and George W. Bush.
If you believe someone who does not believe in my America where everyone is treated equally, and human rights are the prime issue, then do not repost this. Those of you who will, thank you.
