Donald Trump
Oh ye who continue to support this president, Donald
Trump, when who he is, what he is about, his obvious incompetence, and what he
is doing to the detriment of our country, you know not what you are doing. Our
sovereign nation is a democracy, a Democratic Republic, if you will. As a
citizen, you have, and should have, every right to participate in the governance
and determination of the direction of our nation; but, as they say, be careful
of that for which you ask. You may get it. This man is not qualified to be the
leader and chief executive officer of this our country, one of if not the
greatest empire on earth—the greatest in the history of civilization.
He is not a leader. That’s not just the opinion of
this writer. It’s a fact. Take an honest look and you will see. As divided as
we were when he entered office, we are even more divided now; and that division
is continued at an even more rapid pace. A leader inspires people, brings them
together to achieve a common goal. He motivates people to follow his leadership
because they wish—not because they are “told”. A leader is not a dictator. Our
illustrious president, Donald Trump, on the other hand, serves only those who
comprise his hard core base and then only to serve the personal interests of
himself and his family—and he does this openly. He doesn’t even try to hide it.
He certainly hasn’t served you. Just look. He’s like a bull in a china shop. Think!
The President of the United States of America, the greatest country on earth,
must be a leader, a leader of the people, all the people—not a divider. Donald
Trump is not a leader. This should be a prime factor in your thinking when you
go to vote.
He is intellectually challenged. He is not
knowledgeable as is usually expected of a person holding a position of presidential
magnitude. He graduated from one of the best business schools in the world, The
Wharton School, with a BS degree in economics (ref. Wikipedia). Yet he shows
little or no knowledge of how a business is really run or how an economy really
works. He has a short attention span and makes decisions from the seat of his
pants. We are also told he doesn’t read, showing a complete lack of
intellectual curiosity. He rejects or minimizes his daily briefings, preferring
to secure his knowledge of events from the daily news and elsewhere. I saw and
heard him say in his own words on television that he believes the Russians know
more than his own intelligence people.
Just look at how he is “running up” our national
deficit in light of the stupendous national debt we now have with no plan for
the future, spending money as if there is no tomorrow. As I indicated in a
previous post to this blog, President Obama was lowering our deficit as our
economy recovered from the economic crisis and financial collapse he inherited.
He was leading us back to normal. He had a plan. He knew what he was doing.
Donald Trump has no such plan. He has no real strategy. He is operating from
the seat of his pants. Now, our deficit and our debt once again is on the
increase with no end in sight (except for some farfetched notion in the back of
our illustrious leader’s mind that he is going to take it out of our [yours and
mine] Social Security and Medicare). Remember this when you go to the polls in
2020.
Look at his many bankruptcies—not one, not two, but
several. Look at the many lawsuits against him. Also, keep in mind that,
initially, his money was given to him. Yes, given; and not a small amount was
derived from unpaid taxes of his father (my view is that all too often, like
father, like son). It’s a matter of record—and in his father’s footsteps,
though not as successful, he carries on, one disaster after another. Donald
Trump isn’t just a poor guy with some bad luck, he’s a loser elected by us.
He’s the President of the United States. And through his leadership of this
nation he is making us losers too. The President of the United States of
America, the greatest country on earth, the greatest empire in the history of
civilization, not only must be a leader, he must be knowledgeable. This too
should be a prime factor in your thinking when you go to vote.
He is not a competent manager. He operates from the
seat of his pants with little or no strategic planning, making decisions and
responding to questions “off the cuff”, one cause of his many lies. He
dictates. He is a dictator and a bully. He cannot—he is unable to competently
delegate authority to subordinate managers and coordinate their efforts for the
overall good of the nation. The turnover of those who report to him is the
highest in the history of our nation. Presently, many of those positions are
temporary rather than permanent due to the many firings and resignations among
them. The President of the United States of America, the greatest country on
earth, the greatest empire in the history of civilization, not only must be a knowledgeable
leader, but also, he must be competent. Donald Trump is not! Remember this when
you vote.
Donald Trump is a showman, a promoter. He is an
entertainer, and he’s good at it. You don’t believe this? Just look. Take note
of how many voted for him. He constantly crisscrosses the country, conducting
political rallies. It seems he spends, more time campaigning and playing golf
than doing his job of conducting the business of the nation. To quote Lindsey
Graham (I saw and heard him say this on television news), “Donald Trump is a
race baiting, xenophobic, bigot. He doesn't represent my party; he doesn't represent the values that the men and women who wear the uniform are fighting for". I must say, however, although Lindsey Graham did say this, yesterday on
television, he challenged his own credibility when he “flip flopped” and, in
defense of Donald Trump, Jr., declared that, contrary to the Constitution of
the United States of America, the subpoenas of Donald Trump, Jr. by the House
of Representatives should be ignored.
In addition, I believe Donald Trump is a severely
mentally sick man, a mega narcissistic, a personality disorder “characterized
largely by an overinflated sense of self-importance, typically caused by
unbalanced parental valuation during childhood” (Definition right out of
Wiktionary).
In my view, Donald Trump is not qualified to be
president of our great nation—not the kind we want anyway. In thinking about this,
one should be mindful that this is not a Republican vs. Democrat issue. In my
view, he is neither. Donald Trump is a threat to our country. He is a threat to
you. He is a threat to me. He is a threat to both the Republican and the
Democratic Party. We should vote him out of office before he destroys us all, before
he destroys you, before he destroys me, before he destroys our country. Believe
me. He is not going to “make America Great Again”. It's not in him.
