Donald Trump: No Principles, No Morals, No Compassion Equals No Respect, and No Trust

 

Trump will never be my president. The title of President of the United States has a definition which includes certain necessary attributes which make him or her worthy of the most powerful and important job in the world. However, never forget that he or she is nothing more than an elected public servant.

I view a president as the most qualified person available for that title on election day. He or she must have years of experience in federal and/or state government. He or she must have above average intellect, able to make the best possible decision in every situation with the assistance of his or her closest and most trusted advisers. He or she must have exceptional moral character, and be the most principled person in the world. He or she must have unbridled love for his or her country. He or she must be the ultimate patriot.

It is obvious that Trump fails to possess a single attribute I just suggested. What he does possess is extreme levels of anger, hatred, and a passion for revenge on his perceived enemies.

Trump is a man without a moral compass. His life is composed of crimes, big and small. He is a confirmed lifelong sexual predator, and his ten-year close association with Jeffrey Epstein is unforgivable. As for qualifications and experience, that part of his job application is blank. Although he was your illegitimate president for four years, he learned nothing, and accomplished nothing. His time spent in the Oval Office was minimal at best.

On at least one occasion, while holding a meeting with Speaker of the House, Paul Ryan, He walked away from his desk and into an adjacent room to watch television. His attention span is that of a toddler.

The majority of his time between 2017 and 2021 was spent chasing a little white ball through the grass and sand, flying to and from his millionaire’s playpen, Mar-a-Lago, to party with the rich and useless, and holding hate rallies in states which supported him in the 2016 election. When he was present in the White House, much of his time was spent watching FOX News, where he “learned everything he needed to know,” and tweeting from his bathroom.

How could anyone who loves his country accept the orange buffoon as their president? He is the least qualified, old, mentally unstable man in the world.

Trump is unfit to manage a lemonade stand. Every business venture in his life eventually failed. At least twice he was bailed out from a devastating bankruptcy. First by Russian oligarchs, and a second time by the Saudi Royal Family. He saved himself several times. In the New York business world he was known to bribe public officials whenever he deemed it necessary or beneficial.

I ask you: have you ever known anyone to bankrupt a casino other than Trump? I worked in Nevada casinos for 20 years; it is almost impossible.
