Recently, America has begun to see the man behind the curtain – less ‘Trump the mogul’ and more ‘Drumpf the man.’
He continues to flip-flop on issues such as supporting the GOP candidate regardless of who it is.
He spews lies – over 70% of his statements are false.
He proudly encourages violence.
He is racist, sexist, and ableist.
His businesses seem to fail.
And yet, none of these issues represent the biggest reason why he should not become the President of the United States: lack of experience.
The fact that Trump has NO political experience whatsoever should be far more frightening. Even the most commonly cited politically inexperienced presidents – Grant, Cleveland, Eisenhower, Wilson, and GW Bush – had more political experience than Trump.
Those that didn’t have direct political experience, Grant and Eisenhower, were war heroes with extensive military backgrounds. Unless we count fighting in the ‘War on Christmas‘ or his feud with Rosie O’Donnell, the Donald hasn’t fought in any battles.
Perhaps more concerning is how Trump runs his businesses – hiring illegal immigrants over American citizens, outsourcing, withholding payment for services rendered, and more.
Are these qualities we really want in our next leader?
