Why Donald Trump Should Not Become President

Democrats have shown repeatedly that Donald Trump has great disdain for Americans of many kinds. He openly shown dislike or disdain for people of color, women, immigrants, and pretty much anyone but his own family. He has curiously had his clothing line made overseas and married an immigrant, so it is most confusing. We have shown clearly that he doesn't have the self-control we need in a leader. He has tried repeatedly to follow a script to give better speeches and he fails repeatedly. He is easily provoked by Tweets and seems to have a hair-trigger opinion on everything and everyone. He has regularly picked people he calls "the best" and yet they repeatedly lie or have been found to be doing business with Russians. It might even be possible that Trump himself is in debt to Russians or Chinese or others, but he refuses to release his tax records to let us see. So, aside from being divisive he is personally not up to the important job of national leader.

I can argue many of his policies are bad for America, but just as importantly they have been declared by experts (military or foreign policy) to be infeasible. He would separate America from its allies and make new enemies. He can't be trusted to keep us safe. His apparent fascination with nuclear weapons is just startling and horrifying. Then there is the question of whether he has policies he truly would execute. He has changed his stand on several policies overnight. It's really not clear what he stands for, except perhaps for the fantasmagorical Wall to keep out the invaders from the South.

His intelligence, his character, his truthfulness, his worldliness, his sincerity, are all in doubt. We have never elected such a person to be president and we shouldn't start now.
