Trump’s negatives’ list is ‘infinite’

For over 400 years, white men have governed this land. Millions will accept anything to keep it that way. That’s clear by the way President Obama has been treated and the way they accept anything from Donald Trump to keep Hillary Clinton from becoming president.

Trump, to them, can do no wrong. He can’t name the NATO countries but wants to lead the free world. He thinks paying no taxes makes him smart. He attacks outsourcing jobs, yet that’s what he does. He supports nuclear proliferation and encourages countries to use them. He praises Vladimir Putin, the most dangerous man in the world. He ridicules Sen. John McCain, a great war hero, for getting captured and spending years in captivity, yet he never served.

Trump publicly mocked a handicapped reporter and demeans women in a vulgar way. His list of negatives is infinite. His behavior is cruel, profane, sadistic and void of empathy. Many responsible Republicans believe he is dangerous and disgraceful. Fifty former GOP national security officials say “he would be the most reckless president in American history.” I agree with them. God help us if he is elected.
