What turned me off about Trump was that he had no concept of policy. He could not rationally or coherently produce any policy stand. His record for the past 50 years indicated someone who was not competent to run a business, much less a country.
He doesn't understand policy, or how it works, because so far his experience is having Executives make all the decisions, and then taking credit for them while the money pour into his offshore accounts. Every single major business decision he's made, and personally taken a Leadership role in, failed like an Atlantic City Casino.
What gets me isn't Trump (The man is a slug, a Hutt. There's nothing to like about him as far as I'm concerned) It's the people who somehow overlook everything vile, and disgusting about him. Every contradiction, it's convenient to think about his success with women, when he bought 2 wives from eastern Europe, then completely forget about them when he's talking about getting tough on Immigrants.
Just like it's convenient to overlook the fact that America is a melting pot of Immigrants. It always was, "Give us your tired, your poor, your huddled masses yearning to breathe free," are the words written for the French lady standing as a Beacon over New York Harbor, and Ellis Island. He's standing up there, pounding the podium, barking like a madman with a combover, and talking about making America more like Germany, Russia, and Communist China.
That's what gets me. His plan? His policies, and his rhetoric sound familiar, and it's straight out of Chairman Mao's little red book. If anyone ever bothered to read Mao's little red book. Seize the means of production, by rallying the working class, with the promise of jobs, In COAL. Make America Great Again, by bringing back child labor in coal mines. Lowering the cost of Labor, and getting rid of undesirables by deportation, closed borders, Tiannamen Square style suppression of protests, and radical socialists marching down the streets in jack boots with Nazi flags.
I'm sorry, but if you can see "Both sides" of an argument between Americans, and Nazis, you might be a White Supremacist.
As far as his policies? "Take the guns, then go to court." You know who said that? Here's a hint: It wasn't Clinton, Obama, Saunders, or Clinton. It was Goldfinger, to a Senate committe, conviened on the subject of Gun Control.
So, that's my problem: That anyone could trust him, ever. Much less leading the free world into the 2nd World.
