I think we can all agree that Trump is not the ideal candidate, but Hillary is SO MUCH WORSE, even to the point of treason. It's the same old story, we have to choose between the lesser of 2 evils. I think Kennedy and Reagan were the last candidates people actually voted FOR. Otherwise, we had to vote AGAINST the one we disliked most.
Insulting a POW and having a potential first lady that has nudes on the internet and barely speaks English -- that's not an ideal candidate. In my opinion, Trump is FAR worse than "not an ideal candidate." He is absolutely on par with HRC. But I say ignore the ridiculous things about Trump.
Just look at his record. Look deep into is just as everyone has with HRC.
Look at the THOUSANDS of lawsuits this man has on-going. Where there is smoke there is fire. How can anyone NOT be concerned by a man with so many lawsuits?
Look at the his history of the lawsuits brought against him. Cases where he has stiffed contractors for MILLIONS of dollars owed for work done. Look at what he did when his casinos started tanking -- he fired a bunch of executives and then reneged on their severances. Look at other cases like when he bought expensive jewelry at Bulgari on Manhattan’s Fifth Avenue, then colluded with the store to have empty boxes supposedly containing his purchase shipped out of state so he could dodge New York sales tax -- it's in court records!
Look at his use of the Trump Foundation, a supposed charity, to pay for his legal fees for all those lawsuits. Look at his admission of pay to play politics and his use of it. Look at his sudden hike in rent in his own tower for his own campaign HQ once he was no longer paying for his campaign out of his own pocket and the RNC was footing the bill. Look at the bankruptcies. Look at the reason he hasn't paid taxes in almost 20 years -- he lost a billion dollars in one year but lost even more throughout the 80s and 90s.
Remember the USFL? Ever wondered what happened to it? Look it up, and you'll see a familiar name who was a big part to it's demise.
Look at his history of casinos in Atlantic City and their eventual failures.
Look up this quote and see who said it and the context of it: “People will spend a tremendous amount of money in casinos, money that they would normally spend on buying a refrigerator or a new car. Local businesses will suffer because they’ll lose dollars to the casino.”
Look up Marvin Roffman - a casino analyst who in 1990 was asked by the Wall Street Journal to give his analysis on Trump's soon to open Taj. Roffman predicted the casino wouldn't make it -- the market just wasn't there. Trump got pissed, got the man fired, publically berated him -- sound like familiar behavior? And guess what? Roffman's prediction was spot on. The Taj failed within a month of when Roffman predicted it would. Roffman ended up winning a lawsuit against Trump for the damage he caused to his career.
Look at the condition of Trump's businesses by the time he started the apprentice in the early 2000s. So many investors had taken so many losses that he couldn't get financing in the states -- he had to go to the Caymen Islands branch of the UBS.
Look at what happened to Trump Tower Tampa, Trump Hollywood, Trump International Hotel, Tower Fort Lauderdale, Trump Ocean Resort Baja Mexico. All failures and Trump blamed the contractors on all of them. Has this man ever admitted to making a mistake? Investors lost millions of dollars but he made money in licensing fees.
If this was a list of HRC's transgressions(and she's got a long list) I know people would read this, but since it's facts on Trump, not Hillary no one is going read them.
If this was just a matter of someone who speaks their mind and offends people -- it would be one thing -- but this man is FAR beyond "not ideal" in my opinion.
At the end of the day there's nothing anyone can do now. He's the candidate and he's not Hillary. So people will vote for him. But to think he's better than Clinton. I respectfully disagree.
Why do I keep harping on this? Because there was ONE way to ensure HRC doesn't get in the White House. And that way depended on the GOP to have their crap together and put up a viable candidate. The only thing he has going for him is he isn't HRC. And that's just not going to be enough to win IMO. It has nothing to do with rigging. It has everything to do with reality.
