SuaveSocialist said: So you are thinking about voting for Trump. You just might be undecided. Maybe you’ve already decided. Perhaps during the Primaries you already have. Well, there is only one way to say this (bluntly): there’s just no excuse. A vote for Trump is simply indefensible. It just cannot be done—not when you have all the facts, or approach the situation rationally, or judge Trump by whatever standards you judge the other candidate(s)--and I’ve brought proof. Now, there may be some of you who feel triggered by this. Reality often exists outside Safe Zones. You may need a stiff drink to wash away the pain, so take a moment to pour yourself one if you like. Put on some soothing music. Sit down. Take a deep breath. The truth won’t kill you, but sometimes it hurts really, really, really bad. The following link is a Master Post that chronicles Trump’s ever-growing list of reasons why he should not be allowed near anything or anyone—let alone a position of power or authority. It is a lengthy read, crammed with sources cited through links and has many, many categories. It ranges from warning signs of Fascist leanings, his history of racism, sexism, crime and a whole lot more. Take your time. You may need another glass. Or even the entire bottle because it will take a while. http://quantum-displacement.tumblr.com/post/146015554444/anti-trump-masterpost In addition, as a politician he actually has the worst record of honesty and accuracy in his claims. Lyin’ Ted has a better record from non-partisan fact-checking: http://www.politifact.com/personalities/donald-trump/ Don’t believe me? Here’s Ted’s: http://www.politifact.com/personalities/ted-cruz/ Even Hillary Clinton, with her hard-earned and well-deserved reputation for being untrustworthy is basically Honest Abe in comparison http://www.politifact.com/personalities/hillary-clinton/. But Trump’s troubles aren’t even over. He’s now a contender for the 2016 Bill Cosby Award---and the other nominee (Roger Ailes http://www.thewrap.com/roger-ailes-sexual-harassment-allegations-from-over-20-women-pour-in-gretchen-carlsons-lawyers-say/ ) is Trump’s campaign advisor! This December, Trump will face a courtroom battle against a 13 year-old girl he may have raped https://www.theguardian.com/us-news/2016/oct/12/donald-trump-jeffrey-epstein-alleged-rape-lawsuit, more women keep coming forward with sexual assault allegations http://www.ctvnews.ca/world/new-allegations-of-sexual-assault-emerge-against-trump-1.3112215 and his situation keeps getting uglier https://www.thestar.com/news/world/2016/10/13/former-toronto-star-journalist-accuses-donald-trump-of-sexual-assault.html . Now you know it as I know it. It may hurt. You may experience grief, and the first stage of grief is denial. You may try to put on a tinfoil hat and/or conjure up some rationalization out of an irrational aether to justify voting for him, but it won't work. It'll rely too heavily on False Equivalence Fallcies, Strawmen, Red Herrings and attempts to Move the Goalposts. A vote for Trump is indefensible. |
Trump is like pissing in the toilet your bound to hit a piece of shit.
