In your mind, feature Donald Trump as President of these United States. Like what you see? In my view, electing Trump as president would be a disaster. I cannot envision a president who would speak on important issues before he thinks then justifies his foolishness with telling us how wonderful he is. If he wins, how many world leaders will he offend? Consider his unsubstantiated comments about illegal Mexican immigrants:
“When Mexico sends its people, they’re not sending the best. They’re not sending you, they’re sending people that have lots of problems and they’re bringing those problems with us. They’re bringing drugs. They’re bringing crime. They’re rapists. … And some, I assume, are good people.”
I wonder what the leaders of Mexico and China think about being called “stupid”?
Is he the “family man” he has boasted about? Well, he has been married three times. He explains that by admitting that his two failed marriages were because he loves his business so much. Wow! some advocate for traditional marriage!
No doubt he is successful financially but how many voters know about the bankruptcies he has been in involved in? He boasts about never being personally bankrupt but admits to “using the laws of this country” to shut out creditors to his own advantage. We don’t need a president to further mess up our economy. And, since when has economic prowess become a prerequisite for presidents?
“The Donald” never admits being mistaken. In his eyes he seems unable to do wrong. He is always right. He can’t even admit his sins (by the way, we all sin). In an interview with moderator Frank Luntz at the Family Leadership Summit in Ames, Iowa, Luntz asked Trump whether he has ever asked God for forgiveness for his actions. Hear his amazing answer, “I am not sure I have. I just go on and try to do a better job from there. I don’t think so,” he said. “I think if I do something wrong, I think, I just try and make it right. I don’t bring God into that picture. I don’t.” That pretty well settles it for me. I can’t speak for you but I want a president who has a better understanding of the meaning of the gospel and his relationship to our Creator.
His morals are betrayed by his speech. “You know, it really doesn’t matter what the media write as long as you’ve got a young and beautiful piece of axx.”
Add to that his disrespectful way of viewing women he doesn’t like. “If I were running ‘The View,’ I’d fire Rosie [O’Donnell]. I mean, I’d look her right in that fat, ugly face of hers, I’d say, ‘Rosie, you’re fired.’” “Rosie O’Donnell’s disgusting both inside and out. You take a look at her, she’s a slob. She talks like a truck driver, she doesn’t have her facts, she’ll say anything that comes to her mind.” Oops! Did he really say that last part?
Concerning Arianna Huff he tweets: “@ariannahuff is unattractive both inside and out. I fully understand why her former husband left her for a man- he made a good decision.”
Concerning Bette Midler he tweets: “While @BetteMidler is an extremely unattractive woman, I refuse to say that because I always insist on being politically correct.” Really?
“All the women on The Apprentice flirted with me — consciously or unconsciously. That’s to be expected.”
“I think the only difference between me and the other candidates is that I’m more honest and my women are more beautiful.”
So, if blatant, sexist disrespect for women is what you want, vote Trump.
“The beauty of me is that I’m very rich .“ “Braggart” is not a necessary quality for presidential hopefuls. Yes, many are adept at bragging. But, they need to simply point us to their accomplishments. Narcissism, however, has no place in anybody’s resume. Notice his statement when he announced his candidacy.
“I will build a great wall — and nobody builds walls better than me, believe me —and I’ll build them very inexpensively. I will build a great, great wall on our southern border, and I will make Mexico pay for that wall. Mark my words.” “The wall will go up and Mexico will start behaving.”
And in a classic case of the pot calling the kettle black: ‘One of the key problems today is that politics is such a disgrace. Good people don’t go into government.” Is that so Donald?
He doesn’t stop there unloading on politicians: “If you can’t get rich dealing with politicians, there’s something wrong with you.” He also tweeted: “I laugh when I see Marco Rubio and Jeb Bush pretending to “love” each other, with each talking of their great friendship. Typical phony pols.”
“Free trade is terrible. Free trade can be wonderful if you have smart people. But we have stupid people [in office].”
Here he takes a shot at Jews: “The only kind of people I want counting my money are little short guys that wear yamakas (sic) every day.”
Concerning John McCain he blurts: “He’s not a war hero. He’s a war hero because he was captured. I like people that weren’t captured, OK, I hate to tell you.”
As one writer put it: “While McCain was a POW in Vietnam, Trump was living the lavish lifestyle of dining and clubbing with beautiful women. To quote the Washington Post: “As Trump was preparing to take Manhattan, McCain was trying to relearn how to walk.”

If you want to know what intelligent persons have to say look at what Carly Fiorina had to say in the first debate go to CNN POLITICS.
Long ago, Jesus set the standard by which we determine the character of a person. He said: “For each tree is known by its own fruit. For men do not gather figs from thorns, nor do they pick grapes from a briar bush. 45 The good man out of the good [a]treasure of his heart brings forth what is good; and the evil man out of the evil treasure brings forth what is evil; for his mouth speaks from [b]that which fills his heart.” (Luke 6:44-46) See also Matthew 12:34
We can know about the heart of Mr. Trump by listening to his words.
