Trump's Shameful Character

Donald Trump is an embarrassment to the Republican Party, but more importantly, he is an embarrassment to the United States of America. Those supporting him should know who it is they are supporting. If, after reviewing the following tweets and reading the articles they reference, you can still support Trump for President, you have a higher threshold for disgust than this writer can imagine.




We recognize that the alternative to Donald Trump this year is Hillary Clinton. Neither frankly is qualified to be President of the United States. Still, unless something remarkable happens between now and next January, one of these two will undoubtedly be sworn into office. While I can support neither of these choices, I believe that Hillary Clinton would be the least disruptive choice for the office. Trump brings so many unknowns into the view, his victory in November would likely begin a wave of uncertainty into play and disrupt the economy and foreign and domestic policy.

It would further characterize the Republican Party as the party of the rich and the party of white supremacists. As a former Republican, I cannot encourage that perception by my vote.
