There is considerable amounts of reasons Donald Trump maybe should not become president. To counteract that I say there are reasons why he should become president. The main reason is and number one reason to me is that Hillary Clinton would be a far worse president than Donald Trump. First of all she is a criminal and should punished for the crimes she has committed, she should not even be considered as a candidate. Which if that would the case I may not be writing what I am now. I don't agree with everything that Donald Trump represents, but I do believe he would be more invested in the American people than Hillary Clinton would be. I don't have anything against helping others, but right now the government is fueling tons and tons of money into other countries, this is our American tax dollars that we work hard for. Veterans alone are dying for this country and being promised to be taking care of when they come back with injuries from war and a lot times they care is below substandard. How is that? That's like a mother not feeding her own kids, but spends money feeding her boyfriend's kids. That doesn't make sense. We need someone that is going to take pride in America, strengthen this country, and unite us together. Anyone that lies the way Hillary Clinton does doesn't even take pride in herself, so she can not take pride in her country. Her years in office may give her more experience, but if that experience was bad experience that still makes her unqualified in my opinion. I'm sure one could argue back and forth with me on this issue, but I stand in my opinion that given our choices Donald Trump should win the presidency.
Obviously the post was published 4 days before the election in support of Donald Trump and I would like to congratulate Angel for the victory of her presidential candidate, however I respectfully disagree with her arguments for the following reasons:
ReplyDelete• A healthy and constructive methodology in any election should be choosing the best and most qualified candidates for the job not voting for someone because we dislike his/her opponent.
• The statement: “she is a criminal and should punished for the crimes she has committed” seems to be inaccurate. Hillary Clinton had only been under investigation and never been charged with any crime. We cannot call a person criminal unless he/she has been formally charged by the prosecutor and found guilty by the court of law. As Democrats are not supposed to call Donald Trump a criminal while he is not convicted in “Trump University Fraud Case”, yet.
• Angle has a valid point about minimizing America’s involvement in the conflicts around the world and spending the resources in our own country, however we need to remember: 1- the effects of globalization is a reality of modern world and we are part of it, 2- it was a republican president who started two massively expensive wars. It was a Democrat president who brought most of our veterans back home.
• Lying (to some extend) has become part of politics, we like it or not. So, in response to the statement in the post: “Anyone that lies the way Hillary Clinton does doesn't even take pride in herself, so she can not take pride in her country”, I refer Angel to “POLITIFACT” or many other fact checking institutions who have compared two candidates during their campaign and debates. A diagram from “Politifact” (which can be find on my blog) shows a comparison between president-elect Trump and secretory Clinton:
