Alrighty, first off, let's address the idea that Bernie supporters are not willing to vote Hillary. That's actually a false claim, an idea given off by the vocal minority in the Sanders campaign. Washington Post covered a Pew Research poll (https://www.washingtonpost.com/news...nvention-is-chaotic-the-democratic-base-isnt/) about this. Pew found 90% would vote Clinton in the election. Bloomberg Politics did another poll (http://www.bloomberg.com/politics/a...f-of-sanders-supporters-won-t-support-clinton) which resulted in 55% saying they'd support Clinton in the general. The 55% came before Sanders endorsed Clinton. So the notion that "most" of Bernie supporters not being willing to support Hillary is false.
Secondly, no, I'm not a Hillary supporter. I'm actually a hardcore Bernie supporter who isn't voting for Hillary because I live in a state that votes Democrat every election. It's my privilege (check it) to be able to vote for whomever I want.
I personally do not like Hillary Clinton, but I am hoping she wins the presidency. Trump is an incompetent businessman who has somehow managed to bankrupt a casino. Casinos are the one business where people literally throw their money at you for no guarantee of a return. How someone bankrupts THREE CASINOS is beyond me.
He ran a business school, Trump University. He claimed in advertisements that he handpicked instructors, then testified in a deposition that he did no such thing. He is currently being sued in two separate cases. He claims there was a 98% satisfaction rating from students, however the surveys were not anonymous and in the middle of the course.
And let's just go to the things Trump has said.
Making Fun of a Man With Cerebral Palsy
He cheated on his wife
Trump supporters like to mock Hillary for staying with Bill when he cheated. Yet they conveniently forget Trump, when married to his first wife Ivana, had an affair with his future-second-wife, Marla Maples.
He's a "birther"
yes that's right, he's one of those idiots who think Obama wasn't born in the United States. Why do the birthers think Obama wasn't born in this country and in fact born in Africa? Hm. I wonder why.
The Idiotic Mexican Wall
For some reason, Trump thinks he'll build a wall on the Mexican border and make them pay for it. He makes no mention of how he'll make them pay for it, how we'll pay to maintain it, and how exactly it's going to be effective, especially when throughout most of Obama's presidency, the amount of Mexicans leaving the country actually was larger than the amount of Mexicans coming in (http://www.pewhispanic.org/2015/11/19/more-mexicans-leaving-than-coming-to-the-u-s/). He is also under the idiotic impression that the Mexican government is sending "drugs...crime...rapists" to the country, despite having no proof to the contrary, and ignoring the fact that drugs and crime are directly related to poverty and the poor conditions some immigrants live in.
He is sexist towards women who critique him
Rosie O'Donnell does not like Trump, and has made this very clear. He said he'd fire that "fat ugly face" instead of dealing with critique professionally and debating what she said. "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."
He referred to Ariana Huffington as "unattractive, both inside and out. I fully understand why her former husband left her for a man ? he made a good decision."
"You know, it really doesn?t matter what the media write as long as you?ve got a young, and beautiful, piece of ass."
"The only card [Hillary Clinton] has is the woman's card. She's got nothing else to offer and frankly, if Hillary Clinton were a man, I don't think she'd get 5 percent of the vote. The only thing she's got going is the woman's card, and the beautiful thing is, women don't like her."
Hillary's politics are similar to Bill's. Trump apparently does not understand this. Bill was President.
He thinks good people don't go into government
"One of the key problems today is that politics is such a disgrace. Good people don't go into government."
He wants to **** his daughter
Trump has said if Ivanka wasn't his daughter, he might be dating her. That's ****ing gross.
He thinks the election is a dick-measuring contest
"My fingers are long and beautiful, as, it has well been documented, are various other parts of my body."
"Look at those hands, are they small hands? And, [Republican rival Marco Rubio] referred to my hands: 'If they're small, something else must be small.' I guarantee you there's no problem. I guarantee."
He has had no history in politics
The man has never held elected office. How exactly does he intend on running the country with no experience?
Donald Trump wants Russia to hack the DNC
Literally a treasonous statement, and then of course, he backtracks by calling it "sarcasm". Of course.
He referred to as Native American Elizabeth Warren as Pochaontas
No comment needed.
Honestly I could go on. I could talk about how he made period comments about Megyn Kelly, how he wants to "close that Internet up in some ways", thought of Hillary Clinton as a friend, said that "I know Hillary and I think she?d make a great president or vice-president." said "who knows?" when prompted if he would start a war with China, threatened riots if he lost the Republican nomination, said he could "shoot somebody and wouldn't lose votes", talked **** about McCain's war record, said he wants people with "yarmulkes" to count his money instead of "blacks"...
I could go on, but it would be obnoxious to point out more racist, sexist, ableist comments from the man who is applying for the job that requires professionalism, yet he oozes none of it.
