Donald Trump: Disgrace To The United States
Donald Trump is a disgrace to the USA

“When you’re a star, they let you do it. You can do anything. Grab them by the…”Do I need to go on? Unbelievably this is the voice of the soon to be world’s most powerful man. Probably the most problematic man around, he’s a misogynist, racist, sexist, narcissist, any ist you can think of, he ticks the box. Clown, divisive, fraud, liar, bigot: these are some of the more polite terms to be used to describe Donald Trump, current president elect, soon to be leader of the free world. 62,979,879 Americans voted for Donald Trump believing he would make America hate – sorry – great again. These people arrogantly believe this but for the rest of civilisation it is apparent that Trump will be an unmitigated disaster

Barack Obama, as the first black president, inspired millions of young people of minorities and showed the world that anyone can achieve when they put their mind to it. President Trump however is not a positive role model, his whole career is based on hateful rhetoric; between his racist remarks and his boasting about sexually assaulting women, there’s really not much room left for him to be the good guy. Even by Donald Trump’s standards I was astonished at his unscrupulous attack against the parents of a Muslim U.S. Army officer who died during service in the Iraq War. At the Democratic National Convention on July 28 the father of the Army Captain who died in aid of the US, Humayun Khan, stood with his grieving wife and conveyed his thoughts on Trump’s bigoted rhetoric and disregard for civil liberties. Trump’s reply was ignorant and racist: “If you look at his wife, she was standing there. She had nothing to say. She probably, maybe she wasn’t allowed to have anything to say. You tell me.” He did not even thank the family for their service, which, as the future president shows a complete lack of respect for the lives of Muslims and black people which account for 3.3 million Americans. Surely the leader of a country founded by immigrants should represent all of the citizens of their country but obviously …show more content…
Donald Trump is a 69 year old business man who when debating can only respond by heckling “wrong!” at his opponent or by reading off a script written by a team of qualified advisors. The soon to be president also often takes to twitter regularly to have a tantrum and here the true extent of his immaturity is revealed. One of his most outrageous and inappropriate twitter outbursts was posted January 2016 after the terrorist attacks in Paris. He tweeted “isn’t it interesting that the tragedy in Paris took place in one of the toughest gun control countries in the world?” This really shows the level of decency Trump has, while the rest of the world offered condolences and prayed for the dead Donald trump took to social media to boast about why he thinks everyone should have access to a gun. The French ambassador replied, “This message is repugnant in its lack of any human decency. Vulture”. Coming from the future president of the US this comment was malicious and inhumane. No person with a brain cell would vote for a man so indecent. However, some people in USA actually support Trump’s crude use of language as they believe he is just being honest (and don’t get me wrong an honest politician would be a fresh breath of air) but they actually applaud his rudeness and

    In Charles Blow’s “Failing All Tests of the Presidency” (2017) he asserts his opinion that Trump is not acting as a true president and he is merely holding a place for an actual president to arrive and replace him. Blow communicates this by saying “Donald Trump is a man of flawed character and a moral cavity,” and “His interests center on the self; country be damned.” He exaggerates all of Trump’s flaws without regard to the truth that, maybe he has done something good while in office. He does this in attempts to force his hatred of Donald Trump onto others that might already not support him. Charles Blow employs his hatred of Trump and writes very controversial articles to everyone who is indifferent or not in support of Donald Trump.…

    If there can be any objection to the administration, it can be the general disdain it has for reality. The President of the United States of America has employed the highest offense possible; he attempts to promote contradictory ideas at the same time and hold that they complement each other. Trump’s most important example should be his tone on the campaign trail. Trump’s campaign was run on two violently opposing ideas: that America is a perfect nation, that America is God’s nation, that America is the savior and protector of the world, America has the perfect culture that all nations should adopt, and our soldiers are the strongest, our products are the best, our land is the most beautiful, and that all nations should be subservient to American…

    "He plays on fear — exploiting base instincts of xenophobia, racism and misogyny — to bring out the worst in us, rather than the best. His serial shifts on fundamental issues reveal an astounding absence of preparedness. And his improvisational insults and midnight tweets exhibit a dangerous lack of judgment and impulse control."…

    He was serious, respectful, gracious, and was keenly aware that this moment, his moment, was the moment of all Americans whether they were black or white, privileged or impoverished. Obama made clear from his very first days as a candidate that he was someone running for president who happened to be black not a black man running for president. But, in his inauguration speech Tuesday, Obama acknowledged how far African Americans had come in the country with one emotional line. "This is the meaning of our liberty and our creed, why men and women and children of every race and every faith can join in celebration across this magnificent mall, and why a man whose father less than sixty years ago might not have been served at a local restaurant can now stand before you to take a most sacred…

    During Donald Trump presidential campaign, he has insulted Latinos, Muslims, women, and people-of-color. He was also caught bragging about sexual assault and mocked a disabled reporter. But Trump shockingly won the presidency. He won states like Wisconsin, Michigan, and Pennsylvania, which had been a Democratic stronghold. Donald Trump beliefs are absurd and the exact opposite of what is the Statue of Liberty.…

    Anytime you turn on the news you hear about the Black Lives Matter movement or other forms of racism from our president. It is difficult to rise above racial prejudice when our president is one of the main ones generating it. It is really sad to say that I don’t think Ms. Hebshi’s racial profiling situation would’ve been much different if it was to have happened today, regardless of the six year difference. Since Trump’s presidency it hasn’t been a secret that he thinks all Muslims are a threat, when that couldn’t be further from the truth. I hope to see the day where all races feel as wanted in our country as they…

    As I to listen to President Obama speech on the Edmund Pettus Bridge in Selma Alabama to mark the 50th Anniversary of “Blood Sunday”. I thought about the question asked What could be more American and If I Agreed with this statement. President Obama throughout his speech single out the most important idea that Americans hold dear which is equal rights not just for some but for all people and sometimes this right must be achieved through struggle. When the President began to look at the life and the achievements of one of his heroes John Lewis who is now a congressman , but back then a twenty five year old cilvil rights leader who led a group of young people from the Brown Chapel to join other civil rights leaders and foot -soldiers to affect social change in America . President Obama in his speech cited several points to remind us of the courage that was necessary to attempt to influence the hearts and minds of a nation. One of the points he focused on and I quote:…

    Controversy has been circulating around the current presidential campaign. The Democratic nominee is Hillary Clinton and the Republican nominee is Donald Trump. Both have had confusing claims and radical ideas, but Donald Trump’s ideas have gotten out of line and created a great deal of pain. He has many good qualities, yet his bad qualities have recently been shining through. He began to blame other ethnic groups for the United States’ economic, foreign, and political trouble. Ideas like building a wall, prevention of immigration, and bombing other countries have been stated by Trump. His claims started fear worldwide, which initiated fights and violent rampages. Neither candidates are perfect for the presidential position, but this issue…

    Donald Trump won his presidency over Hilary Clinton, winning the electoral vote but losing the popular vote by around 2.9 million votes. Knowing that the majority of Americans did not want Trump as President, it would make sense for Trump to handle the office with care, and work to gain the trust of the Americans who did not want him as their President. In the short 48 days since Trump has been President, it is safe to say that he does not care about the opinions of those who did not vote for him and those that did vote for him. He signs executive orders and appoints nominees without consideration. He makes every move based on his priorities, and not the rest of America.…

    If you have been paying any attention at all to the news over the course of the past four months since President Trump’s jolted ascendency to the presidency on November 8th, you would have noticed that extremely vocal, and sometimes violent, opposition to the new administration has attempted to discredit, defame, and impede throughout every waking moment, not through fair and honest political means, but through a perpetual barrage of mental warfare conducted on the American people. Since November 8th, the opposition to Pres. Trump has, with the help of a, for the most part, friendly media, sought to blame the election of Pres. Trump on everything from the FBI, fake news, Neo-naziism, to the Russian government, the last of these being the one…

    On the grounds of having a racist president, the American Dream is not attainable to Americans. Equally important, ”Donald Trump’s retaliation against the parents of a Muslim U.S. Army officer who died while serving in the Iraq War was a clear low point in a campaign full of hateful rhetoric.” (O’Conner & Marans, 2016) Former US president, Donald Trump attacked Muslim Gold Star parents who lost a son who was a Muslim U.S. Army officer serving in the Iraq War. They were attacked because of their religious faith. You can’t criticize anyone for the faith they follow. That is just like tearing the ends of the American flag. Trump’s actions were completely un-American. If people can’t pursue their faith in America, how will they even reach the…

    Ever since Donald Trump was elected on January 20, 2017, it has set an internet crisis. People from both sides arguing in every place you can imagine. Two sides, one me. And I believe that President Donald J.

    When you say that he wanted “to spare himself the humiliation of further corporate desertions” the readers can visualise a helpless man, swayed by his advisors. This makes the viewers think that Trump does not have enough skill to confidently instruct those around him. In addition, you make him look violent and illogical by saying that “he crashed ahead,” attacking others with “bursts of anti-historical nonsense.” Such diction used create a sardonic tone overall - it appears as if Trump has done nothing right since the start of his regime. The truth is that he has made supreme court nominations, improved national security, and reduced the number of illegal immigrants entering the country. By not providing examples of such achievements and putting emphasis on his “sheer incompetence” people are determined, at this stage, that Trump is a poor leader. By listing out such weaknesses you have persuaded the viewers to think that Trump is both morally and politically unfit for the position of president. However, I think that by providing them with a neutral, information-based writing it would be more effective, since they would be able to know the whole context and develop their own…
