The Racist Misogynistic Orange
This presidential election has left many wondering, out of the three hundred million
people who live in the United States, is this really the best the country has to offer. On one hand
you have a racist misogynistic orange, who has deterred away from winning the election through
policy, but instead by controversy, Donald Trump. And then a woman who seems cannot remain
consistent on any topic, Hillary Clinton. Today well talk about the orange.
Every day a new controversy comes to light when it comes to Donald Trump. Whether
its an audio recording of him talking about groping women, women coming out saying that he
sexually assaulted them, or his tax returns from 1998 showing he hasnt paid taxes in the last 18
years.
A normal person whenever confronted which controversy, especially a presidential
nominee, would never talk about groping women in the first place, but even in the case where it
happened, would address the nation and apologize for what was said and make an oath to never
let something like that happen again. But we have to remember one key thing about Trump, he
isnt a normal person. Instead when asked about it in the second presidential election, Donald
Trump said what he said was wrong but ISIS is a lot worse. Which can be pretty much applicable
to anything. Sorry mom I totaled my car, but ISIS is beheading people in the middle east.
No it does not work like that. You dont get to just dodge a clear recording of you talking
about sexually assaulting women. But thats as bad as his response to controversy could get
right? He had to have handled the accusations of sexual assault better right? Nope.
When talking about a People magazine who reported that Trump forcibly kissed her, his
response was Look at her. Look at her words. You tell me what you think. I dont think so . . .
Believe me, she would not be my first choice, that I can tell you. Responding to sexual assault
in a sexist way, Donald Trump is like no other.
The common response by most Trump supporters is that they are supporting him because
he is not a politician, so he cannot be bought, he does not filter his thoughts to appeal to people,
he tells it like it is. The problem with that is when you are the leader of the United States, the
most powerful man/woman in this country, you need to behave professionally, which includes
not blurting out whatever comes to mind and sometimes compromising to achieve a greater goal.
Personally I could never trust a man who is at trigger happy as Trump. Whenever he is
criticized he responds in the heat of the moment and lets his emotion take over. This is a man that
if elected will have the nuclear codes. Former Secretary of State Colin Powell privately
called Mr. Trump an international pariah. We need a president who thinks with their head not
their heart.
Lastly Trump does not represent the democracy and the foundation that this country was
built on. Constantly at his allies he has been talking about how the election is completely rigged
against him, which is an absurd thing to be shouting especially when your following is built on
over passionate, entitled people. When asked in the third presidential debate if he would accept
whatever the results were, he said he would let the people know when it happened. It is expected

of the losing party to call the winning party on election night and congratulate the winning party,
and to give a concession speech. If Trump cannot do this, it could be catastrophic.
Trump exemplifies the qualities of the worst of America. He is a man who believes he is
the greatest and most superior thing to ever grace this earth. So naturally he feels like he is
exempt from all rules and free to do whatever he wants. So when he sexually assaults women, it
was a lie, when he evades taxes, it was a loop hole that wasnt patches by Hillary Clinton, it is
never his fault.
If Trump as a person is not bad enough, his politics are even worse. Trump has no
experience with national security or any military experience (because he is a draft dodger), but
despite that claims he knows exactly how to ISIS, so what is that plan? We dont know just like
most of Trumps policys because he just dodges any questions relating to policy, or how he will
pay for said policys. When asked about anything his response is it would be dumb to say
because then it would tip off ISIS. Fantastic.
His campaign has really made all the racist who were hiding in the US come up and feel
like they had a place to be comfortable. When pledge to completely block out all Muslims from
entering the United States is another incredibly popular policy. But how would he do so? Will
TSA at an airport just ask if youre Muslim? How will you prove that you are not Muslim? Just
like his plan to destroy ISIS, this also has not planning behind it and is just talk.
According to NBC, since the beginning of his campaign Trump has made 117 distinct
policy shifts on 20 major issues. This includes three contracting views on abortion in the span of
eight hours.
Donald Trump is the worst possible scenario for this country, and the American people
must do everything possible, to stop him from getting into office.
