One of the most talked about men in the world at this moment is Donald Trump, and unfortunately he's running for the office of the President of the United States. This is going to strictly be an opinion post, so if you love Trump and will be easily offended I don't suggest reading it.
Donald Trump grinds my gears. He's a billionaire who has claimed he'd run for presidency multiple times in the past, and now he's finally followed through with his word. He's extremely wealthy and rude and annoying.
Trump accused Megyn Kelly of having a hormonal imbalance when she asked him questions regarding his treatment of women. Just like a bully, Trump felt offended and resorted to insults to make himself feel better. Politics have always included bickering back and forth, but Trump gets personal and down right mean. Sure he's honest, but do we really want to have a high class butthole representing America? I think not.
However annoying these characteristics may be, the utmost horrific thing I have ever heard regarding Donald Trump is his policy and political views regarding Muslims. Trump is an Islamophobic. He wants to require all Muslims to carry special identification cards. He wants all Muslims who enter the country to be required to stay here for the rest of their lives, essentially holding them hostage. He wants them to be routinely monitored by the government and to travel in groups in special vehicles. He does this in the name of national security. But I see it as radical absurdity. There have been tweets and posts comparing Trump to Hitler. I don't think and I certainly hope that Trump does not plan on eradicating all Muslims. He just hasn't wrapped his head around the concept that not all Muslims are terrorists.
Politics are confusing and so are old white men who believe they are the center of the universe. Whatever your opinion is, I hope you own it. I don't like Trump and that's ok. You may love Trump and that's ok. Differences of opinion are important.
stay peaceful (and open-minded)!!
