The Monumentally Low Character of Donald J Trump
It’s hard to know where to begin when documenting something that seems nearly boundless, the catalog of character flaws and disqualifications of Donald Trump as a President of the United States. I won’t even attempt, but I ask the reader to ask themselves throughout this article, “Can you imagine [Name a President] doing that?” If you want to set the bar higher, pick one our more celebrated Presidents such as Thomas Jefferson, Abraham Lincoln, one of the Roosevelts, JFK or Barack Obama, in the top 10 by historic standards.
Of course, this list is somewhat subjective but it does represent a certain level of Presidential Integrity, competence, eloquence and popularity. All of these Presidents rose to the challenges of their times, often heroically, and operated according to the Oath of the Office with deep respect for History and The Constitution. They generally demonstrated wisdom, courage and were well-educated, especially about how government works, why it is that way, and they all knew who they worked for—The American People. Indeed, you will find in all of these people a good measure of humility and a lack of interest in the trappings of power and wealth.
