Showing Original Post only (View all)What I Believe: Trump must be crushed. Not just beaten, broken. [View all]
He needs to lose in a landslide.
Trump isn't just mentally unstable. He's not just an epic egoist. He's not merely a narcissist.
Donald Trump is a classic "strong man"
He would, as President, attempt to operate as he does now and how he always has- as a brutish dictator, who believes only in his own supremacy.
He has already done incalculable damage. I mean that literally. We cannot, as of yet, fully calculate the damage he's incurred.
I don't know what kind of damage he could do as President, how far he could take it, how much he could get away with, but I don't want to find out.
As a nation, we need to repudiate Trump and those who follow him as completely as possible.
That's why I'll phone bank for HRC.
She'll win, but he needs to be crushed. The republican party needs to be crushed and put together again- hopefully by people with some degree sanity and integrity.
Donald Trump is toxic. His followers beliefs are toxic. It's difficult to find any humanity in Trump. Nothing beyond "I want..., me, me, me".
Trump is toxic in a way that far exceeds Bush or Reagan. I believe he'd actually try to use nuclear weapons.
Mentally unstable combined with a lack of humanity is about as dangerous a combination as can be imagined.
Like a grotesque Pandora, he has further opened a box that was cracked open by President Obama daring to President while black. And that's just one box.
Force and violence are unpleasant realities, but when they are in the forefront, we lose everything- to paraphrase E.M. Forster.
Donald Trump embodies force and violence, brutish power and precious little else.
