Donald Trump jr claimed in an interview that everything his father touched turned to gold. It must be fools gold, giving the appearance of gold, but worthless. It's true that he has amassed a considerable fortune, however he has also filed for bankruptcy four times and has several failed business start ups, including one known as Trump steaks. This must have been the meat of his campaign, which so far is without substance and lacking policy. It's true several buildings bear his name, leading one to believe he owns several properties, however, most of them are owned by other people and lease his name.
It would seem his name is gold to the people leasing his buildings, but several of his own properties have gone bankrupt. It must be lead paint, toxic and peeling, revealing plaster board, easily sustaining holes, just like the mans campaign. So far he has supported water boarding, denying muslims entry, building a wall to keep out the killers and rapists from Mexico, and claims to love the jewish, despite the fact that a Vanity Fair article from 1990 claims he kept several of Hitler's speeches next to his bed and often referred to them, according to his ex wife. He claims to be interested in philanthropy, and yet the record shows otherwise. He has a charitable organization in his name, but so far he hasn't contributed to it. Another misleading property bearing his name.
And then there's his mouth. From comments about having no problem with the size of his genitals to making the statement that Megyn Kelly must have been bleeding from her “wherever”.
These are the juvenile comments of someone who never reached adulthood. Twice he has referred to the physical appearance of women running against him, commenting on their sexuality, as though this is what women “are for”.
Interestingly enough he has been mostly quiet on Bernie Sanders. Is this because he knows Bernie is without reproach and has fought for equality since he was in his early twenties, standing in picket lines and fighting against segregation. It's common knowledge that picketers are bullied by Trump supporters with his knowledge and support . He has even commented that he would like to “punch them in the face.”
Is this how he would deal with foreign heads of state that didn't agree with him?
Both Putin and Trump have oversized egos, and it's easy to see the sabers rattling.
It all paints the picture of a megalomaniac in need of constant ego building by the sycophants who support him. Count me out. I would rather support someone who paints a picture of equality and freedom from oppression.
