Donald Trump the Bully

For a few moments let us consider some of Donald Trump’s despicable xenophobic, misogynistic proclamations and narcissistic personality traits. Let’s take a look into the radical and bigoted remarks he has leveled against immigrants, Muslims, women and the disabled. Let’s focus on one aspect of his detestable rantings which have become manifest this election cycle, that of name-calling, i.e. Lyin’ Ted, Little Marco, Crooked Hillary, etc.

How many of us were bullied and called names as a child, hurtful names such as fatso, fagot, pig, sissy, stupid, and the like? How many as parents have experienced such demeaning remarks launched at our children? Trump has made these deplorable attacks against his opponents and critics the hallmark of his campaign tactics. As is the case with all bullies, Trump’s shameful antics are merely a smokescreen cover for his own weaknesses as a politician and inadequacies as a human being.

As decent and compassionate people, as responsible and freedom-loving citizens of the greatest country on Earth, how could we ever allow Donald Trump the Bully to represent us and our values at home and around the world as President of The United States?

As one who has experienced enough bullying and name-calling in a lifetime, this one failing alone is enough to disqualify Trump and his hatefully inspired agenda.
