People who want their President to have a good ethical/moral character, be an upstanding citizen for all to look up to... you have a legitimate gripe against Trump.
He is not a ethical man. Not in most people's book anyway.
Most would agree to assume he is a serial adulterer, has a history of seeing woman as sex objects and generally speaking is a bit of a slut. (or as it appears to be)
Financially, there are more rumors of shaky going on's than one can count. It seems indeed he has made some of his money in questionable ways.
So...for people who are angry or upset about Trumps less than illustrious past... you have a legitimate complaint.
That's fair.
Having said that, however.......
What you can't do, is claim this matters to you now when it didn't matter to you during President Clinton's terms. You can't say his results is what mattered then, his personal life doesn't... but do the opposite with Trump!
This is called being a hypocrite.
Perhaps it's called a false premise.
Rump may be a slut and all that, agreed. But that's got nothing to do with Presidenting. It may be (and is) repugnant but as regards the job it's also irrelevant. What you've done here is centered on one minor character flaw and ignored the major ones. Demonstrable mental illness (gross narcissism). Outright fabrication, denials of reality and self-delusion. Obsession with division. Crass demagoguery. Spitefulness and snowflakery. Complete inability to cope. Profound ignorance of what the job entails.
That sort of thing. You know, things that actually affect the day-to-day job. Directly.
In other words, to touch on your second point, it matters far FAR less to me that he's had failed businesses, left creditors holding the bag, etc, than that he stands there and bald-faced lies about it, denying it ever even happened. If you can't cope in the plane of reality, then you have no business being in a responsible position. Simple as that.
really Pogo?
I hope you realize just about your entire paragraph could equally describe Obama. If you can't see that, then you are blind.
I didn't want Trump to be President. The only thing I wanted less was Hillary to be President.
Trump is egotistical, gets far too hung up on personal matters and spends waaay too much time trashing people over trivial matters that are so completely beneath the office.
But he is the President of the United States. And he was voted in for a reason. I wish everyone would think more about that, then all of this white noise and faux outrage.
Of course "really". In fact "really" was the whole POINT there.
I've never seen O'bama --- or for that matter anyone anywhere --- float in a world of self-delusion and outright denial of reality to this extent. I've never seen O'bama or anyone in the world stand there look directly into a camera and flat-out lie about what he did or what he said or what he saw, literally every goddam day. Never seen O'bama or anyone else claim he saw "thousands and thousands dancing on rooftops" which never happened, claimed he "saw it on TV" which never happened, and when a reporter wouldn't lie for him to confirm it I never say O'bama or anyone else mock a congenital disability and THEN, not done yet, deny that's what he was doing. That's just one sample, and as you well know we could go on with these literally all day and by the time we got done there would be fresh ones.
COMPLETE denial of reality. Self-delusion.
The fact that he was "voted in" isn't even
connected to the above, even if it is a statement on the electoral system itself. And oh yes he lied about that too, in myriad ways, and we could go on and on with that as well.
So yes, "really". LITERALLY really.
