4 Reasons Why I'm No Longer a Trump Supporter

[Anonymous]

I used to support Trump, I took his ideas and what I thought was his experience seriously and thought he would be fit to be the President of the United States of America. I was blinded, though. What I thought was going to be a good president turned out to be just like all the others, nothing special and nothing I want to be the President of.

1. He insults races, women, disorders, etc.

Trump has been known for his outbursts of insults, but in a way it's a bit childish to say the least. I'm pretty sure my 15 year old daughter is more mature than this man could ever be in his entire life. Why would I want a man with the brain of a child running our country? Not only has he insulted Alicia Machado for her eating disorders, but he has mocked other people too like the ignorant bastard he truly is. I never really saw this side to him before, thinking maybe it was just a joke, but the light has come to me and has shown me his true intentions. He also insults various women, and races too, I bet you don't need examples from me to show the obvious though. Just look it up, you're bound to find many.

2. Donald Trump fails to share his ideas.

Most of the time when Donald Trump is asked about his ideas he has nothing to show for it. At first I always thought it was going to be a surprise, that maybe he really did have something planned and as a supporter I respected such things, but now I realize he doesn't have what it takes to be responsible and president of this country. Why would he not share his ideas if it is his goal to be president? Surely a good president shares ideas with the citizens to hear our take on it too, sometimes I think he hopes he doesn't win because his mind is like a blank paper a high school student is trying to write the night before it's due.

3. Some of his ideas just aren't viable.

For instance, the one he proposed about rich people creating jobs? That has been done in many instances with previous presidents and they have all failed. What makes us think the same exact plan can work?

4. He has done nothing to benefit this country.

I am not trying to be biased or take the side of Hillary Clinton as I think both are unfit to be the president of our country in these times. However, I cannot ignore the fact that in the first presidential debate he states that Hillary has done nothing, but at the same time Hillary has gone everywhere and tried to strike up ideas with other countries, political leaders, etc. What has Trump done? Absolutely nothing pretty much. Shall I bring up the fact that most of the other Republicans refused to stand by his side? That's really saying something.

I am not trying to be biased towards Trump, I am not a supporter or Hillary or Trump, but after being a supporter of him I realized the true light, that he himself isn't fit either to be president, and I can never be a supporter of his again unless he shapes up.

[madhatters4]

i'm glad you were able to still see rationally while you were supporting him.

no one says clinton is a saint or close to it. i so desperately wish there was a better option (with a legitimate chance to win) than clinton; but trump just disturbs me so much with his insensitive and bigoted views not to mention is lack of experience or lack of detailed plan to be president

[Anonymous]

I am against both Trump and Clinton, but if I have to choose between Trump OR Clinton, then I would go with Clinton. At least Hillary has been to the White House before.

[kitty71]

That is exactly what I said, even if Clinton or Trump are not good candidates you will have to vote for one of them, you have no choice. Vote for the best one of the worst ones. Indeed at least Hillary has political experience and had been in the Wh before. Trump is just a good entrepenaur and good business man. Being a good business man is one thing, being the president of a nation is a total different thing.

[Botchie]

@kitty71 You do have more choices than those 2. You just feel that you don't because by not voting against the worse of them, it feels that their odds of winning are better. There's other candidates like Johnson or Stein or thousands of others. but only the 2 "main" candidates have the best chance of winning thanks to the media and their group think mentality.

[Phoenix98]

1. He insults races, women, disorders, etc.
Really then why does his company treat women better then most companies and organizations int he country? or the fact that he pays women more and gives them lots of opportunities for advancement. And why does he have a large Latino and black following and supporters?

2. Donald Trump fails to share his ideas.
Actually all of his ideas, stances and policies are on his website in full detail something he's told people multiple times and to check them out.

3. Some of his ideas just aren't viable.
Actually most of his ideas are viable and almost all the companies businesses and jobs are tied to the rich class. That's how the economy works, the rich provide the companies and the jobs, they employee the middle class. The middle class gets payed by the rich people for doing the job they employ them to do. The middle class and lower class then go out and spend that money on items, food, fun stuff, bills etc most of which is made or owned by rich people, that money is then recycled back to the rich through those payments and transactions and that money is used to expand businesses, make new and or better products and create more jobs.

4. He has done nothing to benefit this country.
So I guess expanding his business and creating jobs for our citizens as well as giving people a chance to create their own businesses and giving anonymously to charities doesn't count right?

[Botchie]

Disclaimer: I am anti Hillary and anti Trump and am trying to be as unbiased as possible in order to best represent both sides.

1. Just because he pays them better and "publicly" treats them better doesn't mean it's ok to do a 180 in private and treat them poorly (even if it is words).
2. No one is ever going to agree on a middle ground for this. He can't share everything (i. e. Plan to defeat ISIS) and he also can't hide too much (Current tax returns)
3. Every candidate has ideas and policies that others won't find viable. Taxing the rich more won't do anything because they have the ability to pass the tax on to their consumers (The wealthy are those with businesses and control wealth distribution). Raising wages also only speeds up inflation. So there's no winning for either side here.
4. I think OP thinks Trump has indirectly helped the country rather than directly helped like Hillary "tried" to do.

[Nice_Guy_Last]

Donald Trump has lost Americans more jobs than he has created in America. He just ships the jobs overseas.

[ObscuredBeyond]

1. Some of that has been shown to be false. To say nothing of the Clintons, Kennedys, and more paving the way to creating men like Trump. They are the ARCHITECTS of men like Trump!

2. This one is valid. I too am skeptical of cults of personality.

3. Other presidents promised to take away overregulation, so economists had breathing room. But they were quickly seduced by power, and didn't fulfill this promise. Restrictions have gotten tighter and tighter. Also, caving to Demoncrap demands that low-to-no-skill countries get preference on immigration, when all that yields are ungrateful welfare leeches, has robbed us of the global skill pool. Yet, while this DNC policy is racist, GOP leaders who don't give in are called "racist" for not catering! Yet, catering means MORE restrictions, thus violating their promises. The rich can't create jobs if you tie them up!

4. Hillary's "trying to strike up ideas" has always been about dismantling the American dream, and benefiting the worst evildoers around the world.

I'm glad you don't want to support either. One's just a product of the culture, and the other is Satan's harpy on this Earth - and helped create ISIS, as WikiLeaks has gone to great lengths to expose!

Darrell Castle and the Constitution Party have always been there, so don't feel like Trump is the only option. Even if my name isn't attached to someone the system is rigged to elect, I don't care. I'm not so vain as to vote for a turd sandwich, just to say my name is attached to a winner. Nobody gets a trophy for voting anyway!

[RationalMale]

1. How about vote for Hillary? Here's what a victim of child rape who she viciously attacked on stand said.

Here's how she sought to "destroy" the woman her husband raped as governor of Arkansas.

[Nice_Guy_Last]

Hillary is the devil we know, Trump is the devil we are learning about.

[RationalMale]

@Nice_Guy_Last Trump is the devil on our side, Hillary is the devil on the side of people who want to kill us.

[Nice_Guy_Last]

Trump is on the side of the money. If his business career has shown anything, it's that. Why does he want taxes cut for the rich? Because it will mean he has less to pay come April 15th. Why does he not support the TPP? Because it will create competition for his companies that employ almost exclusively non-American workers. Why does Trump want to build a wall to prevent Mexican immigrants from coming to America? Because he'd rather pay Mexicans in Mexico for dirt cheap than pay them in America for an honest wage.

Not saying that Hillary's on our side. Just pointing out that Trump's not either.

[Sweetgirl1108]

@Nice_Guy_Last And you think Hillary isn't about money? What do you think the Clinton Foundation is? Her own personal slush fund... it is a big scam.

[Nice_Guy_Last]

@Sweetgirl1108 She is on the side of money as well. I'm just saying there's not much of a difference. They're both chronic liars with sketchy at best backgrounds and dubious motivations.

[Peskyn3gr0]

Daily mail is never a source of good information, it's tabloid. It's like citing the National Enquirer.

Damn, your a moron. RationalMale? More like bitter, lonely virgin.

[RationalMale]

@Peskyn3gr0 Then google it yourself fucktard. You can listen to her in an interview discussing it on youtube if you like.

[PrincessofNohr]

Did you actually use Daily Mail as a source? Here is a countering article:

www.snopes.com/.../

[RationalMale]

@PrincessofNohr so you agree that Hillary defended a child rapist and he pled it down to unlawful fondling because hillary managed to get the forensic evidence blocked? Oh and Snopes is a website run by a couple, Barbara and David Mikkelson. Not to professional organization or college--just a couple putting their spin on things.

[Nice_Guy_Last]

Well, based on recent reports, it looks like Donald Trump IS a sex offender.

[RationalMale]

@Nice_Guy_Last Suuuure. That's why they all waited decades then decided to all come forward two weeks before the election. Right after Hillary and the Obamas decided to hit trump as anti-woman.

[Nice_Guy_Last]

I hope to God you are not a father. Because if you are, you are either a hypocrite or a terrible father.

[inceptin951]

All those reasons are things he has been doing from the beginning so it sounds to me like you never supported Trump in the first place and are just looking for an excuse to bash him really.

Also I think it is ironic Trump has insulted many men and you only focus on him insulting women. You are the one who thinks Trump should treat women like they are fragile and not equal to men. The reality is that the women Trump insulted like Rosie O' Donnel insulted him first and they had it coming. He was in the entertainment industry and financially benefited from hyping it up by insulting back.

[godfatherfan]

Unless your white trash, you shouldn't be a supporter.
95% of his own party has turned their back on him. Many have openly stated they will vote for Hillary (who is going to win anyway).
He is racist
He regularly degrades women
he is a homophobic, biggot..
the list goes on and on
most importantly, anyone that can be taunted into a twitter hissy fit is not qualified, nor has the temperament to be president of the most powerful country in the world.

[Sweetgirl1108]

Hillary takes money from countries that have Sharia Law. She defended her husband that sexually assaulted women. She is the racist.. she refers to black men as sexual predators. She is also on record saying she is against gay marriage. So yeah she is much better... lol

[G-Daz]

!. What race did he insult and can you give an example?

2. Perhaps he doesn't know shit enough on certain issues to mollycoddle a conspiciously constructued that holds no validity. Whereas your alternative... is to have someone that won't be able to provide an answer of substance on an issue but will make one up

3. Which presidents prioritised helping businesses to start jobs? not obama, nor bush

4. I don't see how this has any value... obviously he has. Whether you like Trump or not is irrelevant. The best person for a job isn't always someone you think has the best personality. It's about making progressive improvements. Trump is a multi billionaire that HAS proven to create jobs already. Hilary has no creedence of the sort. She'll follow on from Obama's plans, more than likely worse

[G-Daz]

I don't particularly agree with trump on everything or think he has the most amazing personality but it isn't a popularity content which seems to be the basis for most people's opinions on who should be president.

[Anonymous]

So what do you plan to do now then?

Are you not going to vote at all?

Vote for a 3rd party candidate like Jill Stein or Gary Johnson?

Or make plans to move outside of the country, at least for the next 4 years?

I still believed that no matter who becomes the next President will have a really hard time picking up after the results of the last two administrations, both Bush's and Obama's, and there really isn't going to be much or any hope for a better future or better changes at all despite people think or want to believe that there will be hope for a better future and better change.

I want to move but don't have the money. Immigration to another country isn't as simple and easy as I thought and hoped for. I don't have any relatives or family living anywhere else besides the states thus it makes it very difficult to move to another country altogether.

[Library]

Good job. I'm glad you finally realized what a horrible person he is.

[Fathoms77]

'sigh'

Trump is a nutbar and Clinton is an evil witch. And these are our leading candidates... it's just embarrassing.

[FallOutBoy2001]

I refer to them as the narcissistic cheeto and the wicked witch of the west wing

[Fathoms77]

@FallOutBoy2001 LOL

[FallOutBoy2001]

It's good, isn't it? 😂

[vishna]

@FallOutBoy2001 I refer to him as a cheeto too! small world :3 :3 :3

@vishna haha

[SarahsSummer]

All 4 of those points are not new information. What suddenly caused you to not ignore them any longer?

[realerthanreal]

Lol I love the pictures people use of him. He's like the ultimate troll. by the way, did you actually believe he knew anything about anything? I think he ran because he wanted control over the groups of people he hated. Also just one more thing to add to his resume.

[Saoirse_Nua]

It is a big few days for him or he may lose more people like you. I think it is too early to say but he needs a stormer of a debate or a real hiccup from Hillary to save him. I don't know but I am getting the feeling there is more out there. It is being carefully timed for release.

[TripleAce]

Trump is a quack but can you blame him, look at what he needs to defend, USA. It's no easy job to run a country that has a currency that is useless and only staying afloat because it's backed by oil.

Just because Hillary is playing the diplomatic card, don't be fooled by that. She's been groomed by the system to do their biddings and that is what she will do

The wild cards, trump - may be a quack but at least he's not part of them

[steveguitar]

why did you think he was good in the first place? half of the things you mentioned are very typical of right wing politicians. In Canada the right wingers are just the same, no policies, stupid idealism, no progress of humanity and even cause it to get worse.

[Rissyanne]

Who you going to vote for Hillary? You are nuts. She has been in politics for 30 years what has she done for the American people? Nothing. She is evil.

[Abe90]

Anyone who uses their brain, knew this from the start. He isn't very hard to analyze as an individual that's suitable for being the president. If anyone responds to my post, read what they say. They use personal attacks against who we believe in and personally insult us

[Anonymous]

I applaud you for using your brain unlike the remaining trump supporters who have no brain.

Yeah right, I'm pretty sure you used to be a Trump supporter... hahahah XD

[Maik567]

"I used to support Trump"

No you didn't. It's fucking obvious that you are a Hillary supported and never were on the side of Trump or you wouldn't say retarded shit like "He has done nothing to benefit this country."

[Jeeevan]

Exactly what I was thinking

[LoloWaye]

You just realized this? I could never support someone who puts people down the way he does. He has no respect and deserves none.

I'm looking more into Gary and Jill. I have to heard anything about them acting a fool.
