Trump train

The Trump train is about to arrive at the RNC station. This man appeals to the frustrations of the American people at their most mean spirited, thuggish, name calling, crude and demeaning way. His effort to act more presidential has never materialized. He has never in his life experienced the struggles of poor and middle class people. He has employed lawyers to use the bankruptcy laws to skirt his obligations, maintain his billions and never fully payback his losses. How many jobs were lost by his bankruptcies and international dealings. His deals with foreign governments were for his profits, for his benefit.

In his speeches he is good at touching the worst natures of those he proposes to represent. But he rarely appeals to the natures that will make a fairer and more just America. He is a demigogue who puts ego above all else. When has he given a substantive speech? When has he demonstrated he knows anything about complex national and international issues? How often has he deflected discussion of relevant issues by name calling and emotional outbursts?

This man is scary because he is smart with an ego that stifles his own conscience.
