Over the past 20 months, I have continually wonder how the Republicans party stands behind Trump. Trump’s behavior is a constant source of embarrassment to the United States of America. The demeanor associated with the office of the President has been eradicated by Trump.
There is no way to explain the heaviness I feel every day as I read the news. How could this man be elected to represent the virtues once associated with the President of the United States? What happened to our Country? In my opinion, it all boils down to fear and racism. It is easier to fear differences rather than educate oneself on different cultures and religions. It is easier to blame others for the shortcomings in one’s life. When did it become acceptable for a President to demoralize others based on gender, weight, intellect, and ability? Many Americans like Trump because “he’s not politically correct.” Is it politically correct to respect diversity? The words and actions of Trump only serve to further alienate minorities and our Allies. Trump’s utilization of fear incites hate crimes and further divides our Nation.
I have tried to understand the devotion and admiration demonstrated by Trump supporters. I tried to find a way to respect Trump as the Leader of our Nation. No matter how much I try, I just can’t do it.
