It is funny how people forget what happens when you elect an incompetent president.
It was only 8 years ago we had an incompetent man as president. George W. Bush! He started needless wars, bankrupt the entire country, had international relationships at their lowest point, etc.
Look at Trump. The man is incompetent. If he did not get so much foreign country help from Russia or FBI intentional sabotage help Trump would be crushed by Hillary Clinton. Trump ran an incompetent campaign.
Trump will run an incompetent presidency if elected.
Do you really want another George W. Bush as president?

(1,996 posts)Trump will pull more dirty tricks than W would even think off. I don't trust any of Trump's followers either, the years under Trump would be uglier than those of W.
Trump would make George W Bush look like fucking Obi Wan Kenobi.
Trump would be worse! George W.* only joked about being a dictator. Donald J. Trump really WANTS to be a dictator.

(28,262 posts)I believe that Trump and his maniac followers, if they've got a lock on all three branches of government, are fully capable of such measures. If you think that's outlandish thinking, I invite you to review how things developed, step by step, in 1930's Germany.

(19,066 posts)Bush was an incredibly bad president. The worst in our history by far. Trump is a fascist and a Neo Nazi. Nuclear war and genocide are on the table with him.
The world, not just the country, may never recover from a Trump Presidency. He will do away with the first amendment, he will stack the courts with White Supremacists. They would essentially prohibit half the country from voting again. America would be justly seen as a threat to the world, we'd be the enemy of freedom. The rest of the world would unite against us economically and militarily.
