Just a Paltry Few Things I Don't Like About Trump.

I guess my main problems with Trump are that he has clear autocratic ambitions and authoritarian tactics; has absolutely no respect for our democratic-republican institutions such as the constitutional separation of powers; is openly trying to be a dictator; is vastly corrupt; breaks laws and then breaks laws to hinder investigations into the other broken laws; botched the federal response to the pandemic, which has resulted in tens or hundreds of thousands more deaths and more suffering than we would've experienced with compassionate and competent leadership; committed treason by allowing the Russians to put bounties on our soldiers’ heads without any push-back at all; is at war with the free press; is openly trying to steal the 2020 presidential election; is constantly combative about every single fucking thing, often lambasting both Democrats as well as Republicans for any petty reason his infantile mind can latch on to; never admits any wrongdoing, despite being the most corrupt modern US president; doesn't read his daily briefings and disparages expertise; defrauded thousands of people of their money with Trump University, an unaccredited sham that used misleading marketing tactics to recruit students, leading to lawsuits that he eventually settled for $25 million; stole money that people donated to his charity, the Trump Foundations, and used it for political purposes; stole money from his own fucking charity, something that needs to be said twice; has refused to divest from his real estate companies or place his assets in a blind trust, so he wouldn't be in violation of the Emoluments Clause of the Constitution; promised through his lawyer that he'd donate all profits from that official state business at his hotels to the US treasury, but then of course never did; has a myriad of clear conflicts of interest, getting tax-payer money funneling into his own businesses, in violation of the Emoluments Clause; often gets his own secret service to pay his own hotels after he decides that his own secret service will stay at his own hotels, in violation of the Emoluments Clause; made money in his personal businesses from foreign governments, in violation of the Emoluments Clause; promised to donate all profits from foreign governments to the US treasury, but then of course never did; lied and said he made good on his promise to donate all profits from foreign governments to the US treasury; has made over 500 visits to his own properties as president, so he keeps profiting off of his own presidency; made $2.4 million a year from the military renting space in Trump Tower; has had many business dealings with state-owned Russian businesses and never provided financial records; allowed his daughter Ivanka to use the Oval Office and his position as POTUS to promote and sell products; has still never shown his tax returns, like all candidates for president are expected to do, though the New York Times got a hold of his tax cuts and showed us the reasons he was hiding them; campaigned on draining the swamp and yet has hired and surrounded himself with more lobbyists than anyone; at one point was found to have had half of his nominees for Senate-confirmed positions with significant conflicts of interest; habitually tore up presidential records, causing other officials to tape them together to ensure that Trump didn't get caught violating the Presidential Records Act; removed the independent watchdog leading the oversight panel tasked with monitoring the distribution of the $2.2 trillion Covid-19 relief bill; has filed lawsuits to prevent the release of his financial information in investigations, while still constantly claiming he’s done nothing wrong; has had a history of refusing to pay contractors after they’ve done work for him; bragged in a debate about his history of refusing to pay contractors who work for him; pays less in taxes than an average bar tender or restaurant server despite his immense wealth; bragged in a debate about not paying taxes, saying “that makes me smart”; mocked a reporter for said reporter’s disability, in front of a huge crowd of supporters; continued spreading an old, thoroughly debunked conspiracy theory that now MSNBC anchor Joe Scarborough was guilty of murder in the 2001 death of Lori Klausutis, a death that had been investigated and immediately ruled by police as showing no signs up foul play; has consistently and openly displayed his autocratic ambitions and antipathy towards our separation of powers; has openly encouraged violence against both dissenters and members of the press; has continued throughout his presidency to falsely claim there were 3 million illegal votes in 2016 in a transparent effort to suppress the vote in the future; signed an executive order on May 11, 2017 to form a task force to investigate his wild and thoroughly discredited allegations of voter fraud; requested that state officials release private voter information to his bullshit voter fraud panel, and tweeted angrily when 44 states and DC refused to infringe on voters’ privacy in this manner; has never mentioned that his voter fraud investigation found no evidence of voter fraud, and they had plenty of political motivation to find such fraud among the left, considering it was led by a paid columnist for the alt-right website Breitbart; has continued to make baseless claims and accusations of voter fraud against solely Democratic voters, without any evidence; has insisted that mail-in voting in more susceptible to fraud, and has continued to ramp up these charges in the lead-up to the 2020 presidential election, without any evidence; is using his baseless claims of voter fraud to try to steal the 2020 presidential election; is planning this dismantling of democracy using multiple tyrannical strategies; is sabotaging the postal service, using his baseless claims of voter fraud as an excuse to slow down the mail-in vote; has succeeded in sabotaging the postal service, as his hand-picked henchman, Postmaster General Louis DeJoy, has intentionally stripped down USPS services; has succeeded in slowing down the postal service so much that there are concerns that a significant number of ballots, perhaps in the millions, mailed on time will not arrive by election day, thereby disenfranchising overwhelmingly Democratic voters when their votes are thrown away; has filed lawsuits against multiple states to stop or slow down the mail-in voting; has been openly planning to claim victory prematurely on election night, knowing that the mail-in votes will be overwhelmingly for his opponent and they usually take longer to count, so he'll have a deceiving and temporary lead in key states; has been openly admitting that he’s planning on creating this constitutional crisis on election night, claiming false victory and then persuading Republican legislatures in key swing states to ignore the ballots and assign electors who will vote for him; has often indicated that he might not accept the results of the election, excusing this autocratic behavior by insisting that the mail-in vote will be largely fraudulent, though he still has not produced the slightest bit of evidence for this; has repeatedly claimed to have total authority when he clearly didn’t, possibly because he's too ignorant to know, or possibly because he's a gaslighting shit stain; has constantly praised authoritarian governments for their authoritarianism, while alienating our traditional democratic allies; has publicly defended and even touted his friendship with North Korean tyrant Kim Jong Un; defended Kim Jong Un regarding the death of Otto Warmbier, the American college student who died after being detained in that totalitarian shithole country;

has inflamed his supporters’ anger at the free press to such an extent they those supporters have physically assaulted reporters; praised Republican Congressman Greg Gianforte for body-slamming Guardian reporter Ben Jacobs; refers to any story unfavorable to him as “fake news,” which is Orwellian, since he’s the one who benefitted in the 2016 presidential election from actual fake news; once barred some media outlets from their designated spots at the daily press briefing, allowing only friendly, right-wing outlets, like a wannabe dictator does; demanded loyalty, like a wannabe dictator does, from FBI Director James Comey; encouraged violence against dissenters at his campaign rallies, like the vile, autocratic piece of horseshit he is; frequently claims authority over things over which the Constitution explicitly states that he doesn't have authority, like the autocratic shit pile he is;

belittled federal judge James Robart, referring to him as a "so-called judge," because he didn't like one of Robart's decisions, like the autocratic fuck bucket he is; lambasted SCOTUS for ruling that he couldn't block the release of his tax returns, suggesting that it was a personal assault on him, like the autocratic shit waffle he is; publicly attacked a circuit court because he didn't like a decision, and then said he was considering proposals to break up the panel of judges, like the autocratic ass monkey he is; suggested two SCOTUS justices should recuse themselves from anything related to Trump, because they had been critical of him in the past, like the autocratic fuck salad he is;

suggested postponing the US election, which would be an autocratic move completely unprecedented in our history, like the autocratic, rotting cockroach corpse he is; has repeatedly and openly suggested that he should be “entitled” to a third term as president, like the autocratic dick dumpster he is; justified revoking the press pass of Jim Acosta of CNN by releasing a video that had been doctored to make Acosta look like the aggressor, when in fact Acosta’s pass was revoked simply for asking a tough question; had protesters sprayed with tear gas to clear the road for him so that he could make it to a church for a photo-op in which he's holding a bible; paints a picture of support for the Christian Right for political reasons and doesn’t even go to church or know the first thing about the Bible; attacked 2020 Democratic presidential contender Joe Biden, a Catholic who attends mass regularly, as a militant anti-theist who is “against God”; fought against his dissenters' first-amendment rights to protest, his lawyers arguing in court that the protesters didn't have that right because, somehow, it interfered with Trump's first amendment rights, which is fucking Orwellian; has unleashed federal troops against peaceful protesters, which he had been warning about on Twitter; had federal officers attack protesters in Oregon and abduct some of them in unmarked vans; had the Department of Homeland Security order Twitter to reveal the private information of a user who had been critical of him;

was friends with sex predator, child sex trafficker, and overall monster, Jeffrey Epstein, and even sent good wishes to his co-conspirator, Ghislaine Maxwell, after her arrest; once called Jeffrey Epstein, a "terrific guy" who "likes beautiful women as much as I do, and many of them are on the younger side"; told a sheriff in Rockwell County, Texas, to “destroy” the career of a state senator who had opposed civil asset forfeiture, a controversial practice that allows police officers to seize cash and assets they believe may be related to a crime, even if the property owners were never convicted of that crime; blamed President Obama for a gas attack in a rebel-controlled area of Syria that occurred after Obama left office; illegally had his lawyer, Michael Cohen, use campaign funds to pay hush money to women with whom he had affairs; had Cohen rig online polling in 2016 to make it seem like Trump had more support than he did; called an FBI raid on Cohen’s office as a routine part of its investigation “an attack on our country”; later turned on Cohen and attacked him when Cohen was found guilty of the crimes Trump had him commit; has been sued by the Justice Department for refusing to rent his property to people of color; perpetuated the racist rumor that President Barack Obama was born in Kenya; perpetuated the bigoted myth that Obama was a Muslim, which isn’t true and would be irrelevant in any case; signed an executive order banning travel from seven Muslim countries, a list that somehow did not included Saudi Arabia, of which 15 of the 19 9/11 hijackers were citizens, surely being irrelevant that Trump had business dealings with that nation;

implied in a speech that most Mexican immigrants are drug dealers and rapists; used promises of a wall on our Mexican border, that would somehow be paid for by Mexico, to excite his racist base for the 2016 election; later denied that he meant Mexico was going to pay directly for the wall, claiming that he instead was going to make them pay indirectly through some policy actions, though that was clearly not what he meant at first; tried to have the wall built using our own money, not Mexico’s, but failed; declared a national emergency to get $5.7 billion for his stupid, pointless fucking wall – a national fucking emergency, because he lost in the normal legislative process; caused a rare bipartisan moment when Republicans joined Democrats to pass a joint resolution to overturn his stupid national emergency, which he vetoed, of course; implemented a zero-tolerance immigration policy that caused federal authorities to forcibly separate children from their own parents at the border, holding the kids in government custody as the parents were prosecuted; continued this zero-tolerance policy as families were broken up, and a few kids died; continued this zero-tolerance policy as distraught kids were unaware of their parents’ condition or whereabouts and vice versa, with many families unable to find each other even when the policy ended; later blamed Obama and the Democrats for his zero-tolerance border policy, a policy that started on April 6, 2018; pardoned Arizona Sheriff Joe Arpaio, who was convicted of criminal contempt for defying a court order to stop illegally detaining innocent people of Hispanic origin for absolutely no reason; publicly had a tantrum after a court blocked his attempt to deny federal funding for “sanctuary cities” -- cities that refused to comply with his authoritarian demand to always contact federal deportation officials if they find out that someone who’s been arrested is undocumented;

claimed a judge wouldn't be able to be objective in a case he was involved in because the judge was Mexican; immediately assumed guilt in 1989 of the "central park five" -- the five young black men convicted of the rape and murder of a Central Park jogger, but were later exonerated by DNA evidence -- and viciously and publicly attacked them; reiterated his false, racist claim that the “Central Park Five” were guilty in 2016, despite their having been exonerated by DNA evidence; has caused spikes of white supremacist organizations and activity, as well as hate crimes; has emboldened and therefore strengthened white supremacist organizations throughout the country, rousing up so much hatred of racial and ethnic minorities among his supporters that many of them have felt comfortable physically attacking members of those minority communities in public; is praised and supported by white supremacists; has defended white supremacists; failed to condemn the white supremacists after the Unite the Right rally in Charlottesville, where neo-Nazis and Ku Klux Klan members protested and one murdered a counter-protester with his car, saying instead that there were "good people on both sides," and that there was violence on both sides, the former being a hideous opinion and the latter part being a blatant lie; blamed the media for the public's reaction to his Charlottesville comments, though he was quoted accurately and in context; has done nothing to stop his crazy supporters from these physical assaults of racial and ethnic minorities;

was the beneficiary of Russian government interference in our 2016 election; got Paul Manafort as a campaign manager, a guy who had made millions of dollars consulting for a Russian politician who was, incidentally, a close ally of Vladamir Putin; had tons of correspondence with the Russians, more than 100 contacts between the Trump campaign and various Russian officials, many of these for the express purpose of gathering dirt on Democratic Presidential candidate Hillary Clinton; admitted that one of these meetings involved his own son, but insisted that these kinds of meetings were acceptable; lied and said, “there was no communication between the campaign and any foreign entity during the campaign”; took advantage of Russia’s hacking of Clinton’s email, and during a press conference even publicly called on them to illegally hack some more; had Manafort secretly meet with the Russians just two weeks before the election; tried to convince Attorney General Jeff Sessions not to recuse himself from the Justice Department’s ongoing Russia investigation after reports surfaced that Sessions had two undisclosed meetings with Russian Ambassador Sergey Kislyak during the 2016 campaign, a fact about which Sessions lied under oath; told Sessions that he expected Sessions to protect him in the investigation; admitted that he would not have chosen Sessions to be the attorney general if he had known Sessions would (appropriately) recuse himself from the Russia investigation; has continued to attack Sessions publicly, for reasons that only a narcissistic asshole can possibly understand; had political adviser Roger Stone commit several crimes to protect him, leading to Stone’s being convicted of perjury, obstruction of justice, and witness tampering; commuted Stone’s 40-month prison sentence to nothing; had Manafort also lie for him; asked FBI Director James Comey, who was leading the Russia investigation, to end the investigation, because he claimed it was impeding his ability to make deals for the country; fired Comey in the middle of Comey’s investigation of Trump’s alleged collusion with Russia during the 2016 election, like the autocratic malignant tumor he is; admitted in an interview that he fired Comey because of the Russia investigation; defended National Security Advisor Michael Flynn after revelations that he had met with the Russians to discuss sanctions and then lied about it; called Comey’s investigation a “witch hunt,” this despite Comey being a registered Republican most of his adult life, and one of the major reasons Trump won in 2016, just a few days after Comey’s announcement that Hillary would be under investigation caused a noticeable dip in her poll numbers; called Comey a "proven LEAKER & LIAR" and "weak" and "untruthful slime ball" because Comey told the truth about Trump; still never cooperated, even after Comey’s firing, with the investigation, now being led by special counsel Robert Mueller;

was protected by four witnesses who defied their subpoenas to testify; was impeached for this abuse of power and for obstructing justice; didn’t testify in his impeachment hearing; sent Nancy Pelosi a letter denouncing the impeachment as "an unprecedented and unconstitutional abuse of power," which is Orwellian since he himself was guilty hundreds of times over for committing "an unprecedented and unconstitutional abuse of power”;

nominated Stephen Miller as Senior White House Advisor, his qualifications including being a racist white nationalist who spent his life advancing racist white nationalist theories; nominated Michael Flynn as National Security Advisor – his qualifications including being a disgraced general who got fired from Defense Intelligence Agency – despite knowing Flynn was being investigated for taking money from the Turkish government in exchange for favorable policy; nominated Rex Tillerson for Secretary of State, a guy who violated Russia sanctions while at Exxon; nominated Scott Pruitt to head the EPA, a guy who spent his life suing the EPA; nominated Rick Perry to lead the Department of Energy, a guy who once said, when running for president, that he wanted to eliminate the Department of Energy;

randomly brainstormed various “treatments” for Covid-19 live in a press conference, ending up suggesting that we might be able to bombard the virus with light inside the body or inject bleach, because that’s the type of thing that comes out of minds when brainstorming and that’s probably why he shouldn’t have done so during a live press conference;

has relentlessly continued to publicly repeat this accusation, despite the fact that both Democrats and Republicans have repeatedly said there is no evidence of this; ended an interview early when asked to produce some actual evidence of his allegations against Obama; stopped requiring visitor logs at the White House, without which Trump and White House officials could hold private meetings without oversight on visitor identity or affiliation, which actually makes a lot of sense in light of the rest of this;

was later caught on tape admitting that he knew the severity of the virus early in the pandemic, but intentionally misled the public by downplaying the threat; later admitted that he downplayed the threat, but insisted it was to “avoid a panic,” which is funny since everything he ever campaigns on is built on fear and panic; later turned around and denied that he mislead the public, despite the fact that it was on tape and he had admitted it earlier; said that he “takes no responsibility at all” for all the suffering from the federal government’s pitiful response, which would a terrible thing for a leader to say even if it were justified, which it isn’t; claimed, regarding the pandemic, that "nobody would have ever thought a thing like this could have happened," though his immediate three predecessors all diligently prepared for pandemics; sometimes even sabotaged our nation’s response, withholding or taking resources from states; stated that governors needed to be nice to him to receive federal help for the pandemic; appointed Mike Pence, who has no medical background, to lead the Coronavirus taskforce; refused to wear a mask in public or cease handshaking for months as the virus rapidly spread, modeling the worst possible behavior for Americans; claimed that an Obama-era rule was to blame for our inability to provide better Covid-19 testing, though such a rule did not exist; complained that Obama left them with no Covid-19 tests, though the virus didn't actually exist until Obama had long-since left office; started recommending various treatments for Covid-19, despite having no medical background; publicly continued to promote Hydroxychloroquine as a treatment for Covid-19, despite being contradicted by all the actual experts; removed Dr. Rick Bright from his position as the Director of the Department of Health and Human Services’ Biomedical Advanced Research and Development Authority, because Bright had some doubts on the use of Hydroxychloroquine as a Covid-19 treatment; has constantly fought with the CDC and Dr. Fauci and other health professionals on guidelines to fight the pandemic, always pushing to keep the economy open or to reopen quicker than recommended; kept insisting that schools should open in the fall against CDC guidelines; falsely claimed he, rather than the governors of the individual states, had total authority over reopening the economy; prevented the release of a CDC report advising Americans on when they could safely reopen the economy; banned Dr. Anthony Fauci from testifying before a House committee, because he didn't like Fauci's conclusions; ordered CDC Director Robert Redfield not to testify at a hearing on the reopening of schools; publicly called on protesters to challenge stay-at-home orders in multiple states, using rhetoric like "LIBERATE MICHIGAN"; commanded his administration to slow down our Covid-19 testing because, as he admitted out loud, more testing would mean more confirmed cases, which would make him look bad; assured us he was being serious after his aides tried to claim he was only joking when he told the administration to slow down Covid-19 testing; fought to keep states from getting billions of dollars of Covid-19 relief for testing and contact tracing; blamed Democratic governors for the lack of testing, with a serious face; has constantly blamed the WHO, China, Dr. Fauci, and President Obama for his own terrible response to the pandemic; claimed he responded well to the pandemic, stating that between 100,000 and 200,000 Covid-19 deaths would be "a very good job," and that up to 2.2 million would've died if he hadn't responded well; has continued to move the goalposts in his assessment of the number of deaths that he would consider "acceptable"; once said that Obama should resign for his response to an Ebola outbreak that killed two (2, literally) Americans, but claims his response to Covid-19 that has killed well over 100,000 times that number has been wonderful; has continued painting a rosy picture of Covid-19 in the US, despite the results that we see in front of our faces; obfuscated and outright censored Covid-19 data; has often publicly expressed doubt about the confirmed US death count due to Covid-19, suggesting the real figures are lower, when all experts agree that they are almost certainly higher, due to the fact that we couldn't test everyone; has never admitted any wrongdoing in his Covid-19 response nor displayed any regret for the untold suffering he caused; held an in-person campaign rally, without any regard for social distancing, in Tulsa, OK, and originally was going hold it on Juneteenth, the day of Black freedom, in a city that was the site of an infamous bombing of a Black community; changed the date after a backlash, but still held the rally; had those who attended his ill-advised campaign rally sign a waiver that would protect the Trump campaign if attendees contracted Covid-19 there; caused a local Covid-19 spike with his irresponsible Tulsa rally, a spike that probably claimed the life of Herman Cain; has contradicted all experts in maintaining that a Covid-19 vaccine would be ready by the end of 2020, perhaps in time for the election; simultaneously plays-down the threat of Covid-19 and yet pushes for a vaccine, to help him politically; knew that Russia was offering bounties to Taliban-linked militants to kill American soldiers, and in response did nothing; actually did worse than nothing about the Russian bounties on our troops because he continued promoting a pro-Russian agenda, diminishing our leadership in NATO and supporting their reentrance into the G8; claimed he didn’t know about the bounties because he wasn’t briefed, which is ludicrous; never discussed the bounties with Putin, and when asked why, falsely claimed that the bounties were "fake news"; takes credit for any good that happens in the universe and never admits responsibility for any bad; has made over 20,000 misleading or false statements in his first term; has had eight advisors who have been charged with crimes in just his first term; cloaks himself in the flag and paints himself at patriotic, yet tries to destroy everything that makes our constitutional republic great; using faux populist rhetoric typical of wannabe autocrats to gain favor with the white working class, the very people for whom he has nothing but disdain; is so awful that I needed to continue adding clauses to my initial draft in the roughly five-week period that it took me to put this piece together; is an abrasive, malicious, cruel, immoral, unethical, greedy, selfish, arrogant, narcissistic, callous, impulsive, resentful, confrontational, childish, temperamental, hypocritical, irrational, unscrupulous, extraordinarily dishonest, racist, sexist, transphobic, xenophobic, misogynistic, religiously bigoted, corrupt, autocratic, authoritarian, gaslighting, fungally-infected taint of a human being.

Edit, October 4th, 2020. Since I wrote this, Trump has been diagnosed with Covid-19. I don't wish ill on anyone, and I truly hope he gets well quickly. However, Trump is still as asshole.
