America deserves the best in its President, not a whiny, weak leader like Trump
Trump is desperate to stay out of jail. During his latest cult stop in Ohio, he said there would be a bloodbath if he didn't secure a second term.1 He insinuated that elections would cease to exist in America if he lost. Simply declaring that you are a victim of a witch hunt and blaming others for your actions shows how weak you are as a leader.
In this country, when someone is accused of a crime, they are innocent until proven guilty. Then, they must be responsible for defending themselves with witnesses, testimony, evidence, etc. With 91 criminal charges2, Trump can not defend himself because he has no defense.
Trump wants to emulate authoritarian leaders like Vladimir Putin, Viktor Orban, and Kim Jong Un.3 Trump wants to pardon his cult followers who committed political violence4, and he continues to launch attacks on people of color, women, immigrants, and people with disabilities.
He cast migrants as threats to American citizens — claiming without evidence that other countries were emptying their prisons of "young people" and sending them across the border. "I don't know if you call them 'people,' in some cases," he said. "They're not people, in my opinion." He later referred to them as "animals." 5
America deserves the best in its President, not a whiny, weak leader like Trump.
To lead America, you must love and respect all who call her home. The former President as a candidate has made it clear that if elected, he will move quickly to punish his enemies and embolden racism, xenophobia, Islamophobia, antisemitism, homophobia, misogyny, sexism, ageism, ableism, sizeism, elitism, and bigotry.
Make no mistake, if Trump is elected President, he will pardon himself, imprison enemies, and destroy freedom and justice around the world. Here is the list of Republicans who worked for Trump who are not endorsing him because they believe he is a clear and present danger to our democracy:
His Vice President, Mike Pence6
His U.N. Ambassador, Nikki Haley
His Chief of Staff, Gen. John Kelly
His National Security Advisor, John Bolton
His National Security Advisor, H.R. McMaster
His Defense Secretary, Mark Esper
His Defense Secretary, Gen. James Mattis
His Attorney General, Bill Barr
His Secretary of State, Rex Tillerson
From his days in the 2016 campaign to now, Donald Trump has repeatedly shown a desire to be subservient to Putin and Russia's expansion into Europe. The Party of Putin threatens all of us. There is nothing that he will not say or do to keep himself in power and prop up Russia. Trump has demonstrated a strong desire to be an authoritarian despot focused on political retribution, contempt, hostility, misinformation, and the erosion of the rule of law and civil liberties.
Trump is a clear and present danger to the American people, democracy, our rights and freedoms, and our national security. Our national security, the rule of law, and our rights and freedoms are all under attack. We must push back and actively challenge candidate Trump and the party that supports him.
Now is the time for all good people to speak up for democracy.

Yes and we all know who the best person for the job is. So make sure you vote for our current President.
Trump has Frontotemporal Dementia and is an incompetent and dangerous man. He has no moral boundaries, doesn’t give a fig about the American Dream or Experiment and only cares about his personal gain and profit and avoiding prison by any means. He is calling for us to engage in civil war. He and his regime and his planned reign of terror must be stopped. Vote! He is a danger and must not win.
