1. Trump has no public policy experience at all. Zero. Nada. The guy has spent 0 minutes to make (or even trying to make) compromises, better laws and regulations, negotiating with foreign leaders, etc. Obama or Palin were often criticized for the lack of experience, but the current POTUS had 8 years of state senator and 4 years of senator experience before he was elected, and even Palin at least had a little mayorship and governor experience. Not any other major party nominee ever had such a lack of experience. We are talking about the highest responsiblity job in the world. Voting for Trump is like choosing a random guy on the street to perform heart surgery for your mother. Tell me it’s not insane.

2. Trump is the candidate who lies most of the time way ahead. It’s utterly crazy to vote against politicians who you don’t trust anymore, and change it for someone who is even worse. It’s proven.

3. He lacks the basic temperament to be POTUS. He basically gets attention by bullying almost every moving entity, including his allies. Just look at this list.

4. Trump flip-flops in a never seen quantity. How can you trust someone, who changes his mind almost every day on something?

5. He is often cited as a successful businessman, but he inherited his money from his father (even got money to start his own business), and he missed about 16-17 billion USD, as he could have been worth 20 billion (instead of 3-4) by just investing in index funds.

6. Trump has a shockingly high number of business failures. What if he makes the mistakes he made many times again as a POTUS?

7. No wonder he hasn’t released his tax returns (in fact lied about why he didn’t do that), because it clearly showed how much of a huge failure he made (and used it to avoid paying taxes). Every major party nominee released his/her tax returns since the seventies.

8. Trump doesn’t “believe” in climate change by human activities, and wants to get back to fossil fuels. Why on Earth would you choose someone for POTUS who wants to go on damaging the environment?

9. It gets worse. He wants to step back from the Paris Agreement, which was signed by almost every country (192 and counting) on the planet. Do you really think he is smarter than each and everyone of the world leaders?

10. The more educated you are, the higher the chances you wouldn’t vote for Trump. Who is more likely to be more intelligent? People with or without collage/university degrees?

11. Every country on Earth has way lower support for Trump, than Clinton, except Russia (where people most likely support Trump, because his “leadership” would weaken NATO). Again, do you think you are smarter than the whole planet?

12. Even many of the experienced GOP leaders don’t support him, or even support Clinton over him. People like Condoleeza Rice, Colin Powell, the Bushes, Robert Gates, Fiorina, former Reagan officials, 14 Senators, 9 Governors, all but one of the former GOP POTUS nominees, and the list goes on. This is unprecedented, not without a reason. (Also unprecedented: only one in almost 100 big daily newspapers in the US supports him.)

13. Trump insulted veterans like John McCain or the parents of a fallen Muslim soldier, while he avoided serving in the military.

14. He insulted women all his life, just a couple of examples here.

15. Trump also insulted a neighbour of the US, and the largest minority group of the country in many cases.

16. By voting for Trump you are actually serving one of the biggest opponents of the US, Russia, to gain an edge over the US and its allies. No wonder the many links between Russia and the Trump campaign.

17. Trump already scams his own supporters, as he funnels back some of the donated campaign money to his own businesses.

18. He is a believer in many extremely stupid conspiracy theories.

19. Trump even went as low as mocking a reporter with disability.

20. He suggested to ban a whole religion members entering the US, almost 1,6 billion people, 20% of the whole population. Imagine being banned from a country just because you’re a Christian, Atheist, etc.

+1. Trump’s economic policy would be disastrous for the US and the world economy by doing isolationist and archaic steps back to a world that doesn’t exist anymore.

Each of these reasons alone would be enough to make any candidate unfit for presidency. Yes, it’s totally insane to vote for a guy like that.





Q&A

- No, you’re not necessarily an insane person if you vote for Trump, you’re just about to make one insane decision (probably because emotions shadow your rational thoughts). You can still change your mind (if you haven’t voted yet, or even if you’ve voted, but you’re in certain states).

- No, you’re not insane if you vote(d) for a Republican, like McCain, Romney, Dole, etc. even Bush, or Rubio, Cruz, Kasich, etc during the primaries. They had experience and the temperament to be POTUS. It doesn’t mean that they would have been or were a good POTUS, but they certainly fulfilled the minimal criteria. But you made an insane decision if you’ve voted for Ben Carson during the primaries, who had no experience in public policy making.

- Yes, you can make insane decisions, if you vote for a Democrat nominee, like John Wolfe Jr., who had no experience in public policy making, just lost bids for House seats.

- You’re not insane if you vote for any of the third party candidates.

- You’re not insane if you don’t vote at all. I’m not impressed at all either on any candidate.
