Many politicians have big egos with an attraction, power, and fame. History has shown this to be true for both political parties. Many have cheated or lied, and most of them, when exposed, have lost their jobs or walked away in shame. American voters want honesty in a president. They want a president to follow the law and present a positive perception of America to everyone in the country and worldwide. They hope the president will be dedicated to the Constitution and create a message that unites people, not divides them. They want a president who puts the country ahead of self-interests.
A PRESIDENT SHOULD EMBODY STELLAR CHARACTER BECAUSE IT INFLUENCES POLICY-MAKING THAT AFFECTS HOW THE COUNTRY FUNCTIONS. REASONS A PRESIDENT SHOULD BE HELD TO HIGH CHARACTER STANDARDS INCLUDE:
● Character discourages lying and cheating
● People of high character are compassionate
● A person with character can be trusted
● Character discourages criminality
● Character decreases the impulse to abuse people verbally, physically, or sexually.
● People of character can enjoy the success of others without jealousy or retribution
● People of character don’t seek to control or diminish others
● People with character are fair, honest, and can be humble
A sign of questionable character is when a leader hires people based on loyalty oaths, not qualifications for the job. Another sign of character flaw is when a leader minimizes or defends dysfunctional or criminal behaviors in the people he hires or befriends them.
Nobody is perfect. However, when people of character screw up, they admit it, they apologize, make amends, and stop their negative behavior patterns.
DONALD TRUMP HAS SOLD A FALSE NARRATIVE TO HIS FOLLOWERS ABOUT BEING A VICTIM OF WITCHHUNTS AND LIES BY THE MEDIA, DEMOCRATS, AND REPUBLICANS WHO WITNESSED HIS MANY CRIMES AND DANGEROUS IMPULSES. THE TRUTH: SMART, PATRIOTIC PEOPLE CAUGHT HIM COMMITTING CRIMES AND VIOLATING HIS OATH OF OFFICE.
Trump’s current actions seek to cede him full control of the courts, universities, freedom of speech, freedom of the press, and all aspects of the economy. Had he not been vicious, racist, reckless, law-breaking, and convicted by juries of his peers for federal and civil crimes, he may have taken the opportunity to be a great president for all Americans. INSTEAD, HE CHOSE TO PURSUE AN AUTHORITARIAN PATH. HE IS NO VICTIM OF ANYONE BUT HIMSELF. HE CANNOT STOP SAYING AND DOING CRAZY THINGS.
