Why Do I Dislike Trump?

I have written many posts here recently about Trump. I call him The Putz because he is one. A Putz is an idiot, nincompoop, blockhead, and buffoon. Yeah, not too smart basically. He is devious but not intelligent. Here is the first time I saw him on television: In a 1990 interview Barbara Walters did with Donald J. Trump he was dishonest about him being a successful businessman with this great new deal that he had in the works. But Barbara had receipts that showed he was being dishonest. He enjoyed showing her opulent gold-trimmed apartment he owned in NYC and I remember thinking how stuck on himself he was. He talked about the presidency in another interview in 1987. In August 1990 he was facing financial trouble with his Taj Mahal casino, his airline, and, Manhattan developments. At that time he was promoting his new book "Surviving at the Top" but Walters questioned his survival when he was on the verge of bankruptcy at that time. The interview summed up many facets of his personality that he is still dealing with such as his less-than-positive attitude about the press, his lack of honesty in the admission of his mistakes, and, his stormy relationship with facts. Nothing has changed several decades later. This is the first of several posts about him and why I dislike him and feel he is bad for our country. It is 60 more days until the Presidential election. It is very important that we all get out and vote. Please remind your friends, family, and neighbors. The picture is from the Washington Post.com

What makes you think he's a putz? Because you can call him that all day, but you don't give any personal reasons to why he is one. I can name several reasons as to why Biden is a complete Moron who doesn't give a rats @ss what happens to this country, but Trump has done amazing things for small business owners, and for the greater good of the United States.

@Ghostlady ........Because he doesn't do good. He is a liar and a cheat. Harris doesn't run from interviews. I am certainly sorry that you have such a twisted way of looking at the truth. Trump wants to take women's rights away and do away with our constitution. Harris hasn't flipped-flopped on anything. I don't know where you get your ideas. You really need to do some fact-checking and see how much of what Trump says is not true. I certainly hope that you are not going to vote for him. I for one want to live in a free society and would not vote for someone who wants to take that away from us. I hope you will spend the next couple of months doing some checking into what Trump says and that you decide to vote for democracy.

@thislittlepennyearns You didn't read about the B. Walters interview? You haven't noticed his treatment of the disabled? You as a woman don't notice his nasty words for women?

We do not hear about the things he does that are good....we USED to, but since he ran for President, everyone that loved him...hates him. LOL And forget the Media...they are bought and sold by the Democratic Party. Today, they took one little section out of a good speech by Vance, and made it sound like all he said was School shooting are a fact of life. Only ONE paper recanted the story about the speech...ONE! I find it interesting that Trump goes to Liberal TV stations, sit down interviews, but Harris RUNS from the press...even the Friendly Press. LOL ONE Interview since she became a candidate, and it wasn't even LIVE, it was taped. LOL Can't wait until Tuesday..MAYBE we will hear WHY she has flip flopped on every policy she USED to support.

We in NJ and NY have known for decades what a horrible human being and business person he is. People not from this area bought into the lies and the image cultivated by The Apprentice. They also like him because he encourages them to be the ignorant racist idiots that they've had to hide for so long. Look at all of his failed businesses. Look at all of the former members of his administration who have spoken out against him.

I don't live in the US but I have my fingers crossed for Kamala. Trump just wants to win for his own ego, he doesn't care about the people
