(ThyBlackMan.com) Donald Trump is bad news. If the Republican Party selects Donald Trump as their nominee for the president of these United States of America, in my humble opinion, he will not become the 45th president. He does not have the experience, the temperament, the respect for all people, the knowledge of domestic and foreign policies, the power of truth-telling, the fairness, nor does he even have the vision to “make America great again.” This man will further divide America; this man will fight everybody who disagrees with him; and this man will bully this country into Armageddon.
It is a sad commentary to know that in this 21st century, that Donald Trump can actually become the nominee for the Republican Party. To elect a man who clearly and purposefully tells “big lies” that he saw “thousands of Muslims cheering when the Twin Towers buildings were falling and on fire” after the horrific 9-11 attacks, would be a travesty. He tells these lies with no proof and repeats them after reputable news outlets and reporters have said this is not true.
How can the Republican Party nominate a man who consistently 
insults women? He calls them fat, ugly, stupid and distastefully mimics normal /functions unique to the female physiology. How can the Republican electorate nominate a man to lead this country who lambasts Hispanics, Latinos, African Americans, refugees, a P.O.W. hero, and led the “birther movement” against President Obama?
Donald Trump’s personality, his appeal and his divisive policies have reincarnated the likes of George C. Wallace, Bull Conner, Joe McCarthy, David Duke, etc. “The Donald” appeals to the worse side of us. Unfortunately, there is perhaps, 25 to 30 percent of the Republican electorate, who can and will stay with Trump, no matter what he says or does. He probably can call folks the N-word and continues to rise in the polls.
All of this is bad stuff, and any other person who has made these outrageous, atrocious, and disgraceful comments would have been long gone from the political process. But not Donald Trump. The more shameful, pitiful, notorious and inglorious his comments are, he advances higher in the polls. Trump’s candidacy really is a dark, sad and grave indication of where this country is headed in race relations and how low our civility has fallen.
December 1, 2015, was the 60th anniversary of the courageous act of Rosa Parks’ refusal to give up her bus seat to a White man. Sunday, December 6, 2015, was the 150th anniversary of the 13th Amendment that abolished Black slavery. Now, we have a candidate by the name of Donald Trump as the leader in the Republican presidential primary aspiring to become the leader of this country and the world. America, it is praying time!
Fellow Americans, this is a terrible day in our country. My friends, it is true: free speech is a part of our freedom, but “Trump speech” should be a part of our past. It is a catastrophe that many of my friends in the Republican Party perhaps, have laryngitis, and will allow Donald Trump to destroy the party.
Let me be very clear: Donald Trump will not become the next president of this country. You cannot make fun of the disabled and handicapped; you cannot demean women, immigrants, minorities, the frail, the weak and play on people’s fears; and thank God, you cannot bully your way to the White House. He may win the Republican nomination in the primary, but he will not get enough votes to win in the general election; and to the Donald ‘s surprise, most people in this great America are not “dumb, ignorant nor stupid.” If Donald Trump should manage to win the Republican nomination, then let me be the first to say: “Congratulations! President Hillary Clinton!”
