Well, here we are-- 100 days into arguably the worst presidency this country has ever been subjected to. For those who voted for Trump under the guise of changes taking place, these past 3 months have been nothing but a series of disappointments. The rest of us have been holding our breaths and preparing for the next temper tantrum that could potentially launch us into World War III. But no matter what end of the political spectrum you lie on, there is clear evidence to prove that Trump is still completely unqualified to be Commander in Chief. Before the election, I wrote a piece called "50 Reasons Donald Trump is Unfit to be President". All 50 of those reasons still stand and now, unfortunately, there are many more reasons that have come to light. Here is a non-exhaustive list of 100 more reasons Trump is still unfit to lead this country.
1. He has kept nearly none of his campaign promises
2. The American Health Care Act proposal was a complete failure
3. Which is a good thing, ultimately, as it would leave 24 million people without coverage
4. The wall is not being built (also a good thing, IMO)
5. His cabinet is made up of buffoons with very little relevant political experience
6. The members of his cabinet possess the equivalent combined wealth of ⅓ of the country
7. They are also full of conflicts of interest over major issues such as environmental protection and education
8. A climate change denier is in charge of the Environmental Protection Agency
9. The proposed head of the Labor Department has been violating labor laws for his entire career (He is no longer being considered)
10. Ben Carson has been appointed the Director of Housing and Urban Defense, despite claiming himself that he is unqualified for the job
11. A conspiracy theorist that propagated numerous myths, including one that claimed that the Clintons were running a child sex ring, has top security clearance
12. Sean Spicer made some painfully insensitive, historically inaccurate comments about the Holocaust
13. Trump still hasn’t released his tax returns
14. He’s under FBI investigation for potentially being tied to Russia
15. He has been accused of sexual assault or harassment by at least 12 women
16. He claimed to be immune from being investigated, simply because he’s president
17. Spoiler alert, he’s not
18. He appointed Ivanka to a government position and gave her security clearance that she is completely unqualified for
19. He has also invited her to closed-door conversations with foreign nations and then immediately established Trump Organizations in those countries
20. He appointed his son-in-law, who has no government experience as an advisor
21. Trump invited his sons, the inheritors of Trump Organization, to a dinner he attended with major Silicon Valley figures
22. These past 4 are all conflicts of interest
23. They’re also known as nepotism, which is strictly forbidden
24. He is still maintaining control (and collecting income from) his businesses
25. His wife and son are living in NYC, which is costing taxpayers $50 million per year and is completely unnecessary
26. He has given the army unprecedented control over decision-making
27. He doesn’t know what he’s talking about-- claiming we bombed Iraq, not Syria
28. He also hasn’t taken a history class in a very long time
29. He was asked about Tennessee and then went on a tangent praising Andrew Jackson and claiming that there was no reason for the Civil War
Also, Fact Check: Andrew Jackson died 16 years before the Civil War started and personally owned hundreds of slaves

43. When judges opposed the ban, Trump attacked them, which is unconstitutional
44. The proposed wall between the US and Mexico would not be any more than a waste of resources

47. He accused the Obama administration of wiretapping his phones-- a criminal act that the FBI dismissed as baseless
