15 Reasons You Shouldn't Vote for Trump

He's a liar, and here's proof.

15 Reasons You Shouldn't Vote for Trump

Donald Trump is very close to becoming President, which is a terrifying thought to me and many others. I know Hillary Clinton has her faults, but Trump would be an absolute disaster. Here's fifteen reasons not to vote for Trump come November.

1. He's bankrupted four of his businesses.

You can now find three of the filings online.

2. He's criticized Hillary for Bill's affairs, even though he openly cheated on his wife in the past.

Don't believe me? Check this out.

3. He scammed thousands of people through Trump University.

Now, 150 of them are suing him for fraud.

4. He bragged he now had the tallest building in New York after 9/11.

What makes this even more pathetic is that it wasn't even true.

5. His recently released records prove that he's avoided paying taxes for a long time.

Not to mention the countless financial failures.

6. The wall isn't going to happen.

It is literally impossible.

7. He used money from the Trump Foundation for personal expenses.

Yep--he took money from his own charity, using some of it to buy a 20 foot tall portrait of himself.

8. His tax plan would destroy the deficit and make the rich even wealthier.

Meanwhile, taxes for working and middle-class families would increase.

9. He constantly flip flops on his positions.


In fact, NBC counted more than 15 policy changes on immigration alone since the beginning of his campaign.

10. He's shown interest in using nuclear weapons.

He even refused to rule out bombing Europe.

11. He made fun of a disabled man.

The man, a reporter from the New York Times, has a chronic condition.

12. He's made so many sexist remarks, it's almost unbelievable.

He's called women fat, slobs, pigs, and much worse.

13. Not to mention his blatant racism.

From refusing to condemn white supremacists to canonically discriminating against people of color, Trump's bigotry cannot be denied.

14. He lied 87 times in 5 days.

Somehow, this doesn't surprise me.

15. The Trump Tapes.

I'm sure that, by now, everybody has heard the lewd comments Trump made while talking to Billy Bush in 2005, including that he grabbed women "by the p***y".

Friendship. It's defined as the state of being attached to another person by feelings of affection or personal regard, but what really is friendship? Is it that occasional hallway talk with that one person who always manages to cheer you up? Is it that relationship you have with someone where they can be gone for a long period of time, but when they come back, it's like they never left? Is it spending every waking hour with someone, and knowing every detail about their life? Is it the relationship that's filled with fighting, but filled with even more resolution? I've learned that it's all of these things, and every friendship is different. It's a beautifully dysfunctional mess that should always be cherished and never be taken for granted.
