Donald Trump Is The Worst Possible Person To Become President
Telegraph.co.uk

Growing up I've never paid attention to politics. Didn't care for it, nor did it interest me. My dad got his degree in political science and he would always watch CNN. I would hear him yell and scream at the TV and I didn't understand why. He's a pretty dramatic person and I would always think to myself in the midst of his yelling that it's not that serious.

I beg to differ now because I understand how important it is for the right person to serve in office. Now I'm paying attention, now I find myself constantly staying up to date as much as I can with this presidential campaign. Why? Because the GOP frontrunner for the new presidential candidate is Donald Trump. Besides his disrespectful, ignorant and rude supporters, the rest of us are wondering.. is this really happening? How did this man make it so far? How does he have a chance in running America? And most importantly, who the hell is voting for this guy?!

When I first heard he was running for president, I thought it was a joke. Well, now this joke has become a worrisome reality. Donald Trump publicly says the most absurd and ridiculous things known to man. First off, let's talk about the fact that Donald Trump wants to build a wall on the border of Mexico to stop immigrants from coming in. I'm not Hispanic, but I was offended for them. (Not that he treats my people any better.) My initial thought was the Mexican culture brings us delicious tacos, burritos, elote, fajitas, etc. How does anyone have the audacity to not only say such a thing, but prevent more wonderful food from coming into America?!

After one of the worst terror attacks that happened in Paris, Trump says that America shouldn't allow Syrian refugees into our country for their safety. At such a devastating time for Syrians, that's something that should not have been said, but I wasn't shocked that it came from his mouth.

He demonizes Muslims and minorities are removed from his rallies. Just this past week, a woman by the name of Shiya Nwanguma was assaulted and harassed by white supremacists at a Trump rally. Black students at another Trump rally at Valdosta State University were asked to leave for no reason. The very place where they get educated. I'm sorry, but if you are a black woman or man that supports Donald Trump, you are not a brother or sister of mine. Let's not forget to mention his dad was arrested with KKK members for fighting with police. The same dad that gave him a small loan of a million dollars. *rolls eyes*

I can go on a rant about Donald Trump's bigotry but you guys get the point. All in all, what I'm trying to say is we can not let Donald Trump win this election. We can't go from Barack Obama, one of the best Presidents to serve, in my opinion, to a racist. I refuse to stay in America if Trump wins. God forbid that he does but if so, I will be relocating to Canada. Let me know if you would like to come with. Not only is healthcare free but they welcome Islamics, have a low rate of crime and I heard crowds of people welcome Syrian refugees with open arms at the airport. Sounds like a great place to me! Well, anywhere without Trump constantly speaking nonsense is more than a great place.

New year, new semester, not the same old thing. This semester will be a semester to redeem all the mistakes made in the previous five months.

1. I will wake up (sorta) on time for class.

Let's face it, last semester you woke up with enough time to brush your teeth and get to class and even then you were about 10 minutes late and rollin' in with some pretty unfortunate bed head. This semester we will set our alarms, wake up with time to get ready, and get to class on time!

And so it begins.

1. Walk in motivated and ready to rock

Camping out at the library is not for the faint of heart. You need to go in as a warrior. You usually have brought supplies (laptop, chargers, and textbooks) and sustenance (water, snacks, and blanket/sweatpants) since the battle will be for an undetermined length of time. Perhaps it is one assignment or perhaps it's four. You are motivated and prepared; you don’t doubt the assignment(s) will take time, but you know it couldn’t be that long.
