Donald Trump, You Are Literally The Worst

Donald, why are you the way that you are?

Donald Trump, You Are Literally The Worst

In a recent late-night Twitter rant, Donald Trump has managed to secure his claim to the throne as the worst presidential candidate in the history of America. We are all familiar with his raging outbursts, racist comments, and aggressively offensive demeanor, but apparently even the worst can get nastier.

On Friday, September 30, in the wee hours of the early morning/late night, Trump took to Twitter to publicly demoralize 1996 Miss Universe Alicia Machado (the first Miss Universe titleholder after Trump became owner of the Miss Universe Organization) after Hillary Clinton mentioned his past of public abuse towards the former pageant queen.

Machado, a Venezuela-born woman, has been under Trump’s harsh criticism due to her weight gain after her reign as Miss Universe. Trump claims Machado’s weight gain has created significant and consequential issues for the pageant system, and even cited her as his “worse Miss U” in one of his rancid tweets.

Machado has recently opened up about her history with Trump, stating he would often “play around with her” and call her “Miss Piggy” or “Miss Housekeeping." And soon after Machado’s weight gain, Trump organized for reporters to watch her work out at the gym. He even threatened to take her crown from her because of the "issues" she caused for the pageant's image as an organization. While these recollections of former Miss Universe happened years ago, Trump’s nightmarish behavior seems to be exactly the same to this day (as proven by his Twitter escapades).

Trump’s tweets not only attacked Machado, but Clinton herself for trying to use his past with Machado as a point of weakness for his character. In the last tweet of Trump’s tirade trifecta, he not only calls Machado “disgusting," but he also urges Clinton and his 12 million Twitter followers to watch Machado’s “sex tape and past."

I didn’t know part of Trump’s campaign trail was to highlight the mistakes of previous pageant queens in an effort to validate his abominable behavior. Apparently, attacking women’s appearances, citing their physical changes as “major problems” and feeding off the faltering of others is the only way Trump can find credibility for himself.

The political debate has gotten rather petty, and I think we can all agree. Whether it is Trump’s constant attacks on women’s appearances or racist insinuations, or Clinton’s attacks on Trump’s inadequacy to serve an entire nation (which is not a false statement), this presidential campaign race is one for the books. Now all political affiliations aside, Trump’s recent actions have even caused second-guessing among his strongest supporters.

The most notable low blow Trump has pulled out is mentioning the infamous Monica Lewinsky situation regarding Clinton’s husband and former President of the United States, Bill Clinton. Despite being aggressively warned to stay away from this topic, Trump could not help himself to a cheap shot. Typical.

“Hillary Clinton was married to the single greatest abuser of women in the history of politics,” Trump told The Times.

Hmm, that’s funny, Donald. I didn’t know she was married to you?

“Hillary was an enabler, and she attacked the women who Bill Clinton mistreated afterward. I think it's a serious problem for them,” Trump continued to say. So Hillary is an “enabler” of her husband’s infidelity? Wow, it seems like damned if you do and damned if you don’t with this man (reason #102873209317 why a physical brick would be a better president than Donald Trump).

Lastly, Trump said, “She’s nasty, but I can be nastier than she can ever be,” in regards to his presidential opponent. I don’t know about you, but I’ll be moving to Australia if he becomes the next president.

Trump has recently been focusing on attracting more female voters and younger supporters to the polls, but after this irreparable stunt on one of the most used social media platforms in this world, I think it’s safe to say women will be far from checking his name off this November.

I am 18-years-old, and this is the first presidential race that I am eligible to vote in. I can personally attest to the disappointment of new voters everywhere that a man as despicable as Donald Trump is even a considerable possibility for this country’s next president.

I've been super busy lately with school work, studying, etc. Besides the fact that I do nothing but AP chemistry and AP economics, I constantly think of stupid questions that are almost impossible to answer. So, maybe you could answer them for me, and if not then we can both wonder what the answers to these 15 questions could be.

To My Loving Boyfriend,

  • Thank you for all that you do for me
  • Thank you for working through disagreements with me
  • Thank you for always supporting me
  • I appreciate you more than words can express
  • You have helped me grow and become a better person
  • I can't wait to see where life takes us next
  • I promise to cherish every moment with you
  • Thank you for being my best friend and confidante
  • I love you and everything you do

To start off, here's something I don't say nearly enough: thank you. Thank you, thank you, thank you from the bottom of my heart. You do so much for me that I can't even put into words how much I appreciate everything you do - and have done - for me over the course of our relationship so far. While every couple has their fair share of tiffs and disagreements, thank you for getting through all of them with me and making us a better couple at the other end. With any argument, we don't just throw in the towel and say we're done, but we work towards a solution that puts us in a greater place each day. Thank you for always working with me and never giving up on us.

Hauppauge is home to people of all kinds. We always have new families joining the community but honestly, the majority of the town is filled with people who never leave (high school alumni) and elders who have raised their kids here. Around the town, there are some just some landmarks and places that only the people of Hauppauge will ever understand the importance or even the annoyance of.
