Dear Trump Fan:

What appeals to you about the man? Is it his sexism and the endless demeaning remarks he’s made about women? Is it his racism? The fact that he’s embarrassingly thin-skinned? Is it the way he made penis comparison remarks during a national debate? Is it the fact that he repeatedly dodged the draft during the Vietnam War because of heels spurs, an ailment this 70 year old obese man no longer seems to suffer from? Is it the way he seems to lust after his own daughter? His egomania perhaps? Is it his mindboggling exaggeration or serial lying? What could it be? Is it the fact that he seems to get all his information from the National Enquirer, random websites and “what he’s hearing from others?” Just what exactly? Perhaps it’s his glaringly evident lack of knowledge as to the workings of government. Maybe the way he – a draft dodger – mocked a war hero who spent years in captivity and who was endlessly tortured? What exactly? Is it his penchant for violence against those who protest his appearance and – now that it well appears he is going to lose and lose big – he’s now inviting his followers to serve as unofficial “observers” at polling stations, echoing Jim Crow of days gone by? Perhaps it’s the veiled assassination threats he made against his opponent? Again. Just what is it about him? Is it the way he “tells it like it is” but when he lets fly another asinine comment, he backtracks by saying he was merely being sarcastic, oblivious to this glaring contradiction? Is it how he brags he would do “way worse than water-boarding?” Just what exactly? Perhaps it’s the way he touts his ability to create jobs, said assertion flying in the face of his numerous corporate bankruptcies? What? Please, tell me. Is it the way he openly insults the very people he would have to work with if he ever became president, virtually ensuring further governmental gridlock? Is that it? Is it his promise to release his tax returns then revoking that very promise? Please enlighten me.

BILL
