Dump Trump

In all honesty, I don't understand how Donald Trump is even in the presidency. It is extremely appalling to me that he is still up and running. He has proven himself unworthy of a presidential candidate long ago when he stated racist, sexist, homophobic, and other discriminating statements.

Recently there was a terrorist attack on Istanbul's Ataturk Airport, killing at least 44 people and injuring over a hundred. During an interview, he endorsed tactics that can be categorized as torture, saying "we an have our disagreements, but we're going to have to get much tougher as a country. We're going to have to be a lot shaper and we're going to have to do things the are unthinkable almost." Reading this quote already scares me and inches towards abuse of power with the rights of the Constitution.

Regarding the attack at Istanbul, Trump thought the need to fight "fire with fire" in a battle of terrorism. I don't believe this is reasonable, and this also insinuates fear in me just due to his thought processes as what he would do as a president. On top of his terrible reputation, , for the terms of terrorism, he has repeatedly pledged to "ban all Muslims." This is unbelievable, and millennial really need to realize the downfall of the United States if Trump does get elected. The crazy part is that he actually has a chance, and it is so important for voters to understand that this cannot happen before it is too late.
