There are many reasons not to admire (much less vote for) Donald Trump. He lies – about everything, apparently. He’s pretty clearly racist. He’s all about himself, to the point of being more of a mob boss than a politician. He basically is a cult leader, giving “permission” to so many people who don’t care much about ethics and morals.
Aside from all this, he’s just so damned grumpy. Think about it – when do we see him laugh, tell a joke, or even smile? When does he say something upbeat, about anything. When does he demonstrate that he can laugh at himself, one of the characteristics my dad instilled in me while growing up. I can’t think of a single time when I have watched him and thought – gee, that was a nice move.
Aside from that – he doesn’t have a dog. Sorry, i don’t trust a President who doesn’t have a pet. Just kidding really, as I don’t even know if Kamala Harris has one…though it seems clear from the press that Tim Walz does.
Vote for a grump? A grump who has recruited a weirdo? Not a chance.
