I will start with this, I love you, brother Mike. I love the way you speak the truth and so eloquently for all of us who feel the way you do about the sorriest excuse for a presidential candidate in the history of the United States of America.

He is a joke and the biggest shameful political figure to embarrass us in the eyes of all the people in the world. Do you know what they are thinking of us? I'm afraid to imagine it.

I am certain that if Donald won, we would have WWIII before the end of next year.

He is a horrible man but whoever votes for a rapist ignorant bigot like him is even worse. How can anyone consider a man who can't even put a decent sentence together? A three-year-old has a bigger vocabulary than trump. Heck, that toddler could do a better job as a president than trump would.

He exasperates me and makes me want to punch him in the face every time he opens his dirty mouth.

I want to copy and paste this essay to my Facebook page and share it with my kids and friends. I'm so proud of you, my good friend.

I would vote for you in a heartbeat. You have the intelligence and good heart of an excellent president. A president like John Kennedy, with the heart of gold and the big cojones to lead our great nation with pride and dignity.

I love you, brother Mike.

I do agree with most of what you say. I support his policies for the most part. But his demeanor is insulting. When I was a young woman a long time ago, I worked in a department where I was the only woman among one hundred men. And never did I hear what I heard from Trump. Yes they did make advances but nothing like what Trump displayed in the video.

Hi Mikey, what a great essay this is. In a few hours America and the world will know whether that maniac will take over the reigns. I can't believe this is happening. I fear for the world, but I also fear for my own blood. I have two grandchildren who I'd hoped would have had a chance to live in peace. I have three young nephews in Massachusetts I have the same hope for. I'm European but half American by blood. I have a vested interest. Anyway, we'll know after tomorrow. I'm holding my breath. All the best. Ulla:))

I agree 100 percent with this essay. It seems that people are allowing their hate to cloud common sense.

I like how you went point by point on all the horrible things he has said. He represent people who were ashamed to show how much they hate their fellow humans beings. People are shocked at friends and family members who are brain washed by that fool. I'm crossing my fingers that America has not lost its mind and made that man-child our President. I'm not giving you six stars because I agree with you. I'm giving it because you were able to express your opinion and lay out Trump's madness with explicit examples and calm rebuttal.

I hope your apologies are accepted by everyone because you sure as Hell let 'em have where it might get some thinking. It is Tuesday, five am, 8-11-16 there are not many more sleeps until every form of noise parading creations hit the airwaves and the whole world will watch and listen, speculate and boo, cheer, scream their way to the final count.
I live in Australia. Even here in this colonial backwater we have listened and cringed at Trump mania. I fear if he gets in WW3 won't be too far behind his acceptance speech. May God help us all. Regards Mabaker

Donald Trump is a total waste of human skin. He is abhorrent to women to say the least. He doesn't like people in general unless they are tens in his judgement, of which by the way he has so little of. I must agree with your thoughts here one hundred percent. A vote for Donald Trump is a vote for the degradation of society as a whole. If he wants to build a wall, let him build them around his buildings. The last wall that was built to keep people out was in Berlin, and we all know what that was for... John

First, this is not a Non-fiction Essay. As your notes correctly points out, this is an 'opinion' piece. At best it should list as commentary, as you provide no support for things you state in the body. You list accusations as facts without any evidence. I don't fault the writing on its bias. You make it clear you are writing from a Liberal POV, this is seen as you list women and minorities only as victims.
for example:
"I admit, some men are pigs. I've known many a man who lied about an encounter with a woman."

Can and are not some women PIGS too in your world?

Is sex between a boss and an intern allowed in your place of business? I bet it is not. Would you care to talk about the balance of power?

Do people other than white males, do, say racist things. Are all illegal immigrants saints? Are the all MS-13 illegals in prison their because of racism?

Does a President 'not' have a constitutional responsibility to protect the citizen from foreign threats?


I would take out the section about the TV show. It is 'TV' if anyone thinks that is real, should they be voting at all?

This is a structurally well written biased rant (your were honest about that), but be honest. It is not an Essay.

To begin with you are probably about my age. Are we not lucky that when we were 16, they did not have smart phones with cameras that would have caught every stupid thing we did? Anyway I have taken your tack on explaining why I do not support Trump and I have been roundly trashed for repeating things he has said as a reason. Anyway I have now written it all off as mass hysteria or something like that. After it is over and done, people will wake up and say I did what? Anyway I support you.

My vote is for your for standing up to this jackass and putting him in his place where he belongs, behind bars and never to manhandle anyone else the rest of his like.

Good work, Mikey. I'm an independent, so I don't find any fault in anything you've said. I try to look at the issues in a non-partisan way. Trump is not the person I want representing me in any level of government, let alone the Presidency.

Take care,
Russell
