Still waiting...

Gloria asked me to tell her HOW I KNEW that Trump was bad.

I replied with the list below and I'm still waiting for Gloria or anyone else to respond, either to query any of the statements or to suggest a valid reason why any sane person would seriously consider voting for this man, even if only a fraction of the statements are true.

Harambe 'respected' me so much that he said he wouldn't even read the list because I didn't provide sources. My own feeling is that the vast majority of my 'claims' are so well-known and have never been debunked that they don't need sources, but if you really want to query any of them and are too lazy to google them yourself, then I'll go do the digging for you.

NB these are just the things I came up with off the top of my head. There are more - many more!

1. Documented stories from his family members that he was a nasty little bully from a young age.
2. The famous bone spurs which allowed him to skip the draft. notably he could easily prove that story false by providing X-Rays.
3. Association with the monstrous Jeffrey Epstein over a number of years including confirmation that he travelled seven times (at least) on Epstein's private plane. Ironically he and his campaign staff were back on that same plane last week.
"I’ve known Jeff for fifteen years. Terrific guy," Trump told New York Magazine in 2002 for a story headlined "Jeffrey Epstein: International Moneyman of Mystery." "He’s a lot of fun to be with. It is even said that he likes beautiful women as much as I do, and many of them are on the younger side. No doubt about it — Jeffrey enjoys his social life."
There are multiple photos of Trump and melania partying with Epstein and Ghislaine Maxwell

3. His own wife made a police report accusing him of rape, Now which one was it - he's had so many. Oh yes, Ivana, the one who mysteriously fell down the stairs and died from blunt force injuries, She would be the one who is buried in an unmarked grave on one of his golf courses. And yes I know the rape charge was withdrawn - strategically as part of the divorce settlement.

4. Trump mocked a disabled New York Times reporter in front of a crowd, saying, "Now the poor guy, you ought to see this guy," before jerking his arms around and holding his right hand at an angle. He imitated the reporter, saying, "‘Ah, I don’t know what I said! I don’t remember!’"

5. Said (on more than one occasion) when praising his daughter Ivanka's looks that if she weren't his daughter he would be dating her.

6. Numerous hateful, racist and xenophobic comments about Mexicans, immigrants, and people from shithole countries.

7. Boasted of grabbing women by the pussy.

8. refused to accept the results of the 2020 election and incited an insurrection. Even if you dispute that, he sat in the White House for three hours watching the riot unfold on TV and did nothing

9. Abused the pardon power to get a number of his cronies off serious criminal charges.

10. Convicted in court of massive business fraud - more than half a billion dollars - enough to send most people to jail for a long time.

11. Yet to be adjudicated, but the evidence is certainly very strong - stole national secrets, stored them in insecure locations, moved them around, hid them from investigators, lied about having them, pressured his lawyers to lie about them too.

Minor stuff really.

12. Made up childish nicknames for his political rivals.

13. When neo-Nazis marched at Charlotteville chanting "Jews shall nor replace us!" Trump said there were very fine people on both sides.

14. called the Georgia Secretary of State and pressured him to 'Just 'find' 11,780 votes.

15. Circumstantial but hey, birds of a feather, about a dozen of his cronies and former officials have been found guilty of serious crimes.

16. Also circumstantial I guess - out of 44 former Cabinet Secretaries 40 have refused to endorse him in this election. I wonder why?

17. Downplayed COVID, mocked mask-wearing and generally mismanaged the COVID response, potentially causing hundreds of thousands of deaths.

18. Insulted war hero John McCain. "I like people who weren't captured.

19 Demeaned US servicemen as suckers and losers.

20. Claimed the Medal of Freedom (civilian) was much better than the Medal of Honor (military) because MoH recipients were shot up or dead. The recipient of the MoF was a major donor to his campaign!

21. Trump denounced Megyn Kelly, a respected journalist as a "lightweight," and notoriously said there was "blood coming out of her wherever" during her unblinking questioning of the then-GOP hopeful.

22. Offensive and racist remarks about the Gold Star Khan family whose son had been killed in Afghanistan.

23. Claiming that a native-born judge was treating him unfairly because 'He's a Mexican.'

24. Virtually the whole Trump family are not allowed to set up or operate any charity in new York because, you know, they just take the money raised for themselves.

25. Oh dear, I haven't really scratched the surface yet. Did I mention the fraudulent university, the stiffing of contractors, the refusal to rent apartments to people of colour, the fact that he is a fat, sneering, smug, narcissistic POS, the lies, the goddamn lies the pretend religiosity...
