14 Donald Trump Quotes Not Suitable For A President To Make

When it comes to the 2016 presidential election, it seems difficult to talk about any of the matters at hand without eventually shifting focus to Donald Trump's bid. Although some believe Trump is making a mockery of the office of the presidency, his bid is a very real one. He's the presumptive Republican nominee, and has garnered support from all across the country. Many find this hard to believe after thinking his bid wasn't even serious when he first announced it. However, the possibility of Trump as president is a very real one.

The one problem that seems to be plaguing Trump is his (rather large) mouth. There have been several instances where he definitely could have taken control of the race, but a comment of his raised enough eyebrows for people to have second thoughts about endorsing him.

Let's take a look at a few Trump quotes that evoked disbelief from the American public over the past few years.


1. “It would be really disappointing - not really - but it would depend on what’s inside the magazine. I don’t think Ivanka would do that, although she does have a very nice figure. I’ve said if Ivanka weren’t my daughter, perhaps I’d be dating her.” – Donald Trump on his daughter appearing in a magazine like Playboy

Although a comment like this raises question about what kind of parent Donald is, it's also flat out creepy. I'm not really sure how a parent could say something like this about their child. But alright then.

2. “You know, it really doesn’t matter what the media write as long as you’ve got a young, and beautiful, piece of ass.” – Donald Trump

Ah, there's that good old misogyny that he's known quite well for. Trump has attempted in the past to draw parallels from himself to Reagan. You could definitely imagine Reagan saying this... right?

3. "People said I want to go and buy debt and default on debt, and I mean, these people are crazy. This is the United States government. First of all, you never have to default because you print the money, I hate to tell you, OK?" – Donald Trump

It seems as though Trump missed seventh grade social studies class. Printing money to solve the debt crisis is a brilliant idea, and inflation really is just a hoax.

4. “I guarantee you there's no problem. I guarantee." – Donald Trump to Marco Rubio, asserting his penis is of satisfactory size

There's not really anything else that needs to be said here. This one speaks for itself. A man who could very well be the next President of the United States, discussing the size of his penis during a nationally televised debate. Swell.

5. “I think the only difference between me and the other candidates is that I’m more honest and my women are more beautiful.” – Donald Trump

"My women". This is a direct quote, and there's that misogyny coming back to light. I guess no one really cares that one of the most powerful men in America is referring to women as his possessions.

6. "You've called women fat pigs, dogs, slobs, disgusting animals. Your Twitter account has several - " “Only Rosie O'Donnell." – Donald Trump in response to Megyn Kelly

I definitely see a misogynistic pattern emerging here. Trump, once again, without a care in the world, making comments that should definitely be left unsaid on the national stage.

7. “When Mexico sends its people, they're bringing drugs, they're bringing crime. They're rapists.” – Donald Trump

That's not racist at all, right? Classifying an entire group of people (Mexican immigrants) as drug dealers, criminals, and rapists? We definitely need someone with this mindset in the driver's seat of America.

8. “We will cut so much, your head will spin.” – Donald Trump

This was Trump's response to people asking for details about how he would modify the budget. No details of where these cuts will occur. Just that it will make your head spin. That's reassuring!

9. “Green energy sources are really just an expensive way of making the tree-huggers feel good about themselves.” – Donald Trump

I understand some people (conservatives, mostly) are against green energy, for a number of reasons. However, I definitely don't think this is how you're supposed to address your disagreement. It seems as though Trump doesn't respect anyone. Period.

10. “An ‘extremely credible source’ has called my office and told me that Barack Obama’s birth certificate is a fraud." – Donald Trump

The whole "Obama birth certificate" fiasco was certainly pathetic, but this quote takes the cake as the most comical part of the entire incident. An "extremely credible source". It seems as though Donald always knows a guy for everything to make his points seem stronger, although he's obviously just lying.

11. “My fingers are long and beautiful, as, it has been well documented, are various other parts of my body.” – Donald Trump

Wow, more penis comments. This is starting to seem like a preteen conversation.

12. “You're disgusting, you're disgusting.” – Donald Trump in response to lawyer Elizabeth Beck, who asked for a break from a deposition to breastfeed her daughter

At the time of this deposition, Trump was a man in his mid-60's, with several kids of his own. And this was his reaction to a woman that needed to feed her child. Immature is one way to put it, but that definitely doesn't go far enough. Pitiful might be a better way of describing it.

13. “All of the women on The Apprentice flirted with me - consciously or unconsciously. That's to be expected.” – Donald Trump

I don't think there's another person as misinformed and self-absorbed as Trump. He seriously believes that there's nothing more to this world than money.

14. “He’s not a war hero. He was a war hero because he was captured. I like people who weren’t captured.” – Donald Trump on John McCain

Talking down on a prisoner of war, as a man hoping to be America's next Commander in Chief. There's really no other comment necessary.


Regardless of what other atrocities come out of Donald Trump's mouth, there will still be American citizens supporting him in the coming election. That's to be expected.

Political correctness might have gone a bit too far, but Trump is completely politically incorrect. Despite your views on Hillary Clinton, do you really want this man in control of the United States of America?

I think the American public as a whole has a lot more thinking to do.

Small towns certainly have their pros and cons. Many people who grow up in small towns find themselves counting the days until they get to escape their roots and plant new ones in bigger, "better" places. And that's fine. I'd be lying if I said I hadn't thought those same thoughts before too. We all have, but they say it's important to remember where you came from. When I think about where I come from, I can't help having an overwhelming feeling of gratitude for my roots. Being from a small town has taught me so many important lessons that I will carry with me for the rest of my life.

I can't say "thank you" enough to express how grateful I am for you coming into my life. You have made such a huge impact on my life. I would not be the person I am today without you and I know that you will keep inspiring me to become an even better version of myself.

Course registration at college can be a big hassle and is almost never talked about. Classes you want to take fill up before you get a chance to register. You might change your mind about a class you want to take and must struggle to find another class to fit in the same time period. You also have to make sure no classes clash by time. Like I said, it's a big hassle.

This semester, I was waitlisted for two classes. Most people in this situation, especially first years, freak out because they don't know what to do. Here is what you should do when this happens.

Is there really such a difference in Challah bread or Easter Bread?

Ever since I could remember, it was a treat to receive Easter Bread made by my grandmother. We would only have it once a year and the wait was excruciating. Now that my grandmother has gotten older, she has stopped baking a lot of her recipes that require a lot of hand usage--her traditional Italian baking means no machines. So for the past few years, I have missed enjoying my Easter Bread.
