One day, I was on Facebook and I saw this article from A World Come Of Age.

Read this quickly before you read my article. It has some key points I wish to address about the frontrunner for the Republican Nomination, Mr. Donald J. Trump. When you're done, please return here to get a real analysis of the points Mr. Jacob Genda makes. Shout-out to him!

I hope you laughed at that because it was a joke, but what I'm going to discuss is not. I love my country, but I'm not in the business of the "My country, right or wrong" mentality. We need to act with a particular discourse to participate in the post-9/11 era, that is, a more globalized society, that is also making large strides in the social global agenda, instead of acting to fortify internal problems in a polarizing way. I believe the beyond-conservative (and unrealistic) agenda Trump has will not only halt the great strides we've made to shrink the economic and social disparities of the U.S., but it will, in fact, send those strides in the opposite direction.

Back to the article written by Genda via the blog website, Wordpress.com. Here Genda lists all the compelling facts about Trump and all of his great ideas.

I had to:

I, of course, shared this article because I thought it was hysterical! But in the satire of that article, and of mine, arise some real issues that old and new voters -- conservative or liberal -- need to address. Trump, for starters, has a flawed campaign slogan: "Make America Great Again." This carries the pretense that:

1. America is currently not great.

2. It also is extremely flawed logically.

How does his opinion of "great" compare to the common, working class American's definition of "great." To me, it doesn't make sense. There are so many different things that make America great: diversity, prosperity and equality (the verdict is still out on this one). And for him to declare his version as correct, that just because he feigns infallibility and has confidence in what he utters (not unlike any other candidate), it can only lead to America as a more headstrong, less-willing participant in the complicated global landscape, for which we established a precedence where we were trailblazers.

I was arguing with my friend on the matter and explained to him that Trump answers to nobody. He is not willing to be cordial with any world leader, let alone anyone in the U.S. I am, honestly, so fascinated, from a fly-on-the-wall perspective, by what it would be like for him to be president because he, without even getting elected or proposing any sort of enforceable policy in office to Congress, has already created an internal tension unprecedented in any prior election in recent history. His values have already polarized the American population on issues like racial and economic equality, for example. If we can't act in a bipartisan way, at least in Congress, with a Commander-in-Chief who can hold it down in a civil manner, then we can kiss our status as a world leader goodbye. As if other countries don't already laugh at us, they may even see weakness -- an America that is so bogged down by internal conflict, enemies may as well walk in.

I could be completely wrong, but I know that when people are upset with their government, things don't normally turn out too well.

And frankly, the president, aside from being smart and aware, first and foremost, needs to be liked. Getting elected is the easiest thing any of these candidates may do over the next four years. They need to keep their fellow citizens happy and prosperous (on their own terms, of course), but if these cannot be attained through the virtues/policies of any candidate, they might as well give up now.

This made me mad, and didn't even speak to his immigration policies; spoke only to his potential to destroy the fabric of the American people, as a mainframe for the success of the government "by and for the people."

Cheers.
