I remember when Donald Trump first announced his political run for office. He built his campaign on the slogan: We’re going to Make America Great Again, “reinforced” by his bold claim of “building a wall”. When Trump got down into the weeds with Megyn Kelly during the first Fox News Republican debate, I sensed Donald Trump was a proud and arrogant man. I went on my own campaign against him; making phone calls, writing emails, calling news agencies and talk shows, posting madly to Facebook — whatever I could do to try to stop a really bad person from wrecking the Republican Party and damaging the nation. NeverTrump was my obsession, but it was, at that time, merely political for me.…

A democracy is a form of government in which the supreme power is vested in the people, and the United States claims to have the freest and most democratic in the world. In fact, many consider the American democracy to be a shining beacon of freedom, more so than any other nation on earth. Yet, upon closer examination of the U.S. presidential election process, this claim begins to deteriorate. Due to the founding fathers’ distrust in the ability of average voters to choose a president, they created the Electoral College: a system through which each state is given a number of electors based on its number of members in Congress. State legislatures choose a set of electors who later convene to cast votes for president.…
The usual circus that makes up the months preceding the United States Presidential Elections has seen quite the ripple: Donald J. Trump, billionaire and businessman, has announced his bid for the Oval Office in June 2015. His campaign thus far has been called many things–needed, wanted, racist, fascist, and all-around interesting–but what it cannot be called is unprecedented. Trump has taken the same path of many political fomenters before him. Donald Trump is without a doubt a demagogue; what remains to be seen is whether or not he will fulfill his promises and whether or not these are beneficial or constitutional.…
