Trump’s Presidency Synthesis
In the year 2017 President Obama’s four year term will be over and a new President will settle into the Oval office. As of now there are three Republican candidates still fighting for a nomination, Ted Cruz, John Kasich, and finally Donald Trump. Trump has received harsh criticism in the past couple of months and is known to be a loose cannon. However, despite all of this he still has won more states then the rest of the Republican nominees. So the question must be asked; do we really want this man as our next Commander in Chief?
As far as eligibility, Donald Trump meets all requirements for a presidential candidate, but many people find his actions unpresidential. This is mostly related to the crude things he has been known to see over the past couple of months. For example, speaking one day in Iowa, Donald Trump said, “I could stand in the middle of Fifth Avenue and shoot somebody, and I wouldn’t lose voters,” (Source 5). Donald Trump was looked down upon for this comment and definitely not the over-confidence that should be found in a President. He also has been accused of promoting violence at his rallies.

However, Donald Trump is marked as a person who “Insults women, spews profanity, is on his third wife, and calls anyone who disagrees with him a “loser.”’ (Source 6). This is not someone to look up to in the slightest and definitely not what an authority figure a child should grow up

    Donald Trump should not be president for the year 2016. First of all, what amazingly beneficial things will he do for America? He is a republican; he cares not for America and all of her citizens but for money and if he becomes president America will be ruined. Trump is not a man with the experience of war, or being in charge of a whole country and all the people in it, but a man of business and economy. Also if he is elected for the leader of our country, and if he has the generosity, he could get all of the citizens of America out of debt.…

    President Trump is the most immature and ridiculous president ever voted into office and that is saying something because there was once a president that was voted in who had affairs left and right.

    Ultimately, Donald Trump’s victory in this election will be good for America. He has the education and experience in business and finance to know how to be successful in these areas; hopefully, he will treat the United States as his new “business” and he will improve our economy and high levels of national debt using his fiscal knowledge. He also will provide jobs for the unemployed by making it easier on businesses to keep more of their income and therefore be financially able to hire more people. Many people believe that he will allow more people to start and expand their small businesses because of his plan to lower business tax. If businesses start booming, the economy should noticeably change, too.…

    Common sense seems to dictate that one of the current presidential candidates, Donald Trump was never thought to be running to lead our country. Trump is most commonly known as the very successful businessman who has made billions of dollars in his lifetime. He is also known for being extremely outspoken, and opinionated. Although, I don’t believe he would be the best option for our country due to his fearlessness when it comes to offending people and could even potentially chose the wrong words ruining our relationships with other countries. I am aware that many voters are ready for a change to a more outgoing, and verbal candidate.…
