Trump's views on people who are not rich, white, males have been troublesome since he first began running for the 2016 Presidential election. Amongst his many outrageous statements, he has called to defund healthcare for the lower class, openly shared his racist sentiments, and made multiple sexist comments including how he grabbed a woman "by the pussy." All of this has come to be expected of Trump's image as a scandalous, but successful, businessman, but as the President of the United States, Trump's actions and statements need to change.
Trump's followers believe that they are being oppressed and experiencing racism
In a debate, one of my friends at her Mid-western, white, and Christian high school, she stated that she believed "Trump [was]

So why do so many white people think that they are being discriminated against? In a study done by Pew Research white people, especially Republicans, think that they get little to no advantage from their race. Yet still, they think they have the right to ban immigrants from other countries based on their race and religion.
For a country founded on immigrants from Britain, Ireland, Germany, and many more countries, this thinking should not be acceptable. In the small Missouri high school that my friend attends, there are most likely no people who identify as Native American; even though almost all the students were born in the United States, they can all trace their lineage back to other countries. What makes their relatives who were looking for work, better lives, or fleeing religious persecution any different than these new immigrants?
Additionally, many of Trump's followers will believe anything he says is true. Many conservatives even believe that the news articles and stories published on Trump that show him in a bad light are entirely made
Trump has put into his campaign. He has brought Islamophobia to a whole new level feeding off of our citizens fear of another terrorist attack on American soil. Trump stated that America needs “a total and complete shutdown of Muslims entering the United States.” He defended this statement by saying those who believe in Jihad pose a threat to our nation (Chavez, Paola). His comments about Muslims has stirred communities to fear their Islam practicing neighbors without a legitimate reason. Trump has caused much of society to belittle the African American race with his uneducated rhetoric. Trump has stated, “There’s no such thing as racism anymore. We’ve had a black president so it’s not a question anymore. Are they saying black lives should matter more than white lives or Asian lives? If black lives matter, then go back to Africa? We’ll see how much they matter.” However, we all know racism exists and always will, no matter how hard we try to rid it from our society. To attempt to gain the African American vote in a speech he says “You’re living in poverty, your schools are no good, you have no jobs, 58% of your youth is unemployed -- what the hell do you have to lose?” Donald Trump obviously as no issue talking badly of minority races especially Mexicans. Trump himself has labeled Mexican immigrants as criminals, rapist, and killers. His uneducated statement set off those of
Racist comments and actions absolutely pervade the atmosphere surrounding Donald Trump and his campaign. At a recent event Trump hosted at a sports center in Alabama, a 53 year old man by the name of Jim Sherota is quoted as saying a few pretty horrific
I was so surprised how Donna Brazile tried to defend herself when there is proof that she was the one who shared a town hall question with the Clinton campaign. I think that it was a waste of time for herself and others trying to prove that she did nothing. Also, when she said, “You're like a thief that wants to bring into the night the things that you found that was in the gutter”, I felt really bad for Kelly. I get that people doesn’t want to admit that they did a bad thing, but I think that it was a mistake to say that Kelly is a thief in front of the audience. Also, I think that she should not control audience’s mind to make them think that she is not the one who did a illegal things but Kelly who stole her private. Which is related to
“Trump is a symptom of the contemporary political climate in America that draws its origins from a number of factors. For one, the undercurrent of racism that has existed in this country since its inception. While it has been marginalized bit-by-bit over the past several decades, it’s clear that racial bigotry is still very much alive and widespread throughout the United States. This unfortunate subsection of the American populace became increasingly more vocal during the Obama presidency, while also gradually gaining some degree of mainstream acceptance via online forums and what we now call alt-right publications.
Trump administration is becoming more dominant than others major corporation. However, I believe that the U.S citizens do not have a word of their own opinion. In order to have a voice or an opinion, its must require being very wealthy or own a major corporation. No doubt President Donald Trump is building an Autocracy government for an example in the article "Washington issued a temporary restraining order freezing enforcement of Trump’s immigrant and refugee ban"(1) this shows the example of what kind of power the president have. According to the constitution, Donald Trump is violating the rights of Muslims because of their religion, President Trump has a sensation that all Muslims are bad.
My family ain't rich,we barely hold on to middle class.We support fair treatment no matter who they are what race they are. But when trump talks about making america great again he singles out other races has the problems,or saying some lie about someone who doesn’t support him. What Trump says is racist but is he himself a racist.
The day after the final Republican debate before Super Tuesday, presidential frontrunner Donald Trump unveiled the endorsement of New Jersey Gov. Chris Christie. Meanwhile, Marco Rubio is ramping up his attacks on Trump, labeling the billionaire businessman a "con artist." Voters in 12 states head to the polls on Tuesday, and half the delegates needed for the GOP nomination are up for grabs. Is Trump unstoppable as he marches to his party's nomination? Plus, President Obama finds himself in a high-stakes battle with Senate Republican leaders who refuse to consider anyone to fill the vacant Supreme Court seat or address the president's plan to close the Guantanamo Bay military prison.
The worst part about Donald Trump’s false claims is that his supporters actually stand by him and say that what he “saw” was correct. The men and women that support all that he does from all over the world actually called in and said that what he
“Donald Trump’s nomination is the first time American politics has left me truly afraid.” This person is not the only one who does not support Trump’s nomination. Their aversion to Trump is very understandable. They are sick of his lies, insults, and disrespect. Trump should not have been allowed to participate in the presidential elections
Donald Trump is a man of many faces. He is known around the globe as a successful American businessman, reality television star, and public figure. Growing up in Queens, New York, he studied at Fordham University and the University of Pennsylvania before starting his career as a builder and real estate developer. He married Ivana Winkylmar in 1977 and they later had three children. Trump became invested in hotels and casinos, where he earned a quick profit. By 1997, his net worth was nearly two billion dollars. Having been a powerful business leader for much of his life, Donald became interested in politics. In the summer of 2015, he shocked the nation by officially announcing his decision to run in the upcoming election. In the early stages of the race, many Americans mistook the news for a hoax or political joke; however, it was not long before he gained a significant amount of followers. Trump has plenty of voter support, but is he qualified to be the leader of an entire country? Can it be truthfully said that he is a respectable and competent candidate? He has expressed several outrageous political standpoints, he is known for having a complete lack of respect for others, and he has proven to have scarce knowledge of presidential responsibilities as well as other issues.

Republican presidential runner Donald Trump may have failed to disown the Ku Klux Klan this weekend, but he'll have you know he is not racist. In fact, he claims to be “the least racist person that you have ever met,” and last summer he claimed about not having a racist bone in his body. But he hasn’t given us a lot of reason to believe that. In fact, despite Trump’s protests to the contrary, he has a long history of saying and doing racist things. It's not really surprising that he's won the support and praise of the country’s white supremacists.
Everybody would want a good representable president right? In this case Donald Trump doesn’t represent a good president, the reason why would be because whenever Hillary and Trump have come together Donald Trump has expressed racism, discrimination towards women.
Prejudice doesn’t discriminate, it lives in all runs of people: Whites, African-Americans, Asians, Hispanics, Republicans, Democrats, men, women, young, old- you name it. In a perfect world this level of hatred wouldn’t be the norm, but it is. It is so widespread that there’s tangible evidence that shows even Hispanics (immigrant or not) have negative affiliations with immigrants. How can this be when Hispanics take the cake for making up the largest portion of new-comers. Interestingly enough, research done by the Pew Research Center concludes that the more Hispanics have become accustomed to nativism in American culture, the more likely they are to feel negatively toward the matter. This sense of superiority is quite frankly sickening, to know that even counterparts of immigrants could fall suspect of discrimination goes to show its daunting power. What’s more, the false notion that immigrants are purely responsible for the uprooting of crime, scarce resources, drugs, disease, and more have been fed to natives by the media and those in powerful positions to continue defacing the image of immigration as there’s no solid evidence to justify being anti-foreign.
We live in a technology driven world, almost everyone own a smartphone today. Uber and its competitors are allowing us to use an app on our smartphone to call for a cab. When a rider request a ride, the app gives you an estimated time of when the driver will arrive. It also calculates the fare and take the money out of your account.
