I would never vote for Donald Trump. Here are 44 reasons why:

1. He would try to impose a national abortion ban
2. Threatens to use the military to go after his opponents whom he calls “the enemy within” if he is re-elected.
3. He is a racist
4. He is a liar (According to the Washington Post Trump told 19,127  lies in 1,226 days.)
5. He is a cheat
6. He is a convicted felon
7. He faithfully follows Hitler’s “big lie” theory, that if you continually  repeat a a lie, regardless how ridiculous, it will be believed. His “big lie” is he won the 2020 election. That lie would make Hitler proud.
8. He spreads despicable lies about Haitians stealing and eating pets, such as cats and dogs.
9. He would fire special counsel Jack Smith so that insurrection and other charges against Trump would disappear
10. He would appoint anti-vaxer to demolish the FDA and impose his anti-scientific ideas on the American people
11. The Muslim ban
12. Separating immigrant children in ICE detention from their parents
13. Smearing Mexicans as rapists
14. Insulting other Latinex  as criminals and terrorists
15. Describing certain countries as “shithole countries”
16. Wasting tax payer money on the border wall
17. Puppet of Putin
18. Disrespects women “ ….grab them by the pu**y”
19. Stupidly recommending injection of Lysol against corona virus infection
20. Irresponsible in refusing to wear face mask
21. Cruel sanctions against Venezuela, Iran and 37 other countries. In Venezuela alone these sanctions have been responsible for over 40,000 deaths of innocent men, women and children in less than 1 year. In many cases, this denies them access to medicine and medical equipment as well as access to world markets for food and other necessities. 
22. Vindictive in increasing sanctions on Venezuela and Iran during COVID-19 pandemic
23. Intimidating a little country like Jamaica ( I am sure there are others) by canceling the visas of certain high officials of both the government and opposition political parties as well as prominent Jamaican citizens without giving any justification or reason.
24. Embarrassing  - laughed-at during UN address
25. Jealous over Obama – tries to rollback Obamacare even if it would deprive 20 millions of healthcare
26. Cronyism  – appoints unqualified friends to important positions
27. Retaliation against whistle blowers
28. Revolving door appointments
29. Puerile name calling of his opponents
30. Refusing to reveal  his tax returns
31. Botching response to the COVID-19 pandemic
32. With the help of the supreme court, as President, he considers himself immune to commit crimes
33. Abuse of reporters at press conference because he is unable to answer their legitimate questions
34. Canceled US prohibition of landmines by US despite this  prohibition agreed to  by 164 countries including every other NATO country
35. Climate change denier who withdrew America from the  Paris Agreement,which is  an international treaty on climate change that was signed by 195 countries  in 2016
36. He is an egomaniac, constantly showering himself with praise
37. He is disrespected and the subject of ridicule by prominent journalists all over the world
38. He blocked a United Nations resolution to call for a global ceasefire during the coronavirus pandemic simply because it mentioned the World Health Organisation .
39. He withdrew America from the World Heath Organisation in the midst of a worldwide pandemic.
40. He imposed sanctions on the International Criminal Court.
41. He refused to attend memorial service in Paris for fallen American soldiers because he considered dead soldiers “losers” and “suckers”.
42. He has threatened international university students in America with deportation in their university switches to online classes because of the COVID 19 pandemic.
43. His gross abuse of power in commuting the prison sentence of his convicted law-breaking crony, Roger Stone.
44. the Trump administration is finalizing plans to rip open 1.5 million acres of Alaska's pristine Arctic National Wildlife Refuge  for oil and gas companies. 

I have my standards. Such a contemptible person should not even be eligible to be president. If he gets re-elected, Heaven help us all.
