Letter: Donald Trump unqualified to serve as president
I am embarrassed at the antics of some of the Republican presidential candidates. But those of Donald Trump reach the level of mortification.
His petty feud with Fox Television’s Megyn Kelly is childish and betrays his vigorous penchant to belittle and destroy any who differ with him, as well as to belittle his detractors. This is not a characteristic of anyone who should serve as president. His arrogance and pettiness in skipping the Republican debate reminds me of qualities in our current president.
I don't defend Ms. Kelly. I simply stay Mr. Trump is unqualified to serve as president.
Character counts. Wisdom and reliance upon God are essential. A president doesn’t have to be the smartest person. Reliance upon God and surrounding himself with highly qualified advisers with a willingness to listen and make decisions with God’s help are prime to me in supporting a candidate.
