Letter: Donald Trump is a dangerous person who should concede self-defeat
Donald Trump is a dangerous person, politically and socially speaking.
Reading most of the news coverage pertaining Donald Trump, the most hated politician in America, makes me think about how — hypothetically — highly disastrous and divisive such a presidency could be.
Primary voters, first of all, are responsible for casting their own votes for someone who never saw or embraced politics as a way of life. Those voters, had they educated themselves on Mr. Trump’s terribly extremist demagogism and evident lack of logic, could have avoided voting for him or any of those also-extremist Republican candidates who already lost to Trump.
Our country’s most important political office, the presidency, is something that cannot fall on the hands of someone who is ineffective in business and possibly in public service. Better yet, Trump must concede self-defeat and quit the race for everyone’s tranquility.
