However, many Americans oppose the election outcome because of Trump’s past. Due to Donald’s hypocritical behaviors, lack of qualifications for President of the United States, and his controversial comments surrounding minorities, he is seemingly unfit to be in office.

It’s pretty ironic that the man who’s so strict against immigration is the son and grandson of immigrants.

In fact, Donald has never held a political position before becoming POTUS; he starred in the reality TV show ‘the Apprentice,” and ran various businesses.

Clinton also boasts about her 35 years of experience. This says …show more content…

For example, in a 2015 speech he stated, “When Mexico sends its people, they’re not sending their best. [...] They’re bringing people that have lots of problems, and they're bringing those problems with us. They’re bringing drugs. They’re bringing crime. They’re rapists.” -2015 speech. Alongside with his statement about Mexicans, Trump claimed that “Both sides were to blame” when talking about the Charlottesville Nazi attacks. In other words, he was implying that not only were the knife-wielding racists to blame for the attacks, but the people that defended themselves too. Donald insults Mexicans, stereotypes them, and practically spits on them, but becomes neutral when it goes to Nazism; if that doesn’t scream “awful morals,” what will?

The political environment of pre-WWI Europe was filled with treaties and alliances created to prevent war and an emphasis of offensive realism and balanced multipolarity. If the great powers of Europe had focused more on liberalism and not practiced persuasive rhetoric then the conflicts that dominated the years of 1914 through 1918 may have been prevented.
