Trump acting un-American

I demand to see Donald Trump’s birth certificate. He’s not acting like an American. He believes in suppressing public dissent and free speech and incites violence to do so. He offers only rhetoric with a generous helping of juvenile insults to his political adversaries and our president.

Born and raised in a bubble of wealth he has two silver spoons in his mouth, given to him by his daddy. Do we want this spoiled, clueless brat for our president?

The people who idolize him think they have found their messiah. But I suspect that, far back in his genetic pool there may be a Mussolini lurking. The fascist dictator’s speeches and mannerisms have a chilling resemblance to Trump’s.

Donald Trump does not believe in democracy. In a democracy, you do not kick out and deride every protestor who disagrees with you. He is un-American in so many ways. Yes, I want to see his birth certificate. He can’t be one of us.
