Ten Reasons to Vote Against Trump

You might be able to think of a hundred, but here are my top ten, in reverse order:

10. The regressive tax cut, which blew up the deficit and increased inequality without creating any kind of an investment boom.

9. The pointless trade wars, particularly with friendly countries.

8. Sucking up to dictators all over the world.

7. Alienating our democratic allies in the name of “America First.”

6. Using his position to advance his business interests.

5. Treating climate change as a hoax instead of an existential threat.

4. His narcissism and incompetence.

3. Ignoring science and common sense on the pandemic.

2. His authoritarian tendencies, which will only get worse in a second term, as no one will remain to keep him within the boundaries of decency and the law.

And the top reason is . . .

  1. He divides the country every day by telling people like us that he hates us, and that we aren’t real Americans. Can you tolerate four more years of that?
