This year, only one name will be talked about over and over again.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Donald Trump.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">You\u2019ll be hearing about him every week. He is the one candidate everyone is fearful of. The one candidate that everybody complains about and the one candidate that, unfortunately, might have a shot at winning the Republican nomination. <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">But man, what a show he is running. He says it\u2019s not a publicity stunt, but in my opinion, he\u2019s running a clown show. He\u2019s talking about candidates left and right, calling Hillary Clinton a liar, questioning <a href=\"https:\/\/www.mdcthereporter.com\/executive-order-protects-millions-of-undocumented-immigrants-from-deportation\/\"><span style=\"color: #3366ff;\">President Barack Obama\u2019s decisions<\/span><\/a> and Ted Cruz\u2019s citizenship status, the list goes on and on and on. I mean, how much more will Trump offend before his points are made clear?<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">He\u2019s already offended Mexicans, Latinos, Muslims and more, plus, he\u2019s been the subject of memes, ad blocks and trolls, etc. I have never seen an election this entertaining or one-sided in my life. <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">You see candidates going against Trump, which apparently is the one thing they can all agree on. This sounds like Trump vs. the World. How can Trump offend so many people and get away with it? He may say it like it is, but it might not get him anywhere. Trump has so many businesses to his name, including golf courses, buildings, planes, that if he loses, he said in an interview with <a href=\"https:\/\/abc.com\/shows\/2020\"><span style=\"color: #3366ff;\">ABC\u2019s 20\/20<\/span><\/a>: \u201cI would go back to running my businesses.\u201d \u00a0Trump should decide whether he wants the presidency or his businesses, because you can\u2019t have both. <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">It\u2019s a plan by Trump to eventually take over the world, if elected. <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Every week, or mainly every day, you hear something about what Trump has to say, and it is mostly, or always, controversial. Plus, there is a higher chance of having protesters complaining against him than any other presidential candidate in this election. <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Let\u2019s be honest, is this good? More likely not. He already wants to build a wall in Mexico to stop illegal immigration, but that will continue because it\u2019s not just Mexicans coming, but people from El Salvador, Chile, Colombia and Honduras. He also wants to temporarily block Muslims from coming to America. Canada\u2019s new prime minister, Justin Trudeau, has started accepting Syrian refugees fleeing from violence. If Trump wins, it looks like more people are off to Canada and not America. <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">This is a country that\u2019s the land of the free, that accepts every kind of immigrant and is the home of the brave. It gives people new hope. That\u2019s what America is about, not Trump. His plans are a joke. Trump is somebody who\u2019s not meant to be trusted. I don\u2019t think he will win the Republican nomination or the presidency. I think Trump needs to figure it out because by the way he\u2019s been running his campaign, he sounds like a clown.<\/span><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>We are now in 2016, and throughout the year, there will be one big topic discussed: Politics.
