He stirs up racial and class hatred intentionally. He threatens to sue or jail his opponents. He wants to curtail free speech. He likes torture and suggests killing the families of terrorists. His policies on the stump and on his website don't match. He promises the moon but his ideas for achiving that are ludicrous and change with the wind. He's a demagogue.
What is there to like about him?
Stirs up racial hatred intentionally? Those people were stired before Trump came on the scene? Those people are focused on racial identity. Suddenly we have all these buzz words like white priveledge, white guilt, black lives matter etc. Saying all lives matter seems to get them angry, and if saying all lives matter more then just black lives, then let them get angry. I'm not going to bow down to their demands and try to appease them out of white guilt, which I don't have any. And what's this about class hatred? Is it because he's amassed billions of dollars from being a successful businessman and real estate developer? Are they jealous?
Suing someone for libel is nothing new.
What's an example of the free speech he wants to curtail? Are you talking about the protesters yelling incessantly when he's trying to speak at his events?
Not a fan of the torture thing, and I think he's even reversed that, even though it happens a lot in the real world in many countries, including the US, which not known to the general public. I don't support it, but talk to soldiers sometime about it.
I like him because he's real. He doesn't bow down to the broke back PC crowd and self censor his speech to appease their delicate feelings. PC is way out of control, and needs to be reversed. PC is really limiting freedom of speech, not Trump. I like him because he's not a globalist who wants to fleece the Americans out of money to support large transnational corporations. He wants to tackle our out of control trade deficit. He wants to fix the border issue, where even border agents say Obama forces them to complete the smuggling process, but capturing illegal immigrants bring them to the US, where they are let go, and not getting deported. I also like him because he upsets the fragile social justice warriors. He says things people are not used to hearing because a lot of people are very naive about how the world works, including trade, economics, business investment.
