I wouldn't say it if I couldn't easily back it up with FACTS. Freedom of the press, freedom of religion, freedom of assembly, and the separation of powers. Trump is against all of these things and so are his supporters.
Trump has attacked legitimate, honest journalism countless times. He has executed unprovoked attacks against peaceful protesters and lied about it. He has shamelessly pandered to the religious right. He has consolidated power by putting his lobbyist cronies in charge of government agencies, intimidated and manipulated the Republican party into never holding him accountable for his words or actions, and radicalizing them to the point of backing him up no matter how corrupt he becomes. He has abused executive power constantly, using executive orders to shield himself from the consequences of his actions and has pardoned some incredibly evil pieces of s***.
If you could choose one or the other, would you choose the principles put in place by the Founding Fathers, or would you choose Trump's America? You can't have both - Trump's vision is absolutely incompatible with the principles this country was founded on. They are mutually exclusive. If you choose Trump, several very important freedoms and the checks and balances on presidential power will disappear.
If that's the choice you're going to make, at least be f***ing honest about it acknowledge that you have completely written off the Founding Fathers.
