You are not understanding my point. My criticism has nothing to do with electing a perfect or less perfect president. Besides, nobody expects to elect a perfect president anyway. We all know that. What I'm trying to say is that Trump has already said and done heinous things which you can never ever defend nor condone. I'm not going to list them all because they speak volume. This has nothing to do with perfection or ability. These are the traits of a plain nasty character.
It is no use for Trump to calm down his racist stooges now. The damage has already been inflicted. During his entire election campaign he has been screaming and shouting racist and xenophobic diarrhea. You expect Trump to stop his hateful supporters in a single day when he has been feeding them all sorts of paranoid garbage? One unknown guy stood with a disgusting rape placard and you blame all liberals? How is this even a comparison? Hillary didn't stand in front of the world and call Mexicans rapists or vow to ban Muslims from entering the US. Trump did. That's the difference. Please try to differentiate because there is a world of difference.
I am looking from the American perspective and I'm flabbergasted. In fact, I'm disgusted. Every country has its fair share of troubles and problems. Not a single country is immune from jobs going overseas etc. There are people on this planet who are dying every single day and are forced to leave their homeland. Only because certain spoiled brat nations had to interfere and destroy their entire lives. I don't even hear those refugees who literally lost everything cry in anger and blame everyone around them as these self entitled Trump bigots have done. It is an outrage and you know it. Trump supporters ought to know that only they are to be blamed because Mexicans and Muslims don't shape the policies of their country. Their elected leaders do. The angry white Trump supporter just doesn't have the guts to take it on his chin. No, angry Trump supporter has to blame the rest because he is the victim.
Trump shouted that Mexicans are rapists. Trump shouted that Muslims should be banned. No one else did except him. What is possibly pathetic when I state the obvious? He is responsible for flaring racist sentiments in his country. I'm going to blame him directly and he deserves the entire blame.
I see your point but I take an issue with your exaggerated accounts and fear-mongering.
Let us revisit the remarks of Donald Trump about Mexicans:-
"They’re not sending you, they’re sending people that have lots of problems and they’re bringing those problems. They’re bringing drugs, they’re bringing crime. They’re rapists and some, I assume, are good people, but I speak to border guards and they’re telling us what we’re getting."
I have contrasted his remarks in RED and BLUE to clarify what he is saying. He did not assert that Mexican immigrants are evil on the whole or something like that. He asserted that Mexicans have a history of violence and crimes and they carry such history with them into the US. He also stated that some Mexicans are good people. However, border guards have lot of stories to tell and they are far from pleasant.
Now, time to look at some documented facts and figures:
http://www.businessinsider.com/mexican-cartel-guide-2015-12
The infamous Mexican cartels have infiltrated US mainland and society by taking advantage of loopholes in American immigration screening procedures, generally welcoming attitude towards immigrants and lack of adequate fencing on the Mexican border. A large number of Mexican immigrants are actually working for Mexican cartels, promoting their illicit business in the US. Now, I have a simple question for you: how would you know that a Mexican immigrant is a member of a Mexican cartel or not without properly screening him? What to do about illegal immigration?
Therefore, by fencing the Mexican border and screening all Mexican immigrants, American administration can monitor cross-border activity in a more effective manner and control the inflow of drugs, human trafficking and cartel agents into the US mainland.
Since
Democrats were sleeping and/or ignored the aforementioned problems, somebody had to do something about it. Mexican cartels are destroying American families and (illegal) Mexican immigrants are stealing American jobs. This is what Trump is talking about. Interestingly, these ground realities are negatively affecting Black Americans the most.
Mexico is to US like Afghanistan is to Pakistan.
Now, read this thought-provoking assessment:
http://www.breitbart.com/big-journa...bout-illegal-alien-crime-the-media-covers-up/
Trump is simply pointing out the problems; and he wants to address them through legal channels. He is talking about fencing the Mexican border, deporting illegal immigrants (irrespective of their nationality) and introducing immigrant screening reforms. He did not assert that American public should take the law into their hands and address the highlighted issues in the manner they deem fit. If the hate-crimes have supposedly spiked after Trump's victory in the elections, than the American public is to blame. What he can do is to request people to let the law take its course, like he did in a recent interview. Why you hold him accountable for it?
Let us revisit the remarks of Donald Trump about Muslims:-
Trump asserted that he would impose a (temporary) ban on Muslim immigration until an effective Muslim immigration screening system is in place by citing following reasoning:
"According to Pew Research, among others, there is great hatred towards Americans by large segments of the Muslim population. Without looking at the various polling data, it is obvious to anybody the hatred is beyond comprehension. Where this hatred comes from and why we will have to determine. Until we are able to determine and understand this problem and the dangerous threat it poses, our country cannot be the victims of horrendous attacks by people that believe only in Jihad, and have no sense of reason or respect for human life. If I win the election for President, we are going to Make America Great Again."
Do you think that events such as 9/11, Boston bombings and Orlando Shootings were helping the image of Muslims in the US? They were not. All of the culprits in these cases were Muslim immigrants. This bubble had to burst at some point.
However, Trump is expected to soften his stance on the (temporary) ban thing vis-a-vis Muslim immigration, after deliberations on the matter with his advisers and counselors. He campaign site no longer advertises it.
----
Again, state-related matters are not supposed to be grounded in morals and/or appeasing to Liberal mindset. They are grounded in the experiences of a state vis-a-vis external elements.
ANALOGY
Why do you think Pakistani establishment decided to deport Afghan refugees? There must be some solid reasons behind it. Even though the move is affecting many Pakistani woman, Pakistani establishment feels that this is a necessary-evil to improve the situation of security in the country.
However, you are absolutely silent on the plight of Pakistani woman (married to Afghan men) becoming victims of an ill-planned mass deportation strategy. This is a sign of hypocrisy on your part.
You are criticizing Americans for getting tough on immigrants without an iota of understanding of their problems but turn a blind eye towards similar developments in Pakistan. This is why I am calling you out on your hypocrisy. Don't take it personal, rather look yourself in the mirror.
