The Trump Manifesto

When it comes to the newest class of voters most of them are wide eyed and understandably unsure as to whom they should be giving their very important vote to.  This essay will clear that up and show why Donald Trump is the man on the ballot whose name should be chosen on Election Day.  This essay will cover a broad range of reasons as to why you should vote for him ranging from his business savvy to his protective views and why even if he isn’t your guy he’s still the best candidate. 

Please allow me to admit that I realize Donald Trump isn’t a politician and that he is in fact a business man, but you should also allow me to show you why that isn’t a bad thing right now.  We are in need someone that will take our current debt of $19 QUADRILLION and  put it closer to zero.  Most people when looking at Trump will say that because he isn’t a politician he doesn’t know how to run a country.  That’s reasonable until you look at what he has done as a business man.  The Donald Trump organization just last year received over 9.5 billion dollars in profits and created 34,000 new jobs even in these hard times (Long).  Other people might look at him and see how he speaks his mind and think that he will start a war with someone just because of how they look.  There is a chance that he very well could start a war with his words but you must realize that he because he really does speak his mind he will not lie to you like every politician out there. Also, war can be a beneficial thing. I’m not saying war is groovy but look at what WW2 did to our economy. Prospect.org shows how WW2 ended the great depression for us by creating 17 million new jobs, increasing industrial productivity almost 100%, and giving companies double the profits after taxes. If you can’t find reason enough in those facts and argue that Trump will turn out like every other president and just support his financial supporters let me use therealdeal.com’s information and show you that he is worth $4.5 billion and that he owns $1.38 billion in New York City commercial real estate alone meaning that he has too much money to be bought and therefore will chase after his own agendas not that of some major corporation.

One of the Agendas that he most certainly will be chasing after is that of fighting the war on terror and Illegal Immigration, both two huge threats to us as a society. When some people are asked about illegal immigrants there initial response is to say that they came here for a better life so we should give that to them but those same people might not realize that there is 11.3 million illegal immigrants already here, half of them from Mexico, or that in Arizona alone roughly 700 million pounds of marijuana came into this country thanks to the large gaps in our current border patrol (Potter). Very few people believe that is a good thing especially once they realize that with every leaf of marijuana that crosses the border that it gets one step closer to their children and opens up the door to other stronger drugs or even the door of their jail cell.  Another part of the Trump initiative is to stop terrorism for good, here and across the globe. A lot of people simply say that we shouldn’t be the world’s police force but those people don’t realize how large of a threat it really is.  Matt Chorley clearly demonstrates in his report that terrorism is a HUGE deal because in 2014 alone there were more than 32,000 people killed by jihadist attacks and 29 of them being right here in America.  Since 9/11 we have had 49 people killed in America by Jihadist attacks and 9/11 had 3,000 people killed in one swoop.  If that doesn’t hit home, then maybe it will once they decide to hit your home because Trump didn’t get the chance to protect you.

Now even if you still don’t think that Trump is your man then let me show you who his competition is and what they will do and you’ll be jumping on the Trump train faster than you can say Freedom.   He currently is in the lead in the Republican race by such a margin that he is a lock for the presidential Republican candidate therefore you must now consider the democrats as his only competitors.   Bernie Sanders could very well be who ends up getting the democratic ballot so I’ll start with him.  Most people who say they will vote for him are doing so because of the free stuff that he will give them, that being health care and a college education.  Those things aren’t free guys. In fact, they are extremely expensive and according to Emily Stewart free health care for America would cost a whopping 15 trillion dollars and another 3.5 trillion dollars to give away free education.  I bet that Communist Bernie sanders didn’t tell you about that and how he was going to have to raises taxes in order to do so.  If that doesn’t turn you over to trumps side of the great wall then maybe hearing about the other horse in this race, Hillary Clinton, will.  Hillary Clinton is very pro-gun control because she thinks, like a lot of people today do, that without guns in the hands of law abiding citizens then there will be no more gun violence.  She may not realize this but gunfacts.info sure knows that is wrong.  As a matter of fact, 71% of gunshot victims had a previous arrest records and that 64% had been convicted of a crime with 11 times being the average amount of arrest. This statistics show that gun crimes are committed by repeat offenders, mostly gang affiliated, but Hillary doesn’t realize that. Thankfully Trump does. Another noteworthy statistic is that guns actually prevent roughly 2.5 million crimes each year as opposed to causing them like she would have you believe. Even that might not have converted you yet because you say “But they are going to give me welfare because I need it and they owe it to me!”  These people are refereeing to the welfare support that the government supplies to them for various reasons.  They also think it’s wonderful because it gives them money to use while searching for a job but that is super expensive and hurts the people actually paying taxes.  How expensive one might ask? Well last year the government spent 1.53 billion dollars on welfare and 25% of the people accepting this money did no work at all. That is money coming straight out of the working class’s pocket so they don’t have to and is only tolerable to Sanders and Clinton.

In conclusion, Donald Trump is a very intelligent and successful business man that is worth the amount of money most people dream of, has his eyes on making America great again by getting rid of those who aren’t American, and will definitely trump his competition so go and give him your vote!
