for all non-Trump supporters I believe I can convince you to vote for him if you would only list your grievances towards him as president.
the media likes saying Christie is a thinking mans Trump or low-information supporters support Trump (as if you were highly informed you would vote for Jeb!) which I strongly disagree with. this applies to democrats to so they can switch over from the corrupt DNC and Hillary
For starters, he loves eminent domain for corporations, he's thin-skinned, he waves the Bible around like he actually knows what it says, and he generally acts like a grade school class clown (cracks potty jokes, and makes faces and calls people names when he disagrees with them).

Yeah, there's been a lot of really superficial reasons why Trump and Trump supporters have been trashed, and most of those reasons are related to "he's a rude person and you're stupid and racist if you support him".
I'm not a Trump supporter yet because there is still 11 months left until the election and I have plenty of time to make up my mind.
He's mean, he's a clown, he's a bully, he's a racist, he's a bigot, he's not politically correct and hurts my feelings, wah, wah, wah, blah, blah, blah... btw, you don't have to convince me, I'm already voting for Trump.

The eminent domain issue is a concern. I would submit to you that the man we have as president now is also thin skinned, dismisses the Bible when it is convenient (when trashing Bible and gun clingers) and quotes it (incorrectly) when convenient (throwing stones in glass houses). Finally (as it relates to your post) I would rather have someone making faces than someone who criticizes his fellow citizens on the world stage, dismisses concerns about bringing refugees into the country as being scared of women and orphans, who appears disinterested and detached and disengaged, and who has a "creative relationship with the truth".
Trump has a history of being for something and then not. So no matter what he says now I have no idea what his position really is. Single payer, gun control, immigration, as far as economics, and being a president.
The president is suppose to have limited power, as does the congress but they declare war, they send all bills, spending and laws no the president. The president is not the be run as executive orders and most importantly saying no fly zones over parts of countries you do not own and or telling they can't when the country already invited them to fly. You also aren't going to shoot down russian planes over flying over airspace that is not yours and or unless it is a country that is under attack that you are supporting and under attack from russia. IE lets see The brits said no fly zone for russia and the brits would shoot them down first. Trump doesnt understand to make America great again comes when government is limited including the presidents power, and "shutting down parts of the internet" people are free and defense of that nation is strong but with purpose and not saying statements like we will shoot down Russians. This goes for the rest of the tough talk republicans who have no idea what they are talking about.
Simply put, Trump is the most ridiculous, dim-witted candidate this country has ever produced.
-He's a former game show host with the vocabulary of a 4th grader.
-His speeches are pure gibberish.
-He has a poor grasp of the issues-- his campaign relies exclusively on dog whistle politics.
-He panders to the right-wing fringe.
The term "unpresidential" may as well have been invented for him.
1. I lived in NYC for years and watched him ride roughshod over established neighborhoods and residents who made up the fabric of the city and gave it the character that made it NYC, in order to erect giant cement phallic symbols to himself. He did not care about those who lived in the neighborhoods he was destroying one iota and made it obvious.
2. Thought the whole Ivana/Marla Maples affair was pathetic and trashy, yet he seemed proud of it.
3. I don't think a self-serving braggart who does not actually care about people would make a decent president.
4. Never really cared for his characteristics or personality traits anyway, but when he aired the Apprentice, I watched for a season and liked it (mostly because of his assistants--executives George and Carolyn, who I really liked). Others liked Carolyn also--a lot. Too much apparently, as Trump then fired her because she was getting attention (and taking it away from him). Thought that was telling, catty and cheap.
5. Hated the way he decorated everything in gaudy ornaments dipped in gold. Not my taste but I thought it was pretentious and tacky. I believe people who have a strong need to flaunt wealth are insecure, shallow and unimpressive.
6. Thought he acted like a total bozo during the whole bankruptcy fiasco because he felt it was necessary to continuously tell people he was wealthy despite the fact he was obviously in financial straits. Humble is not in his lexicon.
7. The Birther Fiasco. Do not respect birthers in general, but Trump had to take it to ridiculous heights with investigations and publicity. Pathetic. At the WH Correspondents Dinner when he was roasted royally for that folly, he could not laugh at himself--just sat their shooting dagger looks at everyone. Takes himself much too seriously.
8. Disliked the way he started public wars with people he felt had somehow disrespected him. Felt it was shallow and childish.
9. He sues anyone he feels has disrespected him over the dumbest little thing. Feel it is childish and shallow.
10. Dislike the comments he has made about women. He seems to feel that women are basically ornaments and only worthy of respect if they are young and beautiful. Otherwise, they either do not exist or are worthy of only his insults. Again--shallow.
11. I don't like braggarts in general. It is a trait that reflects tackiness, insecurity and the need to impress people, but comes off as shallow and unimpressive.
12. He's more than rude--he's crude. I dislike rude. I detest crude.
13. He purposely insults and offends people and then says it is only being anti-PC because he thinks it will be believed (and it is by some). Its more than anti-PC. It is hostile.Like those passive-aggressive people who insult people and then say they were joking. Pure hostility.
14. He is immature and thin-skinned. Those late night twitter rants are uncivil, embarrassing and something one would expect from a sixth-grader.
15. He is not terribly knowledgeable about foreign or domestic policy and has no respect for insight and knowledge gained through experience in those matters.
16. He went into Scotland and destroyed lives, the ecosystem and the coastline, and did not care one bit.
So to sum up--I dislike him because he is shallow, pretentious, immature, misogynistic, thin-skinned, vengeful, simplistic, disloyal, rude, boorish, tacky, hypocritical, passive-agressive, disrespectful of human beings in general, and knows nothing about governing, foreign policy or domestic policy, but thinks that is irrelevant to the presidency.
Sorry for the lengthy answer, but you asked. Want to discuss one at a time?
