I believe I have good reasons for being anti-Trump and here they are:

He's a lifelong liberal masquerading as a newly converted conservative. An actual Trojan horse candidate. He actually uses leftwing Democratic talking points against his fellow Republicans.

He is on record as saying Hillary would make a good President back in 2012. You can see the quote under the big picture in the header of this thread. How do you campaign against someone you're on record as endorsing? Hillary will quote his own words back to him. Pro-Hillary ads will be based on his own words of praise for Hillary. This is worse than picking the architect of Romneycare to run against Obamacare, a copy of Romneycare. Another loss.

He lies and is throroughly unethical. Witness his involvement in a vitamin pyramid scheme and a fake get rich quick "university." ByGone, would YOU recommend a loved one sink $35K into his "university?" Would ANY Trump supporter tell their children to enroll in Trump University? Of course not. You would recognize it as a con. So why trust someone who designed something you would shun?

He's shallow and ignorant of how government works and what major national issues are about. Worse he's uninterested in learning. If he debates Hillary, she'll look knowledgeable next to him.

He's been divisive and destructive to the party and the conservative movement. I believe his #1 goal is to prevent any other Republican from winning.

He hasn't built a "ground game" or state level campaign organization, relying on free media airtime and big rallies. That's why he's failing to line up unbound delegates. It's probably why he consistently gets fewer votes than the polling says he should ... he hasn't built an organized get out the vote effort. Damning for someone who claims to be a good manager. If he hasn't built an organization for the primaries, he'll be unprepared for the general election too. Add this up and it means he'd LOSE the general election.

Thanks for giving me the opportunity to explain WHY I'm anti-Trump.
