Al parecer, el candidato para la presidencia elegido por el Partido Republicano, será el intolerante multi-millonario Donald Trump. En muchos sentidos, Trump representa todo lo que está mal con este país. Es un incansable promotor de ataques racistas contra inmigrantes y musulmanes, al igual que un misógino que defiende la opresión de la mujer. Al mismo tiempo es un predicador de la avaricia disfrazado como aliado de los trabajadores. Es un populista de derecha que solo posee una característica positiva, y es que, a menos que ocurra un cambio inesperado, es un candidato inelegible.

As things stand, billionaire and bigot Donald Trump will be the Republican standard bearer for the presidency. In many ways he is a symbol of everything that is wrong with this country. He is a tireless promoter of racist anti-immigrant and anti-Muslim attacks. He is a misogynist, who defends the oppression of women. Trump spreads the gospel of ‘greed is good’ while pretending to be a friend of the working person. He is a right-wing populist with only one redeeming feature – that, barring some big change, he is unelectable.
