Introduction: Personal Perspective on Trump's Legacy

As a Brit, Donald Trump is not directly a concern in my daily life. Nonetheless, his actions and words on the global stage have certainly impacted many worldwide.

For many, Trump's stance during the January 6th, 2021, insurrection is all that is needed to disprove his credibility. In fact, the actions and rhetoric of Trump himself and his followers have led to a significant number of people disliking him, and it was not the media that created this sentiment. Trump's own words and actions are the primary source of his reputation.

The Reasons for Dislike

The dislike of Trump stems from several factors:

Racism: Many see Trump's rhetoric and policies as promoting racial divisions and hatred. Misogyny: His views on women, both public and private, have often been criticized as sexist and harmful. Crazy Ideas and Lack of Policy Knowledge: The belief that Trump and his administration were clueless about how the government worked was widespread. Ill-equipped Leadership: There were legitimate concerns about his suitability for the presidency, including his apparent lack of knowledge about how to run the country effectively.

Personally, I do not hate Trump, but I can hardly consider him a viable candidate for the future. His history of making unfounded claims and repeating them shows that he deserves no credibility. The responsibility for his ill-conceived policies and statements lies with him and no one else.

Historical Impact: The Trump Repugnancy

History will not be kind to Donald Trump. He will be remembered as 'The Trump Repugnancy,' a term that encapsulates both his divisive rhetoric and his failure to provide effective leadership. Whether watched through a video without audio, or in a live speech, he evokes a deep dislike due to his consistent rhetoric and actions.

Here are a few aspects of his character and actions that epitomize his detestable nature:

Pathetic Moron: References to him as a 'pathetic moron' reflect the deep-seated disdain many have for his intelligence and decision-making capabilities.

Corrupt Pervert: The term 'corrupt pervert' refers to his alleged unethical business practices and personal scandals. These were at the forefront of discussions during his presidency, further tarnishing his reputation.

Coward: Some perceive him as a coward, using collaborators or supporters to deflect accountability for his actions, especially after the controversial actions of January 6th.

Sack of Shit: This term represents the overall contempt for his character and his actions while in office.

Viscerally Hated: Many people in the UK, and even internationally, have expressed a visceral dislike for Trump and his policies.

Financial and Legal Issues

Financially, Trump's business empire is built on a series of failed projects and questionable ventures. His claims to being a billionaire are subject to scrutiny. The term 'fake billionaire' refers to his inflated self-assessment of wealth, which is based on the value he places on properties and businesses he does not own, but which bear his name.

On a legal note, his finances have long been under scrutiny. After the 9/11 attacks, anti-terror laws in the UK banned him from buying properties in the UK, citing his financial situation as a risk. He typically pays in cash, making it difficult to launder money legally. His failure to pay debts is well-documented, such as his refusal to pay for the design services of the Balmedie golf course in Scotland.

Loans and Legal Battles: Multiple lawsuits have demonstrated that Trump does not have the financial wherewithal to support his ventures, let alone pay his bills. The case against the designers of the Balmedie course showcased his refusal to pay even after losing a court case, leading to a financial crisis where he was forced to rely on associates to get the money.

These instances highlight the deep-seated financial issues that underpin Trump's reputation as a 'sack of shit.' His inability to pay his debts, despite having the means to do so in theory, underscores his failure to live up to his own claims of being a successful businessman.

Conclusion: The Future Perspective

While the media has certainly played a role in shaping public opinion about Trump, it is his own words and actions that hold the key to his lasting legacy. Whether one dislikes Trump for philosophical reasons or as a result of financial issues, his impact on global politics and his character are evident. Trump's legacy is one of divisiveness and incivility, and history will not be kind to him.
