In general, I would define morality as a set of personal standards for good or bad behavior and character. Those are the standards I have for myself but I don't necessarily expect everyone I associate with to subscribe to the same standards as I hold for myself. (Also, when I look back on my record, I have not always lived up to my own standards.) When I board an airplane, I don't think much about the moral character of the pilot, just his competency. Likewise, when I see my pastor show weakness in his personal life, I don't immediately dismiss the message he delivered on Sunday. When I needed heart surgery, skill was the overall determining factor in selecting a surgeon. President Carter was probably one of our most morally upstanding leaders, but he was also one of the most incompetent presidents.
Our process for selecting a president is a long process of winnowing the field down to two realistic alternatives and one or the other will be the president. We can each use whatever criteria we choose for making our selection but, for myself, I don't subscribe to the idea that my vote is a moral decision nor is it about after the fact bragging rights. I am not voting for a best friend, a pastor or even someone I want to associate with on a regular basis. I am selecting one person from the two available alternatives who I have the most confidence in to make appointment, carry out policies and conduct the affairs of the nation in a manor most in alignment with our constitution. Sec. Clinton clearly does not meet any of my criteria while Mr. Trump will possibly meet some of them, therefore it is a simple decision for me.
Putting the "moral" argument aside what is your standard for a person fit for President?
Stupid talks like a fourth grader with words like "win bigly"
Mentally ill Narcissistic personality disorder (Can't handle when anyone is critical of him)
repulsive and insulting (to many instances to list)
Fascist personality (finds strength in Saddam Hussein, Kim jung Un, Vladimir Putin, Chinese government in the handling of Tiananmen Square.
Liar. (so, so, so many instances)
Trump makes himself out to be the moral candidate who will chose the right Supreme Court Justice. Is that an issue with you? If it is did you miss that he would appoint his pro abortion sister?
Modified to include Trumps endorsement of his pro abortion sister for Supreme Court.
Donald Trump told Mark Halperin yesterday that his sister, a federal judge, would be a “phenomenal” Supreme Court justice. He also said that “we will have to rule that out now, at least.” If he ever becomes president, let’s hope he rules it out permanently. Maryanne Trump Barry came up in my book The Party of Death for writing one of those heated judicial decisions in favor of giving constitutional protection to partial-birth abortion. She called a New Jersey law against it a “desperate attempt” to undermine Roe v. Wade. It was, she wrote, “based on semantic machinations, irrational line-drawing, and an obvious attempt to inflame public opinion instead of logic or medical evidence.” It made no difference where the fetus was when it “expired.”
