The real Donald Trump

The best indicator of someone's true character is how he treats others (employees, family, and friends) and whether or not he gives back to the community (time or resources).  We have learned Hillary Clinton's true character from stories leaked from White House staff members, including the Secret Service agents.  When a candidate is running for the highest office in the land, we must put aside our biases and make an honest effort to seek factual information that will allow the electorate an opportunity to learn the person's true character by presenting to them the "whole person."

I have listened to pundits and other politicians as well as read dozens of articles about Donald Trump's character ad nauseam.  The problem I have with the individuals who write and comment on Trump's character is that none of them actually knows him or has ever sat down and had a conversation with him.

The narrative is that Donald Trump, a 69-year-old man, is a serial adulterer and philanderer.  This narrative was also repeated by Senator Ted Cruz when he unloaded on Trump during his meltdown the last day of his presidential campaign.  In fact, it has even been said that Trump would destroy the moral compass of the country should he win the White House.  If the president of the United States sets the moral compass of the nation, then we have failed miserably with our past presidents.  We have elected to the presidency Kennedy, Johnson, Nixon, Clinton, and Obama – foul-mouthed drug users, liars, and adulterers.  And those are the ones we learned about due to advances in media and technology that have enabled us to get information about their private lives.  Besides, it is the Church's job to set the moral compass of society, not the president's.
