There are a lot of problems with Trump and usually they're the same problems he points out in his opponents, which proves he is a pretty decent politician.
However, there's a reason we elect people to the office of President of the United States from another elected office, or at least from public service for the country, like the military. We need to know that the person has a concept of what the job is about.
This was and continues to be a major reason why I cannot support Trump. Based on all the things he has said, he really doesn't seem to have a clue about how the presidency works or what he would actually do when he got the Oval Office. At this crucial stage in history, that means a whole lot.
But of course all his schoolyard bully remarks certainly don't mark him as a good diplomat. Imagine Trump assessing Vladimir Putin's девушка du jour. Let's Make a Cold War Again1
