   If Trump reads this, Here

   " I will give you 100 dollars to the charity of your choice, Trump if you give your high school and college report card" America will be proud of you if you release your information. Then, I can make a fool out of you." PUT TRUMP IN THIS SITUATION. PUT TRUMP WHEN HE IS TRYING TO RUN FOR PRESIDENT WHILE HE HAS ONE F IN HIS ECONOMIC CLASS IN COLLEGE.

   "Obama is the most transparent president of all time." -Trump's quote of 2012.

   There are no proof that he is hiding anything. When a person wants to run for president, they absolutely have to show proof. Check and Balance must take place in the three branches of government. That is why there are no criminals/mobster from another country running for the presidential position. Trump is absolutely mistaken and struck with grief that his counterpart "rich Republican CEO like" friend lost the presidential debate a week ago. Thus, I believe that you, Trump should not treat him differently from other prior presidents that have taken office as president of the United States.

   For instance, George W. Bush could have been called the most transparent president too due to the fact that he did not reveal all of the information wanted by the general public like birth certificate, college grade transcript, and passport. Just because of Obama's party preference and color. Let me ask the public, How many presidents from 1989 to 2008 showed their birth certificate or college transcript. That is a valuable question because the answer would be less than one.

   Overall, I want to announce to the whole world reading this precise and unoffensive comment that Trump's action is not considered professional and somewhat kind of "childish". "You might be rich, but you hold no power to challenge the Federal Government or the Chief Executive". -Quote by me.

   this is my issue with some (not all, many are good people) of the 1%.they think that money can buy everything and everyone. "I can't imagine that for $5 million that he wouldn't do it' , in Trump mind he really does think the above, he can not (and i believe ihe does not) have empathy, real morality and ethics as a human being. I honestly feel sorry for him, as he never and will never be happy person inside. Money does not buy true morality, empathy for your follow human being or genuine kindness. I hope I am wrong, and I hope that he gets some inner piece and true self esteem, instead of the anger and suoerficial inner confidence which is not based on wealth, power ot fame as all those thing can make you happy for a short period (like drugs) but in the long term they may do the opposite (and it is often the case). Good luck to him and I wish he experence true happiness and inner content.
