Trump is Berlusconi

Before clicking on this video of Silvio Berlusconi, it is obvious it's not going to be professional. Not only is it unprofessional from Italy's longest serving Prime Minister but it's also extremely objectifying for the woman, but also for her position as a police officer. Berlusconi is notorious for being a goof, or a fun leader that astray from other country leaders. In some people's eyes, Berlusconi could be a humorous and outgoing guy they'd love to go out with. But, there is a huge difference between hanging out and running a country. 


In 2010, Berlusconi was charged and convicted but after an appeal found not guilty of having sexual relations with an underage girl for money. Who, he also abused his leadership power and had her released from jail early for theft. This is a far out act who nobody would expect from a leader, even Berlusconi. But, Berlusconi has a long history of unequal and derogatory comments to women. Which sounds a lot like one of America's possible new president, Donald Trump.

Donald Trump has been caught numerous times making comments on people's appearance, especially women. Throughout his old show, Celebrity Apprentice, Trump continues to convince women that the only way they can reach success is by sexual appeal. Berlusconi is also well publicly known for going on TV shows and making many appearances as is Donald Trump. In my opinion, this is how they both get so many votes and become as popular as they are in the political world. For those who do not keep up with politics, which is many more than most people think, they vote with the name that sounds most familiar which is of course the name coming up on their TV, radios, magazines, etc. 

Besides the two of them being extremely obnoxious with women, they both also set their leadership goals as saving their country from debt and money problems. But, they both have had many failed and bankrupt companies. How can we expect them to fix money problems when they can't even save their own bills?

If we don't want a sexist, obnoxious, and secretive leader like Silvio Berlusconi, then don't vote for his American twin, Donald Trump.
