Modern day politicians have earned an infamous reputation of engaging in political correctness. This has been evidenced throughout a plethora of elections time and time again. In order to win votes, and ultimately the office they are seeking, politicians decide to typically avoid issues that are massively controversial and even engage in pandering to certain ethnic groups. Political correctness does not only occur when people run for office. It has festered in multiple facets of our society and our government. Political correctness is a cancer that must be eradicated immediately. The first step to achieving this goal is by having a President who does not engage in such foolery. President Trump is the first Commander in Chief (in decades) who does not subscribe to the toxic ideology of political correctness.

For starters, President Trump's decision to stay away from political correctness speaks to his honesty and authenticity. Those who partake in being politically correct are known to be phony and hypocritical. President Trump says what he means and he means what he says. The plight of illegal immigration is a prime example. Illegal immigrants cost federal and local taxpayers billions of dollars annually and many of them engage in criminal activity. These are facts. However, throughout the 2016 election, no politician (other than President Trump) wanted to discuss these truths. When President Trump first brought up illegal immigration, the media went into a frenzy. How dare the future President actually discuss a matter that will vastly impact the people of this nation! Despite the claims of left wing liberals, it is not racist to disallow illegal immigration. Political correctness is a scourge because it halts the discussion of important matters.

Furthermore, the President's lack of political correctness serves as a relief because he does not have to pander to anyone in order to receive support from certain demographics. Trump won the election and he did so with support from whites, blacks, hispanics, latinos, old, young, rich, and poor. Many Americans have tired of politicians who pitifully attempt to pander as a means of securing votes. A great example of this is Hillary Clinton who is known for her pathetic mishaps at pandering to African Americans. One of the most cringe worthy instances is when she told a hip hop host that she "keeps hot sauce in her bag, swag." This conduct is flagrantly disgusting and unappealing to intelligent voters of all races. Unlike Clinton, President Trump's message was clear, concise, and free of political correctness. This is ultimately what led to him winning the election. Voters collaboratively came out and voted for him because he was a man they believed in.
