Full disclosure, I am not a Donald Trump supporter.

I am an independent Democratic voter, but to my Republican and Independent friends, I would like to pose a question about a candidate whose former advisers have either gone to jail or publicly spoken against him, who disregards his campaign advisers’ advice to stay on message and discuss policy only and who has pledged to replace government experts with MAGA loyalists.

Would you want to work for a man who dismisses your knowledge? Do you want to pay taxes without representation? Do you want to invite an authoritarian government into your bedroom?
