Ten-year-old Hillary Clinton volunteer Lexi has a lot of thoughts and feelings about why Donald Trump should not be president, and she wasn't the least bit afraid to share them in an interview with the Huffington Post Saturday. "Number one, he doesn't have any experience, at all. And he sits there and thinks, 'Oh I'm Mr. Donald Trump, I know everything,' which is sort of like my brother," Lexi said, imitating the Republican presidential frontrunner. "He's just rich, a lot of people just vote for him because they think they'll get some money, too. But that's not it. You think you're going to get the money, but that's not the case."
As for Trump's xenophobia, Lexi says "it's ridiculous because I mean, look at these people, your best friend, you may not know that they're Muslim or Jewish." And if all those reasons aren't convincing enough to not vote for Trump, Lexi suggests the real icing on the cake is his hair. "If you don't vote, then Mr. Donald Trump will be president. I don't think that's his real hair, being president," she says. "His hair, look at it! Look at it! It's gross. I can't believe that's his real hair."
