of course he hates facts: if he weren't, he'd be far from bankrupt.

This is why you two oppose Trump? First of all, if he opposed facts (as such) he Wouldn't  be a billionaire. Secondly, his stance on veterans is much more telling, not in it's content (which is technically correct), but in it's content:

For example:

Mr. Trump is absolutely correct being a prisoner of war does not automatically make you a hero. (For example PVT Wildman may have been asleep on watch...)
It is Lt. Cdr. McCain's behavior AS a POW that makes him a hero. (All evidence indicates he was about to be told to explore "other career paths" before he was captured by the viet cong).

nah, my post is just a reference to the corporate bankruptcies this guy keeps having.

As to why I'm not a fan of him: there's obviously more to it that that: his stance on immigration, his lack of a credible plan for dealing with foreign policy (and what idiot spills his beans about his plans for ISIS?), no obvious reason to trust that he'd do the right thing economically (sorry, being a businessman doesn't necessarily make you an economic expert: just look at Warren Buffett), etc.
