I don't need to read another person's opinion regarding our POTUS. I have my own, and that's simply the way it is.

I am personally 100x more weary of the the left/right finger pointing in-fighting BS. One man isn't the problem, but it's the people working the system that needs an overhaul.

However liberals do feel free to criticize the president, and this particular one leaves himself wide open to criticism, there is so much to criticize he makes it extremely easy.

Yes, Pence is actually more dangerous in a lot of ways - more extreme and actually seems to believe in his hateful ways. But politically much more savvy and if he had a majority of both houses of Congress, would have actually been far more destructive. As bad as Trump is, his incompetence has been a saving grace to some extent.

If Pence had the same policies, I can assure you that there would be a similar reaction to them.

As for how people feel about Trump, it's not hate, more like disgust for most people. When someone's dog takes a dump or vomits in front of your door most people don't hate the dog, but what the dog does can be disgusting and you don't really want to see it around.

I see this word 'hate' a lot, but that is much too simplistic an explanation for what people think and feel.

Personally I think he's funny, and he reminds me of an old friend, but I do not like him personally because he is a flawed character and he is an embarrassment to have as president.

I also think he has criminal intent, from lifelong practice. He didn't come from nowhere.

His policies? ... well he has disappointed me, because I did like some of what he said on the campaign trail.

Nope, the clueless are the people, along with the cows, in all those red areas. The land that doesn't get to vote.

And Trump has made it abundantly clear that he is not and has no interest in being my president. He attacks me and others like me all the time.

Yeah, cities where people are not clueless. These are where the high paying jobs are. Pretty smart don't you think

And how exactly does he do that?

It’s hard to say what stage liberals are in. But Trump is probably President through ‘24
