Do I agree with Trump on everything? Absolutely not. But let’s not hate and be against him on every single thing. Want a change / don’t like him? Try to run for public office yourself! Convince the voters to vote for you.
You can dislike a man's character or a man, his policies, his behaviour and not be jealous of him. Human beings can have a range of emotions without being jealous of someone.

I have disliked him for years, not going to like him now because you want me to. Because I don't like him, doesn't mean I want to be President.


I think Trump is a nasty human being who has managed not to destroy the USA -- see I said something nice.

I friends daughter who is home from college was telling me that a gay friend was scared to death when Trump was elected. She believed that she was going to be harassed, mugged, assaulted etc because Trump was elected. What are these kids being taught and who is teaching them these things?

I don't hate Donald Trump. I think he doesn't have the mentality or temperament to be a good President, so I don't think he's fit for the job, but that's not hatred.

I certainly have not ever been jealous of the man in any way. There is nothing he has I want or have ever wanted, and I don't want to live my life the way he lives his, and have never wanted that either.

I never judge anyone's private life; to me, that's not a Christian thing to do, but I will criticize any person who represents me and my nation when I feel that person is doing harm to my country or behaving in a way that trashes my country's dignity. I dislike anyone who dishonors my nation's people and tries to divide them for their own purposes.

But that's not hatred. Dislike, disdain, and other emotions aren't hatred. Each is something unto itself.

You could not be more mistaken. I can't speak for everyone who is a Democrat or Liberal, but I could care less if the guy/gal in there is a Republican, Democrat, or Independent. What I do care about is the way they represent this country and the way the conduct themselves while they are in that seat.

History should tell you that for 4 years, one party is in there, and then the other party takes over and keeps it for 4 or 8 more years, then it switches back again. Always been that way, always will. What is different this time is that we have an unqualified, unfit, unstable, self promoting fool in there, and he has caused so much damage in only two years that it may never be fully repaired.

This man thinks of this Presidency just like it was his silly little reality show, because that is about the depth of his intelligence and comprehension. We need someone in there who is willing to grow in the job and actually work for all Americans, not just himself.

once in a while? obama and company, and in fact pretty much all democrats got where they are by lying, and on a regular basis. in fact if a democrat ever told the truth, they would melt down like the wicked witch of the west.
