I truly believe this is largely the case - even though is it my "religion" to think that most people have their better angels.
He doesn't seem to have them. There are many names for that tendency, but I think the old-fashioned one fits best. Selfish. Consumed by his own selfishness.
If it is true as to what the "best people" claim is the meaning of life, he is constantly both expressing and living the opposite. It is made much worse by the scale of it. It wasn't enough to ruin his own relationships, his own businesses, the city of Atlantic City, poor people who bought his Frauds (Trump U) and all the other stuff. Now he has to ruin as much of the country and world as humanly possible for a single reason....that being to make sure he hits the headlines as much as possible.
"You can do anything at all, and still your strange advantage over the majority of people, who are kept in line by their consciences, will most likely remain undiscovered."
Well, there is one possible positive there! Maybe many deplorables are not very deplorable....but rather are "kept in line by their consciences" - that is, they can't imagine the truth being the truth about the person, so they give the benefit of the doubt?
"And that’s just a sampling of her far-reaching international travel. The only comparison would be Eleanor Roosevelt, the original "first lady of the world."
"She met often with women’s groups, virtually on every trip, holding roundtable discussions that usually centered on women’s rights, health care or child care.
• After meeting with Yunus in Bangladesh that day in April 1995, using mircocredit as a tool to fight world poverty became one of Clinton’s biggest international initiatives in her travels as first lady. The issue of microcredit appears on Clinton’s schedules more than 50 times."
Now, you may not care about children and women and poverty and all those silly things. But in this world we do use certain measurements...and, using those, she has fought for many such issues...gave Human Rights speech to power (while in China), is responsible for moving the ball forward for children (and even our) health care, etc.
No comparison. She may be tough, ruthless, smart, political and many other things. She may be wrong on a lot of issues. But, c'mon, her approval rating as Senator and Sec. of State were off the charts. The people know.
"Clinton has enjoyed high approval ratings for her job as Senator within New York, reaching an all-time high of 72 to 74 percent approving"
Try as you may you cannot compare that with 39% who approve of Trump or the fact that people in his own and neighboring states voted heavily against him.
No, the left - and all decent people, really - don't like people in power who are devoid of any ethical standards (or basic knowledge or civility, for that matter).

Terribly coincidental that both Trump and Putin are on the list at the bottom of the article.
seriously the left has done exactly that for decades. the issue isn't that Donald Trump is soulless. the issue is the left doesn't like having a republican play outside the "rules".
No, the issue is Trump has no soul. Remember what he said about Saudi Arabia when it was revealed their scumbag sheik/prince/dictator had a man who was critical of him butchered alive? Trump didn't care, he said we are still going to send arms to them, he could care less about human rights abuses.
And remember what he said about his BFF Kim in N. Korea? He said "they fell in love", he had absolutely no concern about his murderous rule. Everything is a transaction to Trump, he is only concerned with adulation from others (people like you) and making as much money as he can.
