No, that's not it, Tipsy. It's true Trump has no business being president. He's a lousy game show host, for heaven sake! He only plays president on TV. He loves the power but has no interest in doing the job of being president.

Hate is a powerful word. Let's just say he's disliked for being so incompetent; for being so ignorant about what's entailed in being president; for being so ignorant of the Constitution and the Bill of Rights; for not turning over his tax returns; for committing a felony by paying off a porn star so she wouldn't spill the beans about his affair with her right before the 2016 election; for lying about Mexico paying to build the wall and tens of thousands of other things; for saying on camera that he would tell the truth if he can; for saying the media is "the enemy of the people," when the media are one of the few things that are keeping Trump from becoming an all-powerful dictator of this democratic republic; and for.... well, for hundreds of other words and actions Trump has unleashed upon this country.

What do they see that the American citizen fails to see? If they saw hate, why not stay in their own country, where they are already victims of hate?
In Central America, there is a lot more than hate directed at them. There is a huge amount of violence by uncontrollable gangs, especially rapes of women and girls.

And in reality there are very, very few of those people in the U.S. today no matter what the MEDIA, BLM and the Democrats (all the same btw) say.

Oh, you are so incorrect. Many people are extremely racist. In my own upper middle class neighborhood, there are many.

I see you are in CO, which is probably far different than the south. But your post liking the media to BLM and the Democrats seems to be quite political...

Come on. You call this forum real life? Its a forum of keyboard warriors.

The hate is caused by the media constantly fanning the flames. The Dems along with Obama did their share with the class warfare approach to politics. Be honest. Anyone who disagreed with Obama's politics, was labeled a racist by his supporters.

In real life very few people express their opinions like they do on here. On here they are anonymous, they are safe from accountability.

And that is what is wrong with the USA. Won't acknowledge its past misdeeds, to heal the wounds, and compensate those that were affected. Germany did so to Israel until 1989, and also paid Poland, Russia, Greece and other countries. Why not? What is different between the genocide of Jews by the Nazis and the genocide of Native Americans by the United States??

Genocide is genocide. It was a calculated policy by the US government.

Look it up, but there were reparations paid by the US gov’t some years ago to tribes. And were given land near Mt. Rushmore.
