The name Trump has become nails on a blackboard.

If there is a more cringe-worthy sound that no one can tolerate, I don't know of it. It might be the ultimate description of how many of us feel when we hear Trump's voice. But it's so much more than his voice. It really doesn't need to be explained to all who know what this creature is, what he represents, and the pure evil he embodies.

It's rare that an assault on our ears, brains and an attack on our souls can be described so accurately.

Note: "Nails on a blackboard" was mentioned here by DUer, asiliveandbreathe, who allowed me to post this and also said that description was what "we all know the cringe worthy sound..like the scene in JAWS..at the town meeting..regarding the opening of the beach..when Quint dragged his nails on the chalkboard..." Couldn't agree more.
