The constant attacks on women. The contant stripping away of reproductive rights. The constant belittling of women's value, stating that any success a women finds is merely because of DEI. The constant push of the narrative that women should be at home raising kids, yet the very women who are at home raising kids are facing extreme economic hardship and they are being stripped of benefits that help them get by and put food on the table for their children.
The constant racist comments while ignoring that racism does in fact exist in our country. The erasure of Civil Rights and noteable people in the Civil Rights Movement. And again belittlement that any success by Black Americans must be because of DEI.
The gross and inhumane attacks on all non white immigrants. The neo nazis and Antisemitism. The constant attacks on transgender people who are such a small part of the population and do absolutely no harm to anyone.
I'm sick and tired of it all. I believe that most Americans are also sick and tired of it.

(1,491 posts)I went out to eat recently with my husband and son. An older, white gentleman seated across from us with a younger woman went on and on about how Trump is wrecking this country. He ranted nearly the whole meal about high prices, poor treatment of immigrants, destroying our farms and small businesses, and how all Trump does is lie. I live in Missouri, and to hear this while out and about was a surprise, but a really nice one. I think you are right, Quiet Em, everyone is sick to death of Trump!

(154 posts)As you mentioned, it includes women, immigrants and all non-white folk. But he clearly has contempt for most of his voters. He "loves the uneducated". And the gullible. And the easily misled. He just doesn't say the quiet part out loud, but I think his contempt for them is strong.
And let's not forget, he hates those who do not support him. So, add it all up, and I suspect the disdain is for about 90% of the population. And yes, you are not the only one sick of it.

I have been composing my letters to my Democratic senator and representative and it will be in the tone of outrage. There is a blueprint for what is happening and it is from the Third Reich.
