I despise Trump with every fiber of my being.

I'll bet a lot of active duty and retired soldiers love him, though. I saw so much racism, sexism, homophobia, backwardness, provincialism, and ignorance while I was in the Army. I'm sure the soldiers who possessed those traits absolutely love having Trump as POTUS.
