(26,793 posts)with his marital scandal, but paid little attention to it.
Became really aware of him with the Apprentice. Watched 2 or 3 episodes and quickly disliked his arrogance. Came across to me as a puffed up con artist. I could not comprehend the eagerness of contestants to work for such a BS buffoon.
I began to really snicker at him when Obama roasted him at the press corps dinner.
The contempt came during the 2016 campaign. The loathing began in his first month in office with the deliberately cruel and sudden immigration ban that left thousands stranded after selling all they had to buy tickets to the US when they were vetted.
It grew exponentionally since then.
I recognized his fascist tendencies in 2016. Tried not to fall into deep hatred for my sake, not his, but failed. I loathe him, but refuse to get bogged down in it. Best remedy for me is to focus on what we will do without him.
So my loathing of him was a process that grew the more I knew about him. Zero redeeming qualities.
