46. I don't hate Trump.....

Sat Nov 26, 2016, 09:06 PM

Nov 2016

I intensely loathe everything about him, everything he stands for, everything he says or does, or appears to believe, with every fiber of my being. But I don't hate him. I loathe his misogyny, his racism, his birtherism, his attitude toward immigrants and Muslims, his highly unwarranted narcissism, and all of his anti-democratic policy views, his bullying of others he considers lesser than himself (which is every human being who ever walked this earth ), and a thousand other things--I loathe them all. But I do not hate him.

I will oppose with all my heart and energy every thing he tries to do as president of this country that weakens us as a people and as a nation. But I do not hate him.
