(39 posts)I echo the sentiments of all the above - including the ugly ones. I can't even stand the sight or sound of him and most of the psychopathic assholes he's surrounded himself with. So I didn't watch.
I literally cannot think of one redeeming quality about him. Not one. And I really did try to.
As much I hated Bush - esp. since the end of his first term, and more so Cheney, Rumsfeld, etc. - he wasn't nearly the despicable person that Trump is. Ignorant, partisan, spiteful, yes. But I could never imagine him mocking disabled people or bragging about making teenage girls uncomfortable while he waltzes through their locker room. With all the fear-mongering, I never heard him accuse a political opponent of being the founder of a terrorist organization. And I don't remember swastikas and vandalized cemeteries appearing all over the place when he was (s)elected.
It's probably unhealthy to harbor all this hate, but let's face it, we've seen nothing like this scumbag in our lifetimes, and we can only hope that we never will again.
