It’s similar but not the same.
For me it’s not a personal thing. It’s just that I reserve my hatred for truly evil people: murderers, rapists, dictators. Trump is IMO a bad guy, a jerk, a bigot, and I dislike him intensely. But he doesn’t fall into the hatred category.
Also for better or worse he’s my President. He’s the leader of the greatest country that has ever existed, and so ultimately I support him and want him to succeed in making this nation safe and prosperous. This morning I praised President Trump for his new healthcare proposals. I wish there were more instances in which I could praise him. I really don’t like being critical all the time.
As usual, what I wrote here is the honest truth. I don’t enjoy being called a liar, as Supermike has just done.
