Let us ASSUME for one moment that everythng don juan Trump says is true. That he has NEVER lied. Why do so many people despise him?

Why have so many people in all walks of life in so many countries conspired against him and pray to GOD he goes away..far away...forever? What is it about this angelic adorable honorable spiritual moral GODLY man that infuriates so many? A regular saint is he. A regular martyr. A perfect man. God's plan, right? Is it due to  just plain old jealousy because don juan Trump is so precious and beloved? Is it Satan-inspired since we KNOW don juan Trump is God's favorite child? Just ask him..don juan not God..and he will tell you so. Anyone ever research this phenomenon and figure it out? In all of the history of the world no one has been so genuinely and completely despised as don juan Trump. Believe me. Trust me. Everyone says so.

    Some of the reasons why Trump is so hated are that he beat Hillary Clinton in the election. Another reason is that Trump isn't part of the political establishment. He's not part of the "business as usual" crowd. He speaks his mind and he isn't politically correct like so many of the spineless liberals are. He has kept many of the campaign promises. That in itself has put a burr under the saddle of a whole passel of people. He's not a coward or a lap dog. He has disrupted the liberal agenda in a major way. The hatred some folks have for Trump go's beyond the ordinary. It's a caustic, deep-seated and violent hatred that rears its ugly head on a daily basis. Many people, including a few here in Answer Mug, have no qualms about saying they wish Trump was dead. I just cannot imagine what it must be like to live with that much hatred in their lives. As always, just my opinion. :)

    Trump could have run unopposed, but as he is no more than a "trousered ape" people of real sensibilities would still not vote for him.

    The trousered ape, to borrow a phrase from C.S. Lewis, is a fascinating conceptualization of the state of education in modern society. In perhaps his most controversial work, The Abolition of Man (1943), Lewis contends that certain approaches in education and training leave students clearly lacking depth of understanding. This deficit then allows the mind and heart to content itself with the anchoring of beliefs around feelings. Once feelings become the standard measurement of judgment it destroys life’s ultimate search for truth. Lewis points out that the product of such methodologies is merely a “trousered ape,” a man he describes as so shallow in soul and mind and beneath any real sensibility that he can look at the ocean and conclude it is nothing more than, “so many million tons of cold salt water.” In his limited conceptualization he misses the mystery of the sea, its living creatures, its exotic plants, its vast space upon the earth, and its possible secrets pertaining to life itself. Further Lewis posits that the eventuality of the dumbing down of man is the abolition of man. Wrong teaching leads to wrong values, wrong philosophical foundations, wrong purposes, wrong doctrine, and so forth.

    Lewis’ horrific conclusion however is not that this tragedy is taking place, but that perhaps these “trousered apes” are being manufactured – that reducing men to utter mindlessness is a deliberate objective of certain types of educators. He suggests, “The urban blockhead may be precisely the kind of man they really wish to produce.” It is about power, and it is much easier for powerseekers to control people devoid of understanding, depth, and uninterested in the real meanings or consequences of their beliefs.

    And 18 months since the election, your point is?

    Sorry Rosie, but you, Sharonna, your friends, and a bunch of media types on outlets such as MSNBC do not constitute "so many people despising him." You all echo each other and wishfully think that will somehow change the reality of him being president. But guess what? It's been 18 months and counting since the election and way past time to get over it as the rest of us have.

  • Those who are delusional rarely get over it.

    Well, as your President Trump might say, and as some on here seem to demonstrate, there are delusional people on both sides.

    It's not a question of "getting over it," it's about never letting it happen again.  That requires we keep what happened in the minds of the electorate.

    ...a new study by University of Kansas professors David N. Smith and Eric Hanley concludes that, “The decisive reason that white, male, older and less educated voters were disproportionately pro-Trump is that they shared his prejudices and wanted domineering, aggressive leaders.”  (Internet, yesterday, Chicago Tribune."

    Yes, Rosie, it might. But nobody can change the past.

    Maybe so, but what difference does that make now? As I said, the election was 18 months ago, and you're crying over spilled milk. Time to move on. Each election in the future will be a separate event.

    The hatred of some folks runs so deep that it keeps them from getting over it and it erases the part of their memory that tells them how to move on.

    Granting you your premise that "so many people despise him," isn't it funny that he still somehow managed to win the election and has a 44% approval rating on www.realclearpolitics.com? Can you prove that more folks despise him than the number who despise Presidents Bush and Obama and Hillary Clinton? I bet you can't!

    And why are you still debating the 2016 election in the first place? In case you haven't noticed, it's now 2018.     This post was edited by Stu Spelling Bee at May 30, 2018 2:55 AM MDT
