I dont watch tv or read the news, but ive noticed people around here seem to really hate the guy. Why? How can he possibly be any different from every other politician in the country? What is so special about Trump that people suddenly now are up in arms? Are people just finally starting to wake up, or has trump done anything particularly egregious to warrant such ire?

He raped his ex-wife and got her a gag order so she couldn't talk about it. That's enough reason for me.

He has a unique combination of dreadful policy (like reviving the drug war, increasing deportation of Non-violent immigrants, pulling out of the Paris climate deal, selling arms to Saudi Arabia, his failed "travel ban," etc.) and sheer incompetence and stupidity.

That's a pretty succinct description. maybe add in his constant lies, like the Obama wiretap

Well as far as I can tell today, by the multiple topics on CE, it's because he doesn't proof read his tweets and doesn't like Kathy Griffen.

There is no short answer, so instead I'll just hit on the main major points.

- Wants to repeal obamacare, had no clear substitute in mind, proposed republican substitutes are worse than just repealing obamacare without a substitute
- shitting on Solar / Wind power trend to prop up his coal buddies
- drained the swamp, filled it with a bigger swamp
- supports abusive ISP practices and policies
- wants to provide billions of tax cuts to people who don't fucking need them despite promising to get rid of the loop holes that he was using to save similar amounts of money
- building a dumbass wall that won't work
- renewed war on drugs, reopening federal prosecution of legal marijuana

There is a much larger list of covfefe shit he's done so far, but those are the main points most people hate him, I feel

He's inept and has little understanding of the law or government.

He's embarrassing the country on the international stage.

He's undoing some of the best parts of this country (National parks)

He denies climate change.

He filled out his team with rich business people that can use their positions to screw over America to make them money.

His Muslim ban is the most un-American thing I've ever heard.

He tweets like a 12 year old girl.

Lol, what the hell are you talking about? I always thought conservative critiques of Obama were bull shit 90% of the time, but I'm not stupid enough to say they had NO reason to hate him.

They're scared of Muslims and Mexicans despite never meeting one and the fact that they live in Kansas and no terrorist would ever bother making an attack there as it wouldnt make the news.

You trivializing people's concern for immigration and national security, while making them feel unimportant, saying they live in flyover states, etc. is why he won.

Keep up the good work, acting like you're better because you don't live in Kansas (I don't either, could as well been an industrial state like Ohio or Michigan, just saying).

Yes I'm trivializing their bull shit concerns. Just because someone can have an opinion doesn't mean it's smart or worth respecing. Also Ohio is also a fly over state. Michigan I'm on the fence about but I'm leaning fly over.

It isn't about what trump did or didn't do. He got them to vote for him.

I wasn't arguing whether Trump "came through" for the little guy, just explaining why the "little guy" went and voted for Trump. You're trying to pick a fight with the wrong guy (plus I don't really give a fuck about Kansas either, I'm not from there and I'm not the president).

Wow this is trolling here. You're saying the whole population of Ohio, Kansas, doesn't make a fuck to you.

Like the only good doctors/engineers/whatever the fucks (people that build shit that you use also) only live in NY or LA or whatever beach town you're probably in. You're EXACTLY what keeps the Trump train rolling.

San Francisco* and no what I'm saying is uneducated fly over states that only exist because they are allowed to suck the federal tit voted in cheeto God because they're scared of the Mexican and Muslims they've never seen.

The states that voted for Trump are on average more dependent on the government and less educated than the states that voted against.

Except California didnt vote for cheeto emperor.

Also we happen to be one of the few states that could be alright on our own. Also one of the states that gives more than we receive to the Feds thus allowing farms in fly over states to be subsidized by the government while their farmers claim to be anti socialist.

Has he revived the drug war?

Deportation is still not as high as it was under Obama.

The paris climate deal was a terrible idea.

Saudi Arabia has been buying weapons from the US for decades now, Im sure.

The travel ban was proposed under Obama.

As for sheer stupidity and incompetence? There may be something there.

The "travel ban" Obama proposed is nothing like what Trump proposed, and simply educating yourself about the two would clear that up.

http://www.factcheck.org/2017/01/trumps-faulty-refugee-policy-comparison/

http://www.politifact.com/truth-o-meter/statements/2017/jan/30/donald-trump/why-comparing-trumps-and-obamas-immigration-restri/

Trump said, "My policy is similar to what President Obama did in 2011 when he banned visas for refugees from Iraq for six months."

The Obama administration in 2011 delayed processing Iraqi refugees for six months following evidence of a failed plot by two Iraqi refugees.

Trump’s executive order temporarily bars travel to the United States for all citizens from seven countries, and it is not in direct response to actions from citizens of those countries.

Furthermore, Iraqi refugees were nonetheless admitted to the United States during the 2011 suspension while Trump has put an indefinite ban on Syrian refugees.

We rate Trump’s claim Mostly False.
