I wish I were a cool-headed psychiatrist and could intuit why so many people have a visceral hatred of Donald Trump … so much so that they would disgard their moral compass or even act against their own better interests … both of which are prices the never-Trumpers seem more than willing to pay.
As an amateur shrink I feel that this deep-seated hatred is not based on the obvious. It is not really Trump’s “different”appearance. It is not due to his “ill-gotten”wealth. It is not his clumsy speaking style. It is not his personal habits, including his trysts. It is not his compulsion to speak his mind. It is not his vanity. These are symptoms … not the “root cause.”
Yes, all these are claimed rationales … but are not fundamental. So what is it?
My best amateur guess is that anyone who considers themselves as in-the-know, find Trump’s policies were so unconventional as to be dangerous. And … the worst part … is that he had been mostly right!
And, salt in the wound, is so many of the we deplorables support this charlatan. We apparently are ignoring all these elites’ world-view “insights.”
So, dear Pilgrim, the elites must, if their solutions are to survive, attribute every evil attribute imagined to the orange man … all in the hope that we rube Americans will see the error of their ways … and join the righteous in canceling this clown.
This is the best I can do Pilgrim …
STAND UP FOR MAGA!
