Its not that he doesn’t “like” people. He just feels so superior to them.
It's hard to like stupid people, so it's logical that you won't like people if you think you're smarter than everyone else. He'll either be smarmy or condescending, depending on the circumstances and audience, but won't enter into a conversation with someone else as an equal.
There is no genuine spontaneous social interaction, just calculated resonses and manipulations.
I haven't figured out what it is; nothing makes sense. Often I wonder if he despises people because he thinks the rest of us are as shallow, hateful, and selfish as he is. Other times I wonder if he went into politics specifically because he hates people and his political office gives him the power to harm far more people than he could hurt as a local community organizer. Or does he like people, just not productive people and especially productive Americans who hold jobs and cling to God and to guns? I don't know if he feels so superior that he thinks he is blessing us by attempting to seize control of every aspect of our lives, or if he feels like an incompetent fraud in over his head and assumes the rest of us are as bad. All I know is that whatever is happening inside his head should frighten every sane person in the world.
The light of the body is the eye: if therefore thine eye be single, thy whole body shall be full of light.But if thine eye be evil, thy whole body shall be full of darkness. If therefore the light that is in thee be darkness, how great is that darkness!
Matthew 6:22-23
