And, maybe, they just think you are just a left wing kook...

I had hoped that when Barack Obama was elected we would not only continue our healing from sad historical periods (slavery, and the hard times of civil unrest), but our nation would also be united, blessed, and even better, for we are all Americans. Instead, it was further divided. The division is worse, tolerance is a forgotten word, and feelings are hurt over nothing.

I personally know a few who voted for the Fraud simply BECAUSE of what you hoped.
I also remember reading quite a bit of exactly what the Fraud stood for, and saw Big Media’s fawning before his election, and knew that what you hoped for would never come to pass with the Fraud in office.
Rush had some very specific predictions that came true, such as there would never be allowed any criticism of the Fraud because of the color of his skin, which came to pass for eight long years.
The Fraud and his “wife” PROUDLY used racism to try to divide and destroy all for which America stands.

Shocking as it may be, it appears that people now think it is okay to take other people’s stuff, damage other people’s property, and even hurt other people physically.
Shocking? Now? People have been okay with taking other people's stuff forever, or at least since they realized that they could get away with it by proxy via government redistribution. With Obama, it merely came out of the closet, as did other... behaviors and attitudes.
It's not her fault of course, it's those other people.
Maybe they are concerned that she is purchasing 'friendship' with insincere gifts so that she may task them with who-knows-what. Not suggesting that she is, just that well, I've encountered such 'helpful' types. They totally twist and abuse the concept of 'love your neighbor as yourself.'
If she is doing good deeds for the sake of doing good deeds, not to manipulate people, then there's no need to be resentful. And it would matter not who is president.
Gifts should not have expectations attached. Otherwise they are not gifts, they are advanced payments for services/return favors that the receiver is unknowingly obligating himself and accepting remuneration.

Yeah, that paragraph tells a lot, doesn’t it?
