Trying to figure out why they hated Trump so much
American Thinker ^ | 17 Dec, 2020 | Andrea Widburg

When multiple people send you the same list, it's wise to pay attention — and in this case, the list reveals so much about Trump-supporters and Trump-haters.

American Thinker gets lots of emails. What showed up repeatedly in the American Thinker inbox on Wednesday was a long list of the possible reasons why leftists hate Donald Trump and deride him as the worst person and the worst present ever to hold that office. Each of those reasons is an accomplishment that all fair and honorable people should find impressive. The post not only highlights what Trump was able to do despite nonstop resistance from within the administration, from Congress, and from the media, but also highlights the left's absence of values.

The list appears at the Abyssus Abyssum Invocat / Deep Calls To Deep blog, home of a retired Roman Catholic bishop, the bishop emeritus of Corpus Christi, Texas. The bishop got the list, credited to E.P. Unim, after it showed up in one Rip McIntosh's impressive newsletters.

The list resonated with me because of a conversation I had with a young leftist who told me there's no evidence of fraud. When I answered with information about eyewitness evidence, data analyses, or the fact that every single metric in the world (enthusiasm, oil prices, cookie sales, you name it) supported a Trump blowout, he replied, "That's ridiculous. The proof that there's no fraud is that 81 million people voted for Biden because that's how much they hated Trump."

That's essentially E.P. Unim's premise:

A list of some of Trump's hateful accomplishments:

Perhaps you dislike that he signed a law ending the gag-order on pharmacists that prevented them from sharing money-saving options on prescriptions?

Is your dislike for President Trump based on the fact that he signed the Save Our Seas Act, which funds $10 million per year to clean tons of plastic and garbage from the ocean?

Did you dislike that he signed a bill for airports to provide breastfeeding stations for nursing moms?

How about the fact that he signed the biggest wilderness protection and conservation bill in a decade, designating 375,000 acres as protected land, was that why you dislike him?Did you dislike that he loves America and puts Americans first?

Did you dislike that he made a gay man the ambassador to Germany and then asked him to clean up national security and un-classify as much of it as possible for transparency?

Did you dislike that he's kept almost every campaign promise (with zero support from Congress who work against him daily!) plus 100 more promises because Washington was much more broken than he or any of us thought?

Do you dislike that he works for free, donating his entire $400,000 salary to different charities?

Did you feel that he did this for four years because he was "showboating?"

Do you dislike that he's done more for the black community than every other President?

Do you dislike that he listened to senator Scott and passed Invest In Opportunity Zones to help minorities?

Maybe they want the middle-class to keep paying taxes and let them decide how to spend it to benefit themselves.

How dare the middle-class object or vote someone in who looks out for their interests!

He’s the embodiment of everything they hate. White, Male, Heterosexual, Christian, Conservative, married to an attractive white female. And he’s blond to boot. From the self loathing white to the racist black and or hispanic, from the Muslim to the Gay, Lesbo, or tranny, ...pick your tribe, they hate him for those reasons. Pretty easy to figure out. We ain’t fools.

The answer is quite easy. He defeated Hillary Clinton. She was to be the first woman president who also had strong left-leaning credentials.

Its all propaganda and mind-control from the left to get back into power.

Then there’s that whole peace in the Middle East thing. Many Muslim nations are now recognizing Israel. Soon its only enemies will be Iran and its puppets.

they HATE the beloved President
because they dont have RAPE tapes controlling him
(like Bidens and Clintons) or
a ChInAwife-honeypot controlling him or
$$ to buy their way with him.

Pres. Trump deserves 4 terms because of these
criminals who ruined his first.

I was listening to one of those ‘undecided’ (but really decided) panelist discussions a while back. One lady stuck in my mind. She didn’t like Trump because he was ‘too masculine’. And masculine men made her feel threatened.

She struck me as a virtue-signaling follower of militant feminism that promotes men as emasculated ATMs, to be controlled and led around by a nosering. The same attitude most of the female talking heads on MSM have.

I've had a former 'friend' actually tell me since I was a Trump supporter I should leave the country.

I reminded him he spent years in the military, swore the oath to defend the Constitution, and now he finds that those who do not agree with his politics should leave the country?

I told him it was a shame he wore the uniform if that is how he felt about fellow Americans.

He claimed, since he lost a son n Afghanistan, that he could say what he wanted.

I explained he couldn't use the blood of his son as an excuse, get called out for it, and then try to play the victim.

Haven't heard from him since.

The utter contempt for President Trump was the result of five years (including the 2016 primary season) of non-stop gaslighting by the MSM. It really started with the "pu$$y grabbing" audio leak. They also took Trump's New York style of hyperbole and purposely twisted it by taking it literally. Trump's tounge-in-cheek "Russia, if you're listening, if you have Hillary's emails..." became a straight-faced proof of Trump colluding with the Russians.

Trump's "I wonder if we could disinfect the bloodstream" became "inject bleach."

I could go on and on, but it makes my blood boil too much. I have argued with my liberal friends for four years on Facebook about each and every one of these issues, and they never look at the actual Trump quotes, they only regurgitate the CNN version of what happened, and take it as fact.

I will say this: Hatred for Trump is so strong on the Left that it literally impossible to change their minds. They hate Trump, they know he is "Orange Hitler" but can only cite twisted reporting to back it up, and they would have voted for Biden in droves just to vote against Trump.

That’s the one — but there’s more. He defeated Hillary Clinton IN SPITE of the massive cheating they knew 100% that would work. And it didn’t.

They don’t like President Trump because he stands for essentially good and healthy policies, making all of the moral and legal corruption look embarrassing to us again. Additionally, he shows how much the MSM, GOP-E, Democrats, and Deep State has hated all of us for many decades, as they raped us and our country of every shred of goodness it could get away with for their benefit.

Thanks to a 25 year career in “front line” medicine I’ve come in contact with many,*many* psychopaths as well as many,*many* schizophrenics. What I learned from these encounters is that it’s a waste of time trying to make sense of their thinking,their attitudes,their actions. I found it best to just steer clear of them as much as possible.

Hated? Past tense?

That’s gaslighting.

Two Groups hate President Trump:

1. The Deep State that have been financially and power wise stymied.

2. People / Groups following the Nazi plan to take over power. I am watching Hitler’ Circle of Evil on Netflix. Every action taken by the Nazis to take over Germany are mirrored by the Clinton / Obama / other American haters. Worth watching the first 3 to 4 episodes, I think you will see the similarities.

Why waste a lot of time on analysis and re-analysis and micro-analysis ad infinitum? They hate him because they serve Evil.
