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:

That sounds like good advice. There sure seems to be mental issues involved with all of their rage. The more Trump did what was clearly the right things the more they raged.

The reason that Trump is hated in Washington is simple and two-fold. First, he is an outsider, not part of “the club.” He did not work his way through the ranks of politics and did not make the required “connections” with his own party or the Dems. Second, he threatened, and nearly succeeded, in uncovering the massive and pervasive rot that is in Washington, D.C. But even with all his efforts he could not fully crack the wall of filth and slime that is federal government from top to bottom. It took an illegal election to end this threat.

......a deluded leftist says there's "no evidence" of voter fraud even as the actual evidence mounts up.......:
<><> eyewitnesses,
<><> multiple data analyses,
<><> tampered Dominion voting systems,
<><> votes with no connection to actual voters,
<><> and so on and so forth ad infinitum, ad nauseaum.
The non compis mentis lefty replied: "The proof that there's no fraud is that 81 million people Trump haters voted for Biden."

The ones who voted for Biden/Harris in record numbers are the dead and buried, amorphous algorithms, and phantom voters out of a China print shop?
Thinking Americans DO NOT believe Biden “set a record “ for the number of votes in a presidential election.

There are any number of elements that seem implausible:
<><> Biden’invisible campaign conducted while he hunkered down in his basement,
<><> his startling inability to attract anyone to his campaign stops.

Harris is even more difficult to fathom. She is heralded as pulling in more voters than President Obama.
<><> Harris was forced out of the presidential primary
<><> her support had dropped to less than one percent AMONG DEMOCRATS.
<><> in their first appearance together, NO ONE showed up.

The elitist, unmitigated contempt in which Biden Democrats hold Americans was never more apparent.

The Dems want ultimate power.

They are now totalitarians.

President Trump stopped their rise Dead in its tracks.Wahts more he succeeded in bringing America back to where it should be.That really made them hate him.

Now lets fight them beginning here.

Pass out the HCQ and Ivermectin, THE ANTI LEFT SUPER DRUGS

Well worth the read:

HCQ

Ivermectin:

https://freerepublic.com/focus/f-news/3914200/posts

Dosage Chart:

With Ivermectin as prophylaxis, the restaurants and bars all over the country could be opened. But the left wants to remove our Constitutional right of free assembly and free travel.

Its simple really. The fight against these traitors needs to begin seriously.

We have a bunch of genocidal maniacs in Big Pharm, FDA, and NIH running our country on behalf of CHYNA via Joe Biden, who is as treasonous as anyone previously executed for their crimes against America!

We now love in a totalitarian state. We either throw off the chains of lick their hands.

Trump interfered with the globalist plan for the UN SDGs, WEF’s The Great Re-Set, the UN’s “climate” deindustrialization - all one and the same in reality.

FakeNewsMSM incited the hatred...and violence against Trump supporters; the “hatred” would not exist to the degree it does, without their 24/7 extraordinary attacks over the past four years.

Why do they hate President Trump so much?
Easy. They are communists and he is a capitalist.
Don’t need to consider anything else.

Was because Trump was for the people and not special interests. Business in the political arena couldn’t go on as usual and he could not be pushed. He wanted to do good for the American people. He did what he said he was going to do. They did everything they could to make sure it was one term. If he loses and runs again in 2024 it won’t be close. They will cheat so bad this next time that they will announce they are going to cheat. If nothing is done this time there will be no stopping this. The politicians depend on our tax payer money to run the show. They want to keep us busy and working while they spend and do what they want with it. Trump wanted to have us all successful.

Facts are meaningless now. When others lament I ask them if he’s marrying their daughter or coming over for Thanksgiving.

First put,aside all of the people who would hate the Republican anyway and who are also triggered by Trumps aggressive self promoting personality.

Before he came down the escalator I considered Trump to be a NY gadfly rockstar wannabe. I felt a little sorry for his type, a business man who really wanted to be Elvis. Thru the 80s and 90s the papers were, inexplicably to me, full of his comings and goings. I didn’t get the reason for all the interest.

I happened to be passing a TV when he was coming down the escalator and I immediately saw it as a clownish diversion from politics and laughed out loud and said “Oh, this’ll be good”.

When Trump finished his speech I said “If he keeps this up he can win”.

That 180 I did is, I believe, somehow egotisticly impossible for some people and they react with ever building rage as they see their positon fail. To them Trump is a Klown and that’s it. They are offended by Trump and President in the same sentence and they CANNOT be wrong.

Very true. But, you would never get your word count up enough to write articles for American Thinker :)

"The horrible thing about the Two Minutes Hate was not that one was obliged to act a part, but that it was impossible to avoid joining in. Within thirty seconds any pretence was always unnecessary. A hideous ecstasy of fear and vindictiveness, a desire to kill, to torture, to smash faces in with a sledge hammer, seemed to flow through the whole group of people like an electric current, turning one even against one's will into a grimacing, screaming lunatic. And yet the rage that one felt was an abstract, undirected emotion which could be switched from one object to another like the flame of a blowlamp..."...........Winston Smith, 1984
