“I get an actual physical reaction to his voice and image.”
That is exactly how I feel. My wife and I both have that reaction, and have since he first came on the national scene. We realized back in 2007/8 that it is a spiritual thing . . . .
I come from a Chicago family. I was born and raised there, although it has been many decades since I lived there. We, as a family, have been like hen’s teeth - Conservative Republicans (but I do not equate the two) in the Chicago sea of Democrat filth. My brother, who still lives there warned me about Obama in 2006. All Chicago Democrats are as bad as the plague, but my brother knew that this particular Chicago Democrat was going to cause more woe than most.
I am repulsed by politics and views, but at a deeper level, repulsed by his image and his voice.
I hear you.
I am from Boston, and to this day I have to deal with family worship of Dead Ted.
