He is a racist, narcissistic, bully, with no qualifications for the office of president. He confuses the office of president with that of king. He thinks toture, killing the families of terrorists, and deployment of nucleus weapons are good ideas. He objects to wind generated power because it's aesthetically unpleasing. He is womanizer who promotes the carreers of beautiful women and thinks the less than beautiful should not hold power. I could go on. . . But what I find I objectionable, is that he doesn't even care what the facts are or what the truth is.
The only difference I see from that and the last dozen presidents or so, is that he is up front about it while the others played 'good christians' and thought it and did it any way. Trumps major fault (or maybe not) is that he is saying what all the others were thinking and doing. (If he is like all the others then he is lying through his teeth and really is a good guy?)
Up front about what? Being racist and sexist? Well yes I think he really is both those things. And maybe he's a more open version of past presidents in that way. Or about making up facts to suit any occasion? There he is simply off the charts. There's no comparison.
If there is a god, I want to believe that there is a god. If there is not a god, I want to believe that there is no god.
