President Donald Trump is a national embarrassment and an American disgrace. Fueled by his massive ego, he’s driving roughshod over the American government, the American taxpayers, and the world at large.

    It’s so odd to me. Him as a person is easily the biggest reason I dislike him (and it’s a long list). But I’ve spoken to multiple people about that very thing and have gotten some truly odd responses. I’ve been told that they wouldn’t want their children to grow up and be like him. That they wouldn’t want to work for him as a boss. That they wouldn’t trust the things that he says. And that they wouldn’t want their family or friends to behave the same way as far as the trash talking and being… very liberal with the truth.

    But somehow, he’s still the best president we’ve ever had and an amazing, strong, intelligent person. They trust his decisions and think he’s the perfect man for the job of fostering foreign relations. I simply cannot make heads or tails of this. It’s like people somehow have lower standards for the president of the United States as a friend, family member, or coworker.

      His base think of him as a weapon, not a leader. They’re using him to lash out – even if they’re not entirely clear who or why.
