I still don't get how you think I'm exaggerating. Again, I didn't say: "Trump is literally Hitler and will instate himself as dictator!" Instead I listed off actual things that he and his administration have done, or have promised to do. Maybe by denying that what I've said is close to reality is your way of coping, and if so, more power to you. A lot of people didn't expect him to actually be serious about things like repealing the ACA, including many Trump supporters who rely on it. I also think you're reading more into my comment then what I actually said. My concern wasn't just with the scapegoating of minorities, but things that will affect every American, especially the poor (even white) with things like the crippling of the EPA and repeal of the Affordable Care Act.

> Trump is a 70+ year old guy who grew up around construction crews (hence the lack of smooth lawyer/politician speeches) who has achieved far more real success than the vast majority of people on the planet. Can we agree one does not get there by being a moron? Or that one does not get there without making more good than bad decisions? Or that one does not get there without surrounding oneself with extremely intelligent talented people? Or that one does not get there without listening to valuable advice?

Sigh, I'm also tired of this shtick that because he ran a business he's suddenly competent enough to run a country. His father was rich, he isn't some self-made man. Trump has left tons of failed businesses and bankruptcies in his wake. The USA is a government, not a business, and your whole point about listening to others is negated by the fact that he won't even receive security briefs. The guy can barely read or string together a sentence yet somehow people think he's some kind of genius businessman.

Again you think I"m saying he's going to destroy the US. No I do not think that. I already clearly said what I think he's going to do. And his plan does not have my best interests at heart.

Lastly I strongly disagree with this notion that we need to shake things up so bad, we had to hire the most incompetent buffoon there is. He's already proven he can't keep to his promises like making Mexico pay for the wall, jailing Hilary, draining the swamp, etc... For some reason every one of his defenders thinks he's more competent than he is, and that every misstep by him is some ingenious 5D chess. Sorry but I gave him my good faith on the day he was elected and it was succinctly taken away.

As for focusing on the positives, none of those positives are for me. I'm not a coal worker who cares more about my obsolete job than the environment. I can't just sit by and ignore the negatives just so other people can justify their choices. I'm going to be loud and speak truth to power. Why don't you go to your local LGBT center and tell them to focus on the positives? Why don't you talk to immigrants from the travel ban countries and tell them to focus on the positives while they can't even visit their country out of fear of not being allowed back? I think your perspective doesn't give enough empathy towards those who aren't all with the idea of a Trump presidency; unity requires understanding the other side as well.
