In reply to the discussion: Have you ever met a human being as repulsive as Trump? [View all]No Vested Interest
(5,157 posts)I try to have as little exposure to his words and actions as possible.
The night it was obvious that he would be the next president I resolved to not let him ruin my pleasure and joy in life.
He is the complete opposite of my kind, polite spouse, who never bragged about his accomplishments nor felt the need to build himself up, nor resorted name-calling.
I get news of his actions and words by reading and hearing them second-hand, for the most part. Thus I can be informed of current affairs without having to be disgusted or repulsed by viewing this person who projects himself upon the universe hour by hour.
Great harm is being done every day by this person, and I fear that much of it is not reversible.
The optimist in me hopes that his tenure will be short- one way or another- and that we can once again live in normality.
