Have you ever actually hated a sitting US President before?
Nixon was my C-in-C, and while I thought the sonofabitch was exactly that, I didn't actually hate him.
Reagan was, at least in my opinion, an amiable dunce, who was almost completely senescent by the end of his second term. (He'll rot in Hell for ignoring the AIDS crisis, but I was unaware of it at the time.)
George HW Bush was a patrician douche, who committed crimes in service to who knows what. Probably some misguided energetic Commie-hunting bullshit instinct left over from the 60's.
W was a dope who was engaged in a dick-measuring contest with his daddy, and God knows how many innocent civilians and US service men and women paid the price.
But I never actually hated ANY sitting President.
Until now.
I want horrible things to happen to the orange shitgibbon who has usurped the people's house, and is now actively engaged in destroying everything that this country used to stand for.
If his diet should catch up with him, and he tumbles in a heap down the steps of Air Force One ... well ... shit happens. And just in case, have another double cheeseburger, Lard-Ass.
But failing that, I want him shamed, driven from office in disgrace, and never able to show his face in public again without being vociferously scorned.
For the first time in my life, I hate ... not dislike ... not have policy disagreements with ... but ****ing DESPISE the President of the United States.

1. I came close with Bush*, (even closer with VP Cheney), but no, I don't think I've hated a President
I'm afraid to even admit to myself how I truly feel about Trump.

3. Yeah. I hated GWB.
I haven't forgotten what a dolt he was, how ham-fisted and tongue-tied; how provincial and blockheaded. How eager he was to allow truly evil people like Dick Cheney to have free rein over this country. How he willingly allowed 9/11/2001 to be used as a political excuse for visiting all sorts of horrors upon innocent people.
I'll never forgive him for that.
I hated his guts. I still do. I don't care how chummy he and Michelle Obama get; it just proves what a class act she is.
My loathing for Trump does not diminish my hatred for the previous to the manner-born, silver spoon asshole Republican...

6. Yes, Reagan and Bush*
In some ways, my reaction to Reagan was similar to my reaction to Trump. Reagan creeped me out. His smarmy voice actually made the hair on my arms stand up. I had to leave the room if his voice was on, and his heavily made-up face didn't help when it came to looking at him.
With Bush*, I more hated him for what he did, though he has the kind of personality I try to avoid IRL, too folksy and insincere.
True, Trump kind of takes it to a new level, but the answer is yes, I've hated other presidents. OTOH, I didn't feel that their voters necessarily hated me the way I felt in November 2016 that Trump voters did. I was shocked. My first reaction was, how could anyone hate me (and people who believe what I do) so much that they'd rather vote for this guy than have this country succeed?

9. Yes, all of them.
I HATED Reagun, Bush, Bush 2, and now this ****er. I felt sorry for Nixon when he cried when he resigned, I was only 12. My parents told me I's feel sorry for Hitler. My whole family (4 generations) are Dems and we HATE the GOP.

17. I couldn't abide either Nixon or Reagan, and I disdained Bush II as a sorry dimwit,
but I have to say Trump tops them all by orders of magnitude. I hate him with the fire of a thousand suns and hope I live long enough to do the samba on his grave, even though I consider grave-dancing to be extremely tacky in most cases (I'll also do a little two-step on Cheney if that's possible). Maybe that intensity of loathing is bad for one's karma, not to mention blood pressure, and I realize that we should have compassion for all sentient beings, but he's a real doozy when it comes to the possibility of finding any redeeming value in either his blighted soul or his blubbery orange carcass, other than fertilizer.

18. Yeah, Murder Monkey (Shrub) and Darth Cheney
I couldn't believe he was elected when it happened. But of course the Pukes cheated. Then Darth Cheney and the Bolton **** encouraged him to kill thousands of innocent people in a phony war after 9/11, an event that was perpetrated by the Saudis that the Bush Crime Family was in bed with.
But this is even worse. The bloated orange **** is being given carte blanche to do whatever he wants to American citizens. He owes the Russians big time and is drunk with power and hate. God knows what his cowering party of shitbags will let him do. Pootie ****ing approves.

and I hope that he pays dearly. He is a vile evil man, plus he is unfit and mentally unwell.

29. With the exception of Gerald Ford,
I have hated every republican president since Nixon. They have waged war against working people and committed acts of great evil against the people of other nations.

31. I loathed Nixon, Reagan, and GWB with every fiber of my being.
I mean I HATED them. I still do. Trump doesn't make them seem any less loathsome. I considered and still consider them all venal, vile, hypocritical, criminal monsters.
But I don't even know how to characterize how much I loathe Trump.

36. Yes. Reagan and both Bushes.
I was only a tween when Nixon was President. I knew he was an awful person, but I was still too young to understand exactly why at that point. I probably would have hated him, as well, if I were old enough to know better. I hate GWB, because his administration is directly responsible for destroying my career, and pretty much ruining my life. I hope that ****er, and everyone associated with him rots in Hell. Which is where his shitbag parents undoubtedly reside, currently, along with Brain-dead Ronnie. **** them all. Trump makes the lot of them look less contemptible, but they are all still vile excuses for human beings.

44. Yes. I hated Bush.
But I never wished him dead like I do the pile of shit in the office right now. Every morning I ask my husband, "Did the ****er die last night?"

54. I do hate Trump and since the election my anxiety and stress levels have gone way up.
Imagine thinking of one of the vilest people on earth every day. That has to do something to your health.

57. I despised Reagan, and Bush largely because of Cheney
Reagan was the most dangerous type of Republican because he could pretend he actually cared about everyday Americans, and they were stupid enough to believe it. At that point I thought we might have a string of Republicans out of the same mold, and gobbling up 55% of the presidential vote.
Trump actually had the same potential but he was too stupid and evil to realize it, or care. He's got the same type of celebrity teflon as Reagan.
My hatred of Bush obviously increased based on how he got into office, and then everything to do with Iraq and every word/facial expression from Dick Cheney.
Prior to Trump I hated Cheney more than any politician of my lifetime.

Obama and BJ clinton. Both however were worthy of it.
Ralph Wiggum:
And we thought the unhinged DUmmy hatred for Bush #43 was bad. Just wait until 2024, 2028 or 2032 and this particular hate for the next Republican President will exponentially explode.

Well, half a kudo to BigPig and several others for their honesty: We hatesss Republicansesss, Precious, we HATES them! Achhh! Sssss! Ssssssss! :tongue: :lmao:

Record numbers of whites and non-whites employed, record numbers off of food stamps, stock market on the rise, businesses expanding and Co2 levels going down. This is what success is, what we voted for.
Your idea of success is more people dependent on government handouts.

Provincial? A former president, governor and the son of another president. The pleb DUmmie watches MSNBC and as much of the online articles at the Washington Post they can before hitting the paywall and somehow believes it is a member of the patrician class.
