I instantly turn off anything with his voice or face.

I know who he is, have known for 20 years.

New Yorkers know who he is. He is a criminal, liar and putrid excuse for a human being.

This is a known fact by millions for decades.

If he is successful, in the long run, with this as in staying in power or out of jail, then there is no reason for any of us to care anymore. We then have to look to start a new country.

Problem with that is this is exactly what Putin is hoping we will do, he hopes the true patriots will get so fed up, so angry, that they will do something overt, then he rolls in and takes over.

Nobody said a word about what a putrid excuse human being he was, or even that he was a liar or a cheat.
Most of the media reporters praised him, or the worst they said was that "he's no better/worse than Hillary."

How much did those New York reporters and columnists know about this disgusting man last year?
You're saying that New Yorkers already knew about Trump, so how come didn't they say something before he got elected?

All we heard about was "Donald Trump is good for business." And the news outlets all (or most of them) made a fortune last year selling their advertising and a lot of it was fake news, but nobody cared.

It's the reporters and the US news media who FAILED in their jobs last year.
They're the ones who should be fired. Fox News should be put out of business.

If it's important, and even if it's not, it's written down somewhere.

His pathetic way of speaking, with limited vocabulary and repeated statements of what he LOVES and what is TREMENDOUS, makes me feel literally nauseated.

I just finished a quick lunch and checked DU for any news of the "foreign source leaks" before taking the dogs to the park.

I refuse to watch the king of gauche.

The voice, the smugness, the stupid expressions, his mangling of the English language, the pomposity. He's one big UGH.

And that's not a commentary on his politics: I've always hated to hear him speak because his voice, diction and word choice are so off-putting.

He has zero charisma. If he hadn't inherited a fortune and stolen an additional fortune, he'd be ranting under an off-ramp somewhere.
