Originally Answered: Is Donald Trump the most hated US President? Were there any other US Presidents that were hated more?
There have been presidents who were hated for their policies. One was hated for speaking out against dividing the country. Some were disliked for stooping to immoral behavior in office. Some were disliked for playing favorites instead of leading the country as a whole.
Until #45, we have not had a president who had spread hatred.
Forty five throws personal insults at people who disagree with him. I believe that is because he does not have the intelligence to counter their arguments.
He belittles the media because the media documents, in real time, #45′s behavior and speech in the context on actual environment allowing the truth to be revealed. Forty five is not a fan of reality or truth as the rest of us define it.
Forty five denigrates people and countries in a useless attempt to assert dominance. His actions only reveal that his true nature is controlled by fear. He is the runt of the litter uselessly puffing himself up as alpha; unfortunately, many voters ignored his history and chose to believe his words. The true giant is gentle, revealing his strength in courtesy, tact, and patience; his power is in reserve if needed, but his heroism is his ability to be diplomatic in laying out a reasonable course and allowing his opponents to recognize the logic and persuade themselves into alignment with what best serves the whole.
The true extent to which #45 is hated is the fact that no family member, friend, or advisor loves him enough or is trusted enough by him, to help him see how to be a better person or a better president.
