I often see Trump supporters baffled by "Trump hate".
I've never comprehended Obama hate. I mean, I have my suspicions, but I've never wrapped my mind around it. Obama was, at worst, a milquetoast president which resulted in a status quo and continuation of the George W. Bush era. Things certainly didn't seem to get worse under Obama, but they didn't really get better. However, things took a nose dive after Obama left office and Mr. 45 took the White House. Now we live in one of the bad timelines, where the United States is on the verge of becoming a banana republic and third world nation.
I am, admittedly, very pessimistic about America. We'll either recover, or we'll end up a failed state. But if things remain as things are, I don't see recovery happening. There are too many people in power who are doing their darndest to, in order to maintain power and control, steer the country to shipwreck. And seem perfectly happy to do it.
American decline didn't begin with Trump, or Obama, or even with George W. Bush. It's been this way since, at least, Reagan. Though I bet we could push it farther back to the Vietnam War era, probably back to Nixon.
