No arm wrestle here but I don't understand how one can despise, or can't stand a person one has never met. It seems to me that as the years go by human beings are becoming more toxic, unkind and disrespectful. No where is this more evident that the climate in politics and those who engage in it. I agree with Bob Schieffes comments about the subject.
"This is just another sign of the incivility and really the vulgarity of modern American campaigns. These campaigns have gotten so ugly and so nasty, that they're now tarnishing the whole system.
I think it also underlines the coarseness of our culture in this age of social media when it is so easy to say anything about anybody and get no penalty for saying it.
The thing that has always made our system so strong is that whatever we have thought of the office holders, we have held the offices themselves in high respect. We have respected the office.
I've watched a lot of presidents over the years but I can never recall a president stepping off Air Force One, which is itself a symbol of the presidency and American democracy, and being subject to such rudeness."
