I can't stand Donald Trump. I can take or leave some of his policy, but I cannot stomach the man. And I just can't ignore the chance to take aim at a walking "free-shot": the affluent target who talks effluent.

He evokes the same feeling I get when I use a public restroom and the toilet seat is already warm.  It grosses me out.  

Trump enters the White House as one of the most disliked president-elects in history.  A CNN poll this week gave him just a forty percent approval rating. Naturally, his twitter response was predictable. Like the pre-election polls, it was "rigged."  More. Fake. News.

And he commands a CNN style audience in numbers - with his Twitter followers topping 20 million. The beauty of the written word of course, (or often in his case, insult)  is that at least followers don't actually have to listen to the words as they physically drip from the bilge pump .

I don't even hear the words anymore. I feel like I’m listening to a child who has no clue of the answer, but having been put on the spot, has a crack at cobbling together some semblance of a reply and hoping one parent will buy it.

For example, Trump’s reply, when asked who he’d be speaking to on foreign policy:  “Number one, I’m speaking with myself, because I have a very good brain and I‘ve said a lot of things.”  (Genius. America really does have Talent.)

More than two hundred outbursts on Twitter use the word "loser". A further two hundred use the word "dumb or dummy. Nearly seven hundred feature adjectives like, "terrible, stupid, weak or dopey."

He lacks restraint: “If Ivanka weren’t my daughter, perhaps I’d be dating her”.  (She must be so proud.) 

Speaking of the family, a vote for one Trump and you get the entire set - Team Trump...A game the whole family can play!

He lies too:  "I didn't mock that disabled reporter". (Yes you did, Donald.)

Regardless of your politics, Donald Trump lacks the quiet dignity and grace that Obama brought to office, the poise and calm you’d hope for in a President.  

But then again, Americans wanted change. Although a glance at the Facebook page "I Regret Voting for Donald Trump" is perhaps a lesson in the old saying be careful what you wish for.

He’s no leader. He’s a campaigner. America voted for a demagogue. And once we cut through the noise, history will really start to judge him.  Donald J. Trump, US President by default. 

My hope for America, a country I adore, is that when you get to the White House, Mr Trump, you remember that the office is more important than the occupant.
