Your Opinion: Enough hate

Dear Editor:

Since Trump was elected, I have been trying to understand the real reason for the extreme hate for this man. Up until this time, I thought it maybe was his hair, his tweets, or his brash expressions in his manner of dealing with the press and his opponents, but it just doesn’t seem logical that these things would create the amount of hate required to hurt as many people as has been hurt by the hate for this man. Right now, thousands of people are being hurt by this shutdown. How many innocent people died at the hands of these illegal immigrants in the last two years and yet these heartless Democrats apparently will hold out forever just to get even for Trump’s legitimate election.

Hillary Clinton had been anointed by the Democrat party as the pre-determined winner in the 2016 election. What could be worse than a devastating defeat by an alpha male outsider? Since she was scorned by the voters whom a plurality were presumed to love her, her rejection has perpetrated a revenge driven by hate! Now we have Nancy Pelosi, who had her power as speaker taken by the voters in 2011, to carry the torch of hate and revenge for rejection supported by an increasingly leftist power hungry Democrat party which smell blood in the water.

There have been others in history who have been as hateful as Hillary, Pelosi and Schumer including entire political parties (i.e. the Nazi party and the Democrat party prior to the Civil War) however their hate had been directed toward a particular race or religion. This hate for one individual in our nation with choices determined by a legitimate electoral process has got to be considered irrational and I feel dysfunctional. I feel that their hate, if allowed to grow, has the ability to destroy our nation just like it destroyed Germany and almost our nation by the Civil War. The middle eastern countries who still choose to hate Christians rather than live in peace will continue to endure hardship until they shed their hate.

It’s time we take back our nation by rejecting the hate driven hypocrite politicians and demand they protect us citizens as our Constitution requires and they by their oath pledged to do!
