Obama was a good speaker but his actions were quite a bit different... maybe that's why. At least with Trump, you know what you're getting because he appears to be brutally honest.

Being ignorant and loud at the same time, does not make someone honest.

For a politician he was honest about what he wanted to accomplish.

Being honest about doing terrible things is not a virtue.

It's better than being dishonest about doing terrible things, though...

I'll never get used to people reading more into what I said than what I said. No, they're both horrible, but one is slightly more horrible than the other.

Only HN thinks Trump is the savior. It's frankly sickening.

That's far from accurate. I think you may be falling prey to the notice-dislike bias: https://hn.algolia.com/?dateRange=all&page=0&prefix=true&sor....

I post about that extremely often (sorry), but it's because it's so important. It's probably the single biggest factor causing problems here.
