For one thing, he has no political experience- he became president aged 70, and prior to that was a billionaire businessman with a long history of corruption. Another thing is that he is perceived as a sexist president, once telling a female journalist that she "would be a pretty sight... on (her) knees" He is also ignorant of facts and prone to falsification, especially in regards to the Dakota Access Pipeline and the Paris Agreement. Furthermore, there is his tendency to describe all news articles or outlets that disagree with him as "fake news", which is definitely true with CNN. He is also regarded as a psychopath. Two other reasons- his narcissism and possible psychopathy- can be seen when, after an interview in regards to a white supremacist protest in Charlottesville where a woman was murdered, he was caught by cameras saying "I own a house in Charlottesville. ... Does anyone know I own a house in Charlottesville?" (Most of the white supremacists, by the way, voted for him.) He is also corrupt- he sacked the director of he Federal Bureau of Investigations when they were investigating him. Despite all of this, he is leader, and we should respect our government (Romans 13:1-7) regardless of whether or not we like them. God bless you.

WHY ( provide reasons ) do many Americans seem to "HATE" ( their ) President Trump ?
the word Hate from proto Germanic "HATIS" from old English "HATIAN" implied expression " to regard with extreme ill will "... " to have a passionate AVERSION to ",..." .viewed as a TREAT " from Gothic "Hatan" from PIE root "KAD " to bring "SORROW" grief and Calamity Greek "KEDOS" "Trouble " sorrow ...
. ,,, basically not in the best interest of ALL human well being ..
. the REASONS what he projects is first the use of glittery generalizations and exaggeration of painting a image of America in disrepair decline there is noting Positive a common tool of the propagandist as well as the Narcissist
called GAS LIGHTING also seen in Stockholm syndrome express all that is negative , never addressing anything positive a mentality of Victim to promote the narcissus as the SAVIOR
. so to promote a image of greatest CONTRAST DEVALUE EVERYTHING , even that which is positive a Mind GAME then assert ONLY HE CAN SAVE you that his AGENDA HIS POWERS are GREAT
forms a BAND WAGON one tool of the propagandist the others are NAME CALLING and devaluing OTHERS hence asserting the people on the band wagon are Special superior the "CHOSEN" who will receive great reward ( TRIBALISM ) some Religions also use the tactic ( many in the Christian right voted for Trump a form of indoctrination )
other tools Card Stacking Testimonial Plain Folk transfer and diverting and his favorite GLITTERY GENERALIZATIONS ( rarely presents specific )
the use of ALL or NONE aka THEM vs US or BLACK & WHITE thinking , in psychology termed DISTORTED THINKING or EXTREMES .. never any middle
Tribalism a LOYALTY ( loyalty is defined as support alliance without question ) ( if he says it it must be Right and a TRUTH ) demonstrated by the quote
" I could stand on 5th avenue shoot someone ( break the law ) and i would not lose a single supporter " basically the band wagon has given him permission and will not question anything he does , basically saying his supporters have no morals ) .... Meaning those who are ADVERSE to Trump
DO QUESTION , Evaluate and can see how History is repeating itself .. Trump is . going BACKWARD and the carrot is if i promise you wealth & Power superiority over others his policy is actually give MORE WEALTH to the WEALTHY ( TRICKLE DOWN ECONOMICS ) that some how their increased wealth they will pass it Down to You ( out of the goodness of their hearts ) that did not happen in slavery ,
why the Confederacy objected to the end of slavery the PROFITEER like their PROFITS .. there is no Mechanism he has instituted to force the profiteers to share or improve the status of the workers
his desire is people will set aside your morality and empathy value for equality not all will most wont

A lot of that hate is down to him winning the election. That is normal for all winners. The president also declared war on the media. A large proportion of the hate was generated by them through heavily biased reporting. His policies did the rest of the damage.

The media, and Leftist Propaganda.............mostly. At least the "haters".
There are others who have issues with him or disappointments, etc. Not in the same category, not for the same reasons.

One reason maybe because Clinton got More of the Votes from the People. Each state sends in it's Elec. votes for who ever got the most votes in each state. A much smaller amount. Trump got more of these votes. This has never happened before. So most of the people Did NOT vote for Pres. Trump.

They don't, the media hate him because their plans included a female president. Don't listen to the propaganda.
