Do the majority like or dislike trump?

Im australian btw and i think trumps a good bloke and i understand why more people voted for him then crooked hillary. But the media makes it look like everybody hates him. Pretty much every article about him is negative. Celebrity's hate him but they're probably made too because they have a big effect on fragile minds. I know the media brainwashes but they're not very good at hiding it.

    Hillary Clinton received close to 3 million more votes from the American people than Trump, it was the electoral college of 538 members who determined who was elected President.

    Look up the results of a reputable polling organization like Gallup. Based on that, a majority do not support him.

    Trump has an extremely unlikable personality. Some may say they like what he is doing, others don't. But the vast majority, including his own family, don't like him as a person.

    Polling indicates that. But often people like to extrapolate their personal experiences onto the entire country.

    The simple truth of the matter is a large number of trumps supporters live in communities where they are the majority and underestimate how many people there are in other places. There are more people who hate trump but the demographic buildup is different, more ethnic minorities , white people with higher incomes , and in states won by Trump there is often a big difference between urban areas and the rest of the state.

    In otherwise thinly populated republican states these urban areas are also often redistricted together with immense areas, meaning that Austin Texas is drowned out in general election result. These areas are very large portions of the population in many states , but they don't have the same amount of influence a city of that size has in a state where there is more economic development and where small towns can keep their talent after they have gone to college.

    Trump critics are more often outside of what many trump supporters consider the 'real' America. They actually are the majority, just not in the circle of influence of many Trump supporters.

    Conservative media has a tendency to portray what is essentially a brain drain that puts an immense strain on the community as a culture war.

    Donald Trump is a genius. The problem is people are stupid and they stereotype him and say he looks like an idiot so he must be an idot.

    More people voted for Hillary, most people don't like Trump, and think he is doing a bad job.

    There are many crazy celebrities including Trump, forcing them to do anything would be like herding cats.

    If you check your facts you will find that a little uner 3 million more people voted for Clinton than for Trump. Trump won because of the first past the post collegiate system.

    I suspect many voted Trump because he was the least worse candidate. In other words they voted against Clinton rather than for Trump

    Trump is an imbecile and is an embarrassment to our country. The whole world is laughing at him. This is clear to everyone except his gullible supporters.
