I agree with the above, but I see things going beyond that. I consider Trump to be the greatest existential threat to life on this planet since the Cretaceous–Paleogene extinction event.
Poll takeaways: more than half polled, at least 53.36% was beyond outraged. That’s a large chunk of the 84.46% who was just outraged in general (6 to 8). 5.30% was generally fed up, and that was less than the 5.66% that was just generally annoyed with Trump. 4.59% was neutral who didn’t view Trump negativly, but didn’t view him positivly either.
Now the question after the poll, it’s only been January, will the numbers change in time for the better or worse?
This is the Dope. Trump could implement UHC, end poverty, and engineer world peace and Dopers would still be beyond outraged, simply because he ran on a Republican ticket.
Hardly. Liberals understand nuance. Unless you mean peace by killing all of ones enemies, ending poverty by killing all the poor, etc.

This is the problem with American politics, you think everything is “them or us”. You seemingly can’t conceive that people can judge things on the evidence in front of them, and so an Irish conservative thinking that the election of Trump demeans your entire country somehow becomes something to do with him running on a Republican ticket.
Trump isn’t the problem, you lot are.
Nonsense. A Republican will get my vote as soon as they can simply offer someone who is fiscally responsible, socially progressive, and not a conservative christian armageddonist.
I would back any politician who hit these two notes. Dems often get the socially progressive. Neither gets fiscally responsible, simply because the system rewards spending more and more money and congress critters get graded on how much money they bring back home. That said, for the last 12-16 years or so, Dems have been moderately less fiscally irresponsible overall.
