I’m not going to parse whether my feelings for him are hate are some other word. But what I do not like about him is that he is the personification of every worst stereotype of Americans.

Greedy, egotistical, sexist, racist, vulgar, ignorant, xenophobic, anti-science, and so on.

Plus his negative qualities do not appear to be redeemed by any positive qualities, other than he sometimes shows flashes of a sense of humor… which is again offset by his vulgarity and sometimes a complete non-understanding of what humor is. [Apparently he edited out punchlines from his script for the Comedy Central Roast.](http://www.vanityfair.com/hollywood/2016/10/donald-trump-comedy-central-roast)

I don’t hate Trump, rather I **despise** the little prick.

I always thought he was a jerk, long before he ran for President.

It turns out he’s even a little MORE of a jerk than I suspected. No big surprise.
