To feel sorry for Trump?

I’ve name changed for this as I know I will get completely flamed. But AIBU to secretly feel a little bit sorry for Trump? He campaigned so hard for this election compared to Biden and seemed to put his absolute all into it.

The amount of hate he gets on social media is astounding - I honestly don’t know how one person can handle all that and keep on going. I would have had a nervous breakdown or worse by now if I was on the receiving end of that.

His kids clearly love him and they seem alright - perhaps he’s not so bad behind the scenes? I think losing this election will destroy him as a person and whilst I don’t agree with his political viewpoint, I can’t help but feel slightly sorry for the guy.

AIBU?

Dear god what is wrong with you?

FilthyforFirth · 04/11/2020 21:30

Also he 'put his all into it' because he is facing several lawsuits the minute he is no longer protected by his office. But sure, go ahead and believe it was because he just cares so darn much...

I think it would be fascinating to watch him go completely to pieces. This is his greatest fear - failure - and the whole world is watching.

I don't feel sorry for him though, he's a parasite.

I feel sympathy for many people in life. Even many wrong’uns. But not for Trump. He hasn’t slipped up, been weak, made mistakes. He’s deliberately done and said terrible things. Again and again. So no I don’t feel sorry for him.

HoneysuckIejasmine · 04/11/2020 21:31

I feel sorry for the 500 children, removed from their parents at the border under trump's orders, who have been lost by his incompetent administration. They'll never see their family again. If they are incredibly lucky, they are in a safe place. But that's not likely.

S0CKS · 04/11/2020 21:32

Sorry, no. Did you see his conference this morning about 730am our time? HOW can you feel sorry for that?

Cosmos123 · 04/11/2020 21:32

Is that you Ivanka????

JesusInTheCabbageVan · 04/11/2020 21:32

His kids clearly love him Abusers' children often do love them deeply. Enough threads on here show that.

and they seem alright Um. No.

DramaAlpaca · 04/11/2020 21:33

No, OP. I don't feel in the least bit sorry for that horrible man and his equally awful family.

MrsSiriusBlack1 · 04/11/2020 21:33

Halloween Grin he’s a nobber. Why do u like nobbers?

TammyTwoSawnson · 04/11/2020 21:33

He's ripped babies from their mothers and put them in cages.

I hope he rots in prison.

Pumperthepumper · 04/11/2020 21:33

I can’t wait until he’s an embarrassing memory in America’s history, and nothing more.

OptimisticSix · 04/11/2020 21:34

What @HoneysuckIejasmine said.

Give your head a wobble. He is a disgusting human being.

Jellycatspyjamas · 04/11/2020 21:34

I feel rather more sorry for the 456 children he separated from their parents

Abendintheriver · 04/11/2020 21:35

I often feel sorry for people I don't like/agree with when things don't go their way. I don't understand it but I really do. But Trump?! Not even a little bit. In fact I would happily watch him sobbing in the streets. He is a disgusting human being and deserves everything coming to him.

Morgan12 · 04/11/2020 21:35

He deserves much much much much much much much worse.

The man is downright dangerous and should not be holding a position with such power.

Nonamesavail · 04/11/2020 21:35

Not even an ounce of sympathy for him.

Mandalalorianna · 04/11/2020 21:36

Christ on a bike, are you on glue?

BrigitsBigKnickers · 04/11/2020 21:36

Do I feel sorry for a misogynistic, racist, egotistical dictator?

Erm..... Confused

mayflowerapplepie · 04/11/2020 21:37

He is an awful human being. Yelling at a few rallies doesn’t make up for killing 100000 extra people. Talk is easy. Action is cheap
