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?

I think the only person who feels sorry for Donald Trump is Donald Trump.

StuartNorwich · 05/11/2020 21:35

The only hysterical people are comparing Trump to Hitler

SpongeWorthy · 05/11/2020 21:36

In all seriousness I hope you're alright @StuartNorwich because you sound ever so angry. The combination of so many tantrums and being so very clever must be exhausting.

Ooooh, that were right clever!

@chickenyhead

Dan you need to go and calm down.

Trump may have managed to con Americans, but he doesn't fool the rest of the world. We don't watch Fox news.

He is the laughing stock of world leaders, followed closely by Boris.

Putin is rubbing his little hands together in glee.

Ah ok, so Trump and Johnson ,2 world leaders are laughing stocks with the latter getting in on a landslide victory by the British voters but " British voters aren't fooled by trump " with Boris in office :/ ......and you're respectable named chickenhead on mumsnet. haha ok .. sorry couldnt resist a chuckle at that

I really cba to read the whole thread.

No. OP.

I don't feel sorry for a lying, misogynistic, xenophobic, racist, homophobic, despicable excuse of a human being who will hopefully be brought to stand trial for his many crimes against humanity and the environment, as well as be brought to account for the alleged rape of several women.

The man is a narcissist, delusional fantasist and is a very dangerous person.

chickenyhead · 05/11/2020 21:41

Oh Danny Boy.

If there is a one horse race, only one horse can win, that was Boris.

Do you live in the UK Dan?

You do like to attack women Dan.

Keep hiding behind the wronged woman tag, you have no intelligence so just use your gender as a weapon. Anyone that disagrees with you " hates women " despite me saying millions of American women would call you ridiculous.

There were 2 parties, Labour got wiped out and Boris got in so how you can say British voters are superior to Americans I've no idea. Clearly you also missed GCSE geography classes at school if you don't know where Norwich is.

tartanti · 05/11/2020 21:46

How can you feel sorry for such a rude, boorish, arrogant, aggressive and misogynistic bully who has no filter and no empathy?

Good question. I think it’s possibly the fact that he’s evidently very insecure underneath.

so there we have it , another liberal view at it's finest. Thank God people like you stay online on your pyjamas reading twitter instead of positions of any authority in the real world. Scream shout and abuse when all else fails- if you actually watched the news you would realise over 70 million Americans can see beyond your description of Trump as Hitler sending people to the gas chambers.

Er. What now? Sorry Stuart, I'm not sitting at home in my pyjamas. Nor do I use Twitter. And, would you believe it, I actually do hold a position of some authority. In the real world. I've not screamed or shouted, though I'm sure you'd like to think I did, being a hysterical woman and all. Also, I have not at any point on this thread described Trump as being like Hitler. Please don't put words in my mouth.

Finally, yes, I do hold liberal views. Proudly so. I'm not sure liberal is quite the stinging insult you seem to think it is.

Matildalamp · 05/11/2020 21:47

This is one of the funniest things I’ve ever read Grin Trump doesn’t give a toss about anyone but himself and I doubt he’s ever given his all to anything, ever. He’s a narcissistic bully!

chickenyhead · 05/11/2020 21:49

Aaaahhh Norwich..the fog clears, ok Danny boy.

I cba to explain that the labour party's choice of leader made them a non option. Because you just cannot see past the end of your nose little Dan.

StuartNorwich · 05/11/2020 21:49

While we are on the subject of generic terms thrown out to people chickenhead , the fact you continually use my gender against me and imply British voters are superior to Americans is not only sexist but racist how about that.. are you related to Donald?

mbosnz · 05/11/2020 21:50

Poor ol' Stuey. Won't these uppity women just know their place?

chickenyhead · 05/11/2020 21:51

I haven't used your sex against you, you funny thing you.

Layza101 · 05/11/2020 21:51

He's a creep, saying if his daughter wasn't his daughter, he'd probably be dating her 🤮

InsideOfEmptiness · 05/11/2020 21:53

@StuartNorwich

Incidentally misogyny is prejudice against women, as many women like the Op aren't male that rules out the misogyny nonsense again which is always peddled out mostly when it isn't there. Most women don't talk about Hitler and the gas chambers... my issue is with your views - don't hide behind your gender as a victim of misogyny, do you want to be addressed as a far left man? Millions of American women who have seen the American economy thrive before covid for themselves and their children would say you are talking utter rubbish. Why should the views of millions of native American women be ignored over a dunce on mumsnet calling people "pieces of sh1t"?
Oh Stuart, I didnt talk about Hitler and gas chambers, at all, did I? Perhaps you're confusing me with another poster? I mean, clearly the views of women are completely interchangeable to you, being the homogeneous mass of 'hysterical' womanhood you clearly perceive us to be.
StuartNorwich · 05/11/2020 21:56

@chickenyhead

I haven't used your sex against you, you funny thing you.
I'm arguing your points and you repeatedly fall back to a default position of you being attacked due to your female status.. how is that not using my gender against me? Should I not argue with you because you are a poor female? I see females as equal so why do you feel the need to keep hiding behind a male abusing a female as though you are some sort of child. Do you want me to describe you as a left wing male?

You're the sort of person chickenhead to pull into a carpark, nudge infront of a male driver to take a carparking place and if he objected scream sexist/ misogyny using the fact you're a woman to win a debate or obtain a favourable outcome. It's weakness of character

chickenyhead · 05/11/2020 21:56

Fortunately Dan I do not have that cross to bear.

StuartNorwich · 05/11/2020 21:58

Plenty of men are hysterical as well, gender is irrelevant , only you are making an issue of it insideofemptiness playing the gender card yet again. Debates are always impossible with people like you because when you run out of things to say it reverts back to poor female being abused again. It's a pity you don't do what more intelligent women do and argue their points leaving their gender out of it focusing on the topic

chickenyhead · 05/11/2020 21:59

You will need to highlight these repeated instances of misandry to me Danny. Because beyond rejection of your entitled opinions over me, you seem to have lost the plot.

switswooo · 05/11/2020 22:00

@StuartNorwich don't worry your pretty little head. Let us hysterical far left wimmen talk.

You aren't very bright , that's the issue not your gender. Enjoy the rest of your evening chickenhead , I'm sure you can find a few republicans or tories on social media to scream at if you flap your wings hard enough
Flaxmeadow · 05/11/2020 22:04

I am interested if u felt sorry for hitler too?

Can’t you see this is how things like the Holocaust start?

Why do people make ridiculous comparisons like this? They're not only inaccurate but also deeply insulting to the memory of Hitlers victims

No Trump is not Hitler and the USA is not Germany in the 1930s. Please read a history book

chickenyhead · 05/11/2020 22:05

Oh Dan you couldn't find the evidence to support your bullying of women on the Internet. Diddums ickle man 🎻

I have enjoyed our little chat. Thank you.
