People! You are getting bogged down by his policies and the media. Maybe I need to clarify my question:
From what you have seen in his interactions with people on TV and how he treats his staff, does Donald Trump seem like a nice guy or jerk?
I wouldn't think so but how could I know. Of course if the media reported he's a jerk I wouldn't believe them because for them the fact that he beat Hillary makes him a jerk.
If your fishing for a new angle to attack Trump I doubt it will work because we know the media suffers from TDS and has been so vicious with malicious intent so how can we believe anything they say? Unfortunately this is not good because they could report on something that is truthful but knowing how relentless and vicious the media has been why would anyone believe them. Instead of the media doing it's job they've become political activist and made it this way, the boy that cried wolf comes to mind.
I appreciate your honestly. I'm being candid. To admit that you voted for a man who is a jerk and a narcissist, that takes guts to say on here.
As far as him being the best thing that happened to America in a very long time, that remains to be seen. We'll have to see what type of legacy Trump leaves behind when he exits the White House, whether that's in a few months or in six years.
So far, 16 months in, Trump's presidency has mostly been a nightmare.
I meant it in a way that him becoming President has exposed a lot about America (good and bad) that we neglected to address in the past.
How about that, another hate Trump fest. Haters got to hate.
Who cares if he is a jerk. As long as he does his job great. Maybe a jerk is what is needed right now. The left would rather have a incompetent guy who is nice as leader of the free world.

No, it is simply another discussion about another aspect of Trump, "Is he a jerk or not". Of course, I am going to vote yes, but I didn't, because this poll was for Trump supporters to vote in. However, I will say that I know a lot of Trumpees KNOW he is a jerk, but that is what they like about him. They hate the establishment and traditional politics, and the more he is a jerk to them, the better they like it.
Trump is their weapon to stick it to the man. They don't care if he is inept or dishonest, they just want him to be a rude idiot, and that he fulfills in spades.

He can be a jerk without being inept. The two dont go hand in hand.
I think one of the reasons many people hate Donald Trump so much is he just comes across as the biggest jerk in the world.
Trump is born, raised and is a successful RE developer in NYC. Is there really any need to ask why anyone thinks he is a jerk?
My two cents:
Everyone has different reasons for liking and/or disliking him. I like what he is trying to accomplish, hate that he keeps getting in his own way and giving ammunition to MSM and the tribe.
How I see his detractors:
In the case of the left it's simply that they lost and he clearly won. How could a billionaire reality star beat their Queen? This thread is a glaring example of how they refuse to accept this fact 16 months later and show no sign of stopping, ever.
R Presidents:
Reagan was hated for trickle down, GWB was really hated for starting wars, now Trump is extremely hated for everything, even as he has done some great world changing things. That he would still be hated by the progs even if he solved the Korean problem is beyond me.
There's a pattern with the Marxist left.
They would rather see a Republican fail and will do their best to manufacture such failure than see him and the country succeed.
PS, I don't want a "nice" President. Eight years of "nice" got us nowhere!
