    Does he even hate? I feel like he doesn’t think about other people long enough to actually hate anyone. He just says what he thinks will get his supporters all lathered up, and if that means being a bigot, then by golly he’s going to be a bigot.

      Fair point…I guess in reality he is using hate in various flavors to rile up folks who are hateful, but as for Trump he is just using hate like he uses everything else.

        Not that that’s better in any way. Functionally, hate is hate. Whether he believes it in his heart, or merely regurgitates it because he likes bigots, it doesn’t make him a better person either way.
