When I was much younger, my mom vowed that if ______ was elected, we were moving to Canada. He was. We didn't. We survived.
I'm not defending anyone or saying you don't have stuff to get riled up about, but it's not healthy to internalize all that shit.
I'll extend that to say I don't understand hatred for people you've never met. That's an awful lot of negative energy expended for someone who will never even know it.
I'll also add that disapproval and disagreement do not equate to hatred.
And just because you hated the last guy does not mean that my disapproval of the current guy is rooted in hatred.
Because I said so.
