While it\u2019s understandable for progressives to disagree, oppose, and even dislike Republican presidents, when coherent debate is sacrificed for all-encompassing hatred, it\u2019s fair to question its toxic source.<\/p>\n<p style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Yet such intense loathing becomes even more confounding when reviewing Trump\u2019s accomplishments since his reelection.<\/p>\n<p style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Elected largely chosen to secure the border and to deport \u201cworst of the worst\u201d illegal immigrants, that goal is being achieved. The economy, in shambles during the Biden administration, has greatly improved. And America has again achieved net energy independence.<\/p>\n<p style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Moreover, through the DOGE initiative, wasteful government spending has decreased. Crime has significantly declined in cities where Trump has sent the National Guard. And taxes on overtime, tips, and Social Security have greatly decreased.<\/p>\n<p style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Tariffs have largely been equalized among trading partners, and NATO nations have agreed to pay their fair  of defense costs. And many drug prices have fallen to most-favored-nation levels since Trump jawboned drug manufacturers.<\/p>\n<p> <script type=\"text\/javascript\"> \t\t\tif ( getCookie( \"ff_subbed\" ) ) { \t\t\t\tdocument.getElementById(\"anyclipvideo\").remove() \t\t\t} else { \t\t\t\tdocument.addEventListener(\"DOMContentLoaded\", function() { \t\t\t\t\tfunction loadAnyclip() { \t\t\t\t\t\tconst container = document.getElementById(\"anyclipvideo\"); \t\t\t\t\t\tif (!container) return;  \t\t\t\t\t\tconst script = document.createElement(\"script\"); \t\t\t\t\t\tscript.src = \"https:\/\/player.anyclip.com\/anyclip-widget\/lre-widget\/prod\/v1\/src\/lre.js\"; \t\t\t\t\t\tscript.setAttribute(\"pubname\", \"westernjournalcom\"); \t\t\t\t\t\tscript.setAttribute(\"widgetname\", \"001w000001jULVcAAO_M12924\");  \t\t\t\t\t\t\/\/ append inside the container so player shows in correct spot \t\t\t\t\t\tcontainer.appendChild(script); \t\t\t\t\t} \t\t\t\t\tfunction findPreviousParagraph(selector, x) { \t\t\t\t\t\tconst targetElement = document.querySelector(selector); \t\t\t\t\t\tif (!targetElement) { \t\t\t\t\t\t\tconsole.warn(\"Target element not found.\"); \t\t\t\t\t\t\treturn null; \t\t\t\t\t\t}  \t\t\t\t\t\t\/\/ Get all <\/p>\n<p> elements in order as they appear in the document \t\t\t\t\t\tlet paragraphs = Array.from(document.querySelectorAll(\"p\"));  \t\t\t\t\t\t\/\/ Find the index of the last <\/p>\n<p> before the target element \t\t\t\t\t\tlet targetIndex = paragraphs.findIndex(p => p.compareDocumentPosition(targetElement) & Node.DOCUMENT_POSITION_PRECEDING);  \t\t\t\t\t\tif (targetIndex === -1 || targetIndex < x) { \t\t\t\t\t\t\tconsole.warn(\"Not enough paragraphs before the target element.\"); \t\t\t\t\t\t\treturn null; \t\t\t\t\t\t}  \t\t\t\t\t\treturn paragraphs[targetIndex - x]; \t\t\t\t\t}  \t\t\t\t\t\/\/ Set up IntersectionObserver \t\t\t\t\tfunction observeElement(element) { \t\t\t\t\t\tif (!element) return;  \t\t\t\t\t\tconst observer = new IntersectionObserver( \t\t\t\t\t\t\t(entries) => { \t\t\t\t\t\t\t\tentries.forEach(entry => { \t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\tif (entry.isIntersecting) { \t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\tconsole.log(\"Paragraph is now visible:\", entry.target.textContent.trim()); \t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\tloadAnyclip(); \t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\tobserver.disconnect(); \t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t} \t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t}); \t\t\t\t\t\t\t}, \t\t\t\t\t\t\t{ threshold: 0.5 } \/\/ Adjust threshold as needed \t\t\t\t\t\t);  \t\t\t\t\t\tobserver.observe(element); \t\t\t\t\t}  \t\t\t\t\t\/\/ Find the 1st paragraph before #anyclipvideo and observe it \t\t\t\t\tlet paragraphToObserve = findPreviousParagraph(\"#anyclipvideo\", 2); \t\t\t\t\tobserveElement(paragraphToObserve); \t\t\t\t}); \t\t\t} \t\t<\/script> <\/p>\n<p style=\"font-weight: 400;\">On the world stage, Trump has brokered admittedly fragile ceasefires in several long-standing conflicts between Israel and Hamas, Armenia and Azerbaijan, Cambodia and Thailand, and Rwanda and the Democratic Republic of the Congo.<\/p>\n<p style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The President ended illicit drug exports from Venezuela and removed its narco-terrorist leader from power. And most importantly, Trump launched Operation Epic Fury, crippling Iran as the world\u2019s leading state-sponsored exporter of terrorism.<\/p>\n<p style=\"font-weight: 400;\">So, ignoring or greatly devaluing those accomplishments, a commonly verbalized reason for Trump Derangement Syndrome is that Democrats don\u2019t like his demeanor.<\/p>\n<p style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Clearly, the president does not suffer fools gladly, and his sometimes abrasive approach toward those he considers incompetent or uninformed is often seen as \u201cunpresidential.\u201d And since his background is that of an \u201cin-your-face\u201d businessman rather than as a seasoned politician, such uncompromising statements, when out of context, are weaponized by opponents.<\/p>\n<p style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Yet, what matters most is policy and results, not personality. This is especially true since politicians often rely on advisors to craft their statements, agendas, and public personas. And as the personalities of micromanaged politicians are thus largely a charade, one\u2019s often inflexible opinion on their character is based on counterfeit evidence.<\/p>\n<p style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Another reason why progressives are blinded by Trump hatred is confirmation bias. That is, because people are hardwired to avoid uncertainty and protect their self-esteem, they seek information supporting what they already believe.<\/p>\n<p style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Thus, by ignoring, dismissing, or downplaying information contradicting personal beliefs, one\u2019s worldview remains intact, and the discomfort of being mistaken is avoided.<\/p>\n<p style=\"font-weight: 400;\">But such intellectual stagnation has a cost. And that is, mindless resistance to contradictory evidence traps us in a group-loyalty echo chamber, impeding growth and fueling the omnipresent political tribalism currently displayed.<\/p>\n<p style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Now, of course, confirmation bias is not solely a shortcoming of progressives. However, since the \u201cBig Three\u201d of mainstream media \u2014 ABC, CBS, and NBC \u2014 lean left, and even more so MSNBC and CNN, political narrow-mindedness has ample opportunities to flourish.<\/p>\n<p style=\"font-weight: 400;\">And although right-leaning Fox News and, to a lesser extent, Newsmax also have dedicated followers, it is nearly impossible to counter the left-leaning confirmation bias driven by the numerical advantage of legacy media sources.<\/p>\n<p style=\"font-weight: 400;\">That said, the mainstream media fabricates Trump-hating \u201cfacts,\u201d leaving little room for nuanced perspectives or honest disagreement. This collective voice of hostility divides families, destroys friendships, and ensures that irrefutable truth is sacrificed for undeniable ignorance.<\/p>\n<p style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Yet before the rapid rise of such specialized political networks, podcasts, websites, and print outlets, news was controlled by just a few nationally available sources. And since those services had to appeal to a broad audience commercially, their political commentary was typically delivered down the Cronkite middle.<\/p>\n<p style=\"font-weight: 400;\">But today the masses can satisfy their political interests through forums tailored to their positions on the political spectrum, reinforcing their beliefs and promoting increasingly unyielding extremes.<\/p>\n<p style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Thus, by drinking the polarizing Kool-Aid of the mainstream media, many are reluctant to abandon their good-versus-evil mindset, especially when feeling smugly self-righteous about Trump\u2019s supposed depravity.<\/p>\n<p style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Once adopted, such feelings of moral superiority become difficult to challenge and serve as an emotional incentive driving hatred for the President.<\/p>\n<p style=\"font-weight: 400;\">But Trump\u2019s take-no-prisoners approach is not without fault, as it has provoked endless attacks on his character, behavior, and policies. Even so, there is still time for him to realize that leading his construction empire is not the same as leading a democracy, and building casinos is not the same as building bridges across the aisle.<\/p>\n<p style=\"font-weight: 400;\">This is especially true when dealing with opponents who can\u2019t easily be dismissed with a wave of his hand, a \u201cYou\u2019re Fired\u201d decree, or unwise attacks on their character or physical attributes.<\/p>\n<p style=\"font-weight: 400;\">And who knows, perhaps a kinder, gentler Trump might finally convince progressives poisoned by bitterness to finally realize that malice masquerades as certainty, gullibility is the child of prejudice, and hatred makes fools of us all.<\/p>\n<\/p>\n<p><i><b>The views expressed in this opinion article are those of their author and are not necessarily either d or endorsed by the owners of this website.
