No, Al. The office is worthy of respect. Trump isn't. And when you say "the yanks", I'm assuming you know more of them than I do, because the ones at Mudcat (where British people talk about American politics) don't fit your statement, and many of the ones NOT on Mudcat and who voted for the other candidate don't either.

I suspect, like pretty much all of us, it can be easy to form opinions based on what some talking head on the TV concludes and spreads. If you only watch Fox, you get a very different picture than if you watch MSNBC or NPR, and if you get your news from some other source who uses one or more of those channels as their source, who knows. If you get it from the internet, you only get information from sources you choose to click on, and you won't get anything that challenges your beliefs.

Just saying don't trust any one source, and question what your opinions are based on.
