What I hate the most, I think, is he is everything contrary to what I grew up thinking America was supposed to be.

Dubya was in office from childhood through adolescent and teen years - from when I was 9 through 17. I thought he lowered the bar and we couldn’t get worse than that. Ever.

The reality that we are where we are with trump would’ve been a completely foreign concept to me from childhood through young adulthood, until it actually happened.

I used to think what is actually happening now would only just be some dystopian fantasy, really thought the voters would be smarter than this. Nope.
