  • To the Editor:

    Re “Trump Enters Office Unbent and Disliked” (White House Memo, front page, Jan. 18):

    While your article on Donald Trump’s standing in public opinion polls documents a painfully apparent postelection reality, it is worth noting what these surveys generally fail to measure: depth of feeling. The president-elect’s poll numbers, already measurably low by historical standards, do not reflect the degree to which his non-supporters dislike the prospect of his presence in the Oval Office.

    One might have strongly disliked the policies of Presidents Bill Clinton, George W. Bush or Barack Obama, but in none of those cases were the pre-inaugural opinions of their non-supporters so widely and deeply fueled by feelings of dismay, disgust, trepidation, disrespect, dismissal or outright loathing.

    Mr. Trump’s administration seems likely to be a deeply divisive one, and he has so far shown more inclination to fan the flames of discord than to ameliorate them.

    Note from KBJ: It doesn't matter that people such as Steve Koss "dislike the prospect of [Donald Trump's] presence in the Oval Office." Many of us are delighted to have a competent president who loves his country, its people, its values, and its traditions. Donald Trump will be a great president, perhaps one of the greatest. He will do more for blacks than Barack Obama did, and not in exchange for their votes. He will unite this country and make it great again. Our eight-year national nightmare is almost over!
