For me it isn't that I disagreed with everything. I found most of them to be ridiculous, and often not well thought out, but in truth he doesn't have an ideology and so I knew this was coming. I was one of those saying we didn't know whatbwe would get with Trump.
I think my issue is that I am social democrat populist, and when people fall for a populist message being spouted from someone who is anything but a populist it is going to do damage to the people. He is a show man and a confidence man, and enough people bought it in the right places to win him the electoral college.
