The pot calling the kettle black...
This is day one after the election. The electorate has spoken. Now, I am hearing a tremendous amount of people referring to President-elect Trump as a bigot. Here's the Merriam-Webster definition.
bigot
noun big·ot \ˈbi-gət\
Simple Definition of bigot
* : a person who strongly and unfairly dislikes other people, ideas, etc. : a bigoted person; especially : a person who hates or refuses to accept the members of a particular group (such as a racial or religious group)
Because he has not performed any executive duties yet, no one knows how his administration will conduct itself. I've not yet seen a politician conform too closely to campaign rhetoric, and don't really expect that now. An awful lot of what is posted against him is a strong (dare I say vehement?) and unfair dislike for what people attribute to him as being his ideas, and it is coming from people who refuse to accept or acknowledge anyone who may have or do now support him. Many of these can only see Trump supporters as being part of some sub-intelligent group.
Be careful who you are calling a bigot. It might just reveal YOUR bigotry.
