Do you dislike all Americans because of their President?

A very similar post was up for a short time yesterday before being removed for reasons only known to the poster. However, the deletion meant that some very positive comments disappeared along with an interesting sub-thread with views about why Trump was considered the lesser of two evils to some voters. I am giving a chance to those who responded to re-post or for new contributions.

Here's my answer:

No. I know of many fine Americans who have morals and integrity and who are suffering a great deal of angst an the moment as they see what's happening.

My general dislike of a country's national leader hardly affects my outlook towards a country's people.

On the whole, people are just people, regardless of which part of the world they originate from.

@Sidewinder Great attitude.

@Sidewinder That's where I'm at with it. If somebody tells me they're from a country that I know has a terrible leader, I respond with "My condolences." If that gets a laugh out of them, I know they're a good person.

@Sidewinder Until they get together in groups. Then they can be less than human.

@LordShadowfire My condolences.

@Burnley123 [i]What about[/i] your condolences? If that's an attempt at sarcasm it fails for lack of context and address.
