Serious question.. why do you dislike Donald Trump?

For those who do. I'm from the UK and don't really know why people hate him so much.

Oh, lots of reasons. He once called for the death penalty for minors, who were later acquitted on DNA evidence. Took out full page ads in newspapers talking about it. Later, after the fact he was asked about it and wouldn't even apologize, stating that he still thinks they're guilty.

He's used eminent domain to take people's land for his business ventures. We aren't fond of eminent domain being used here in the states, and especially not for private interests, it reeks of corruption.

He lies openly, and conducts himself with miserable anti-decorum, his behavior is embarrassing. There are too many instances to recount, but the most infamous is his "grab them by the pussy" remarks, in which he spoke openly about sexually assaulting women.

He has used his "charity", as a personal account.

He's demonstrated an acute lack of competence, and his presently lining his pocket at the taxpayers expense, charging federal employees to accompany him at his own properties, which they have to do.

His acts of glaring nepotism. Jared Kushner isn't nearly qualified for the positions and tasks he's responsible for.

The business deals with Russia during the campaign that his lawyer now admits are real. How easily he is swayed by the words of rival leaders, and quick to condemn longtime allies, and his complete lack of understanding of the country's global interests.

These are what come to mind at the moment.
