Is it taboo to say that Trump might not be what the media portrays him to be and he might do well as president?

Not taboo, just wishful thinking. We've all become much more aware of how disgustingly hateful and intolerant the people of this country are. Not all of us, of course, but enough that it's driven tons of women to seek therapy to cope, which says quite a lot. It's a scary place to be anything other than a rich white guy, now.
