I was asked why we Brits dislike Trump. This was my reply:
A few things spring to mind.
Trump lacks certain qualities which the British traditionally esteem. For instance, he has no class, no charm, no coolness, no credibility, no compassion, no wit, no warmth, no wisdom...

The singular 'they' has been used in English since at least the 14th century.
So I can only apologise that we English have been ignorantly misusing our language for hundreds of years before your country even existed, Professor Owens. Thank you for setting us straight.

So for us, the stark contrast does rather throw Trumpโs limitations into embarrassingly sharp relief. Plus, we like a laugh. And while Trump may be laughable, he has never once said anything wry, witty or even faintly amusing โ not once, not ever.
8
52
651
His idea of a joke is a crass comment, an illiterate insult, a casual act of cruelty. Trump is a troll. And like all trolls, he is never funny and he never laughs; he only crows or jeers.
3
54
627
I donโt say that rhetorically, I mean it quite literally: not once, not ever. And that fact is particularly disturbing to the British sensibility โ for us, to lack humour is almost inhuman. But with Trump, itโs a fact. He doesn't even seem to understand what a joke is.
10
48
623
Trump is neither plucky, nor an underdog. He is the exact opposite of that.
Heโs not even a spoiled rich-boy, or a greedy fat-cat.
Heโs more a fat white slug. A Jabba the Hutt of privilege.
And worse, he is that most unforgivable of all things: a bully.

And scarily, he doesnโt just talk in crude, witless insults โ he actually thinks in them. His mind is a simple bot-like algorithm of petty prejudices and knee-jerk nastiness.
There is never any under-layer of irony, complexity, nuance or depth. Itโs all surface.

Some Americans might see this as refreshingly upfront.
Well, we donโt. We see it as having no inner world, no soul.

He punches downwards โ which a gentleman should, would, could never do โ and every blow he aims is below the belt. He particularly likes to kick the vulnerable or voiceless โ losers, he calls them - and he kicks them when they are down.

After all, itโs impossible to read a single tweet, or hear him speak a sentence or two, without staring deep into the abyss.
He turns being artless into an art form; he is a Picasso of pettiness; a Shakespeare of shit.

525
So the fact that a significant minority โ perhaps a third โ of Americans look at what he does, listen to what he says, and then think...
โYeah, he seems like my kind of guyโ
...is a matter of some confusion and no little distress to British people, given that:

That is, except when he is among bullies; then he suddenly transforms into a snivelling sidekick instead.
There are unspoken rules to this stuff โ the Queensberry rules of basic decency โ and he breaks them all.

1) Americans are supposed to be nicer than us, and mostly are.
2) You donโt need to be Columbo to spot a few flaws in the man.
