Hate won’t take us anywhere

THE EDITOR, Madam:

Donald Trump has stated ‘I HATE TAYLOR SWIFT!’ and he might be one of the few people in the world to say so, especially in all caps, but the majority love her. Many of them are American voters.

Most honest people would say that there are people they would not want to work or socialise with, but rarely anyone they hate. Hate is only negative.

The world of politics is complex, divisive, dishonest – but it shouldn’t be. Those that represent the people should represent all of the people, but that doesn’t seem likely to be the path in the US.

Look for the positive, create the positive, and support the positive.
