Trump in terms of content though he did two very good things was not a big deal as a US President for good or for ill and yet the continuing hysteria around him on Politics.ie and elsewhere is something else.
The reason for the hysteria is that the people being hysterical see the United States as "Shining City on the Hill" and the "Last Hope for Humanity", owedtojoy has even made Lord of the Rings references to it- and Trump to them is the "abomination which desolates", his Presidency was the sacrificing of a pig to Zeus in the Holy of Holies. This is of course all about aesthetics and not political let alone ethical substance.
