His cabinet. The untold wealth and how they got it. Putin's friendship and his welcoming outreach to dictators and cool disdain for those working for sustainable reasonable relations. His loathing of the physically attractive and the need for petty revenge.

Those around him are so opposite in desires from the freedom and equality and goodness that America has always tried to stand for.
