My version would apply to people who hate all Muslims automatically
because of their "religion", and who foment hatred against Muslims
and/or attack them. The version commonly used is anyone who finds fault
with Islam, its texts, laws, customs, or specific actions of its followers.

None that amount to anything. He occasionally says things that might
sound good, but he doesn't follow through because doesn't know what he's
doing. There is far more harm and risk in having him in power that there
is benefit.

Pretty obvious actually. His supporters are suffering from severe
confirmation bias. America is not getting "Great Again", that was
meaningless hype, and his supporters know it by now.

He *is* a clinical psychologist.
