It's easy to forgive if the policies he made don't affect you, but to those of us who felt targeted by the rhetoric he spouted day in and day out for an entire year and is now implementing those measures, the fact that millions of people knowingly voted for such a disgrace of a man because he was the only one they felt would target a group of people makes it VERY personal. So "forgiveness" (which is codeword for appeasing and moderating policies to appeal to the right wingers) isn't exactly appealing. Screw them, and screw their ideology.
