Team,
Kansans are known for their loving and giving spirit – helping neighbors in need and caring for their community. Many of us volunteer in our churches, give to charities, and share our blessings with friends and families.
Many of us also supported President Trump and the conservative policies of the last four years.
Yet some on the left have developed such a hatred for the former president, they've extended that to the millions of Americans who supported him.
An opinion piece in the Los Angeles Times highlights one liberal's struggle with acknowledging the genuine goodness of Trump supporters. Because of her clouded view, she complains about how to handle her neighbor – a Trumpite, as she calls him – who freely shoveled her snow-covered driveway without prompting.

She calls it an "act of aggressive niceness."
So how does the author choose to respond? She closes by offering an invitation to make amends – but only if her Republican neighbor cedes to her way of thinking.
We know there are fundamental policy differences between Republicans and Democrats, but the vile and hatred that has been lodged at Republicans is unacceptable.
We know that this country is made up of many ideas and beliefs, and there are fundamental policy differences between Republicans and Democrats. But this misguided view of patriotic Americans is harmful to the fabric of our communities – and it certainly doesn't instill a sense of unity that is being expressed by those on the left.
