Clearly, Mr. Northey is easily amazed but this likely originates in his simplistic view of the world. Most people don't have to teach their children that family and country are important. Children can observe such truths and need not have them drummed into them.  As children are educated in a democracy they also learn values such as the rule of law, cheating is wrong, stealing is wrong, racism is wrong and degrading people is wrong. It could be that the values that Trump has publicly espoused as well as those he has been shown to privately hold, make it difficult for many who love this country and the premium it places on fairness and openness to embrace someone who is apparently so selfish and crude.  Disrespect for democratic norms and institutions tends to offend those who hold on to valued traditions and social standards of decency. Trump has trampled on many things Americans rightfully hold dear. He is deeply offensive to many, perhaps a majority if polls are any indication.
