Personally, I do not use the word because I think it is meaningless. I do not believe in evil. I do not believe that Satan has stained souls and turned them evil. That said, branding one man as evil is, in my humble opinion, far different than branding entire populations as such.
Next to Allen’s article is another piece by Gayle Tzemach Lemmon reminding us that Bush told the Iraqi people that “America does not abandon our friends, and we will not abandon you.” Trump may not be evil, but he certainly does not display any evidence of being diplomatic or disciplined.
