The more I think about this, the more I believe that it's not that people find him "abrasive" or necessarily "rude", but they've been told by the lying media for years that he is "abrasive" and divisive" and "rude".
My neighbor is like this and I've asked him what is so abrasive and he has a hard time explaining what he finds rude or abrasive about Trump after I state that he just tells the truth and is a "typical" New Yorker in his bluntness and honesty.
(Though I've never lived in NYC, I lived in Upstate NY for many years and visited NYC many times).
At my job in SF, there was a guy from east coast - I want to say Boston but it's been a minute. We talked about how the further west you get, the less people can handle directness, and the more careful you have to be about how you put things. He said, "back there, you can be in an 11 AM meeting yelling at each other and saying 'you're full of shit'" and the meeting ends and you all just go to lunch together."
I was at an open mic and a comic referred to a black man as “midnight” and he was baffled why the host pulled him aside and told him don’t talk like that. Literally no one cared, especially the black man who laughed the loudest. I told him pay it no mind, talk how you talk. That’s reality.
