Read the passage from a speech by former President Richard Nixon.

I have never been a quitter. To leave office before my term is completed is abhorrent to every instinct in my body. But as President, I must put the interests of America first.

What does the word abhorrent mean?


miserable


hopeful


distasteful


encouraging
