    You must be joking? Bush, Clinton & Obama were real presidents. The moron in office now isn't even close to these gentlemen. And yes, insults and bad press came to all of them, and like all previous presidents they understood it was beneath the dignity of the office to act as Trump is now. BTW, who is "stopping everything Trump wants to do" (sic) ? The Republicans have the White House, the Senate and the House - who the heck is stopping them? Perhaps they are just totally incompetent....

    From Jan 2011 to the present time Obama had a lot more opposition then Trump does - Are you saying Trump is a child and can't handle things and therefore he is justified exhibiting boorish behavior completely unworthy of the office of the POTUS?

    If you think Trump is bad, check out post #57 and prepare yourself to be appalled.

    The ctrl left is desperate for credibility. They are their own worst enemy. If they told the truth occasionally, people might consider watching. Theyre just dumb, really. Like i need cnn to retweet what Trump says..... Im perfectly capable of clicking a follow button. Lol cnn has reduced themselves to a twitter repeater....

    Clearly Trump should not be tweeting about this crap and partaking in these petty attacks. But, the chorus of the left wing crybabies looking to make Mika some victim is pathetic. She and her fiance have been taking really cheap shots for a long time, they are not innocents in the matter.

    W. Bush, Clinton and Obama were serious politicians (having served as either Governor or U.S. Senator).

    Trump is an AMATEUR (in way over his head).

    Whose election was the most EGREGIOUS MISTAKE (in American Electoral History).

    Is it really any surprise that he handles criticism like a hormonal 11-year-old Instagram Queen?

    Trump is a psychological case history that would baffle Freud.

    There are some things that is better to just let them roll off one's back. Both Reagan and G.W. knew this. Not responding makes it a 5 minute story. Responding in the fashion of Donald Trump makes the story about Trump and his response. Forget whatever caused the twitter response from him.

    There are quite a lot of folks who believe a president should act presidential. Not like a five year old throwing a temper tantrum via twitter. This name calling and constant twitter attacks is getting very tiresome and losing support for the president's policies, not because they are bad, but because his thin skinned persona who needs to constantly be in a feud. When it comes to twitter, Trump is an idiot using it to do a lot more harm to him personally than help. It's his presidency, I guess he can throw it away with his egotistical 5 year outburst if he has a mind to.

    yes, and his answer is probably along the lines of "its working just fine, I got elected didn't I?"

    agree, there are times when I question his state of mind, but then when the left goes nuts but his supporters don't, then I question my state of mind because for whatever reason those behind him don't really care, and those that are indifferent (myself included) really don't care either. I have a twitter account, but I never log in, so I never see his tweets unless someone (usually a hater)gets all mentally erect over it and posts it up here and I usually just laugh and move on with my day.

    From a personal perspective, I'm fine if Danny my drunken jet ski buddy tweets random bs, its just danny being danny... i'm NOT fine if Donald my POTUS sends out the similar crap, but his supporters just say "its just donny being donny"

    Theyre simply following the ceo's orders to create fake news for low information viewers.

    Yea, but it's different when the left wing's rage comes from their own lies. I could understand if they got butthurt because he ACTUALLY did something horrible. But all we are seeing when the facts come out is more and more lies and corruption from the left. Their rage is their own distraction. It's why 2020 will be another bad year for them.

    Old school left needs to take back their party from the snowflakes.

    One thing I learned from this tweet.

    Apparently Morning Joe is still on the air, I had no idea, I think I last watched it about a year ago and that was for about 5 minutes, shook my head and changed the channel.

    ya, sure, honestly I have no idea what the tweet is about, its confusing to me, and I really don't care.

    With that said, its just really odd and disappointing when the POTUS tosses in "bleeding badly from face lift" that's just plain weird and I can't see what is being gained from that. That's the kind of stuff that drunk danny tweets out.

    And clearly.....they just can't figure out how Trump plays them like Marks. Suckers made for the taking. Its why they can't figure out what Trump is doing no matter how much flak he takes.


    Trump seizes the advantage in war with media.....

    Donald Trump and his allies believe he’s gained a tactical advantage in his war with the media.

    As he escalates his attacks on the “failing media,” Trump and his allies are increasingly convinced that recent evidence, including the retracted CNN piece on an aspect of the Russia investigations, will prove to skeptical voters that the mainstream media has a vendetta against the administration.

    The attacks marked an escalation of Trump’s strategy of citing media bias to rally conservatives and undecided voters around the idea that the investigations of Russian influence in the 2016 election are media-driven and politically motivated.

    Some Trump allies suggested that the recent misstep at CNN is enough to justify drastic changes to how the White House deals with the press, including moving reporters out of the West Wing entirely.

    “Now would be a perfect time to move the briefing from the West Wing. I’d move [press secretary Sean] Spicer over there too,” said one top Republican aide on Capitol Hill. "The public doesn’t care where the reporters sit. If the press corps gets moved 100 feet away, it will be a one-day story. No one cares.” .....snip~

    If we have, he's a close 2nd... lol

    I don't have a problem criticizing his twitter habits, and i'm far from a hater. My stance on Donald was always "love the message, hate the messenger" so I was behind his idea's I just thought that we could do better than put a brash NY businessman out there as our countries representative. FWIW I didn't think Hillary was better, actually I think per personality is just as bad if not worse behind the scenes, she just had enough common sense to keep it behind the scenes.

    With that said, maybe Teflon Don is the only person who could have pulled off the message that resonated with me, much like Charles Barkley can say things that would probably get his co-workers fired.

    On the one hand I wish Trump would rein in the tweeting, but on the other hand I do have to admit it is sort of amusing watching the leftie haters have a meltdown every time he tweets.

    The only meltdown going on is MSNBC and CNN. The NY Times is working up to it.
    Though I agree the tweets are sillly.

    Carter was a UFO watcher. Hoover was a cross dresser. LBJ bragged about his dong. Trump is on twitter.

    Yea, Trump's not even close to the weirdest
