Michael Hayden on CNN: "The way the president speaks, the way he acts, his mannerisms, his tone, have moved the center line of American political discourse ... There's a reason that the other 44 Presidents of the U.S. have not spoken the way this president routinely speaks."

(523 posts)He can be defined as having grossness of mind which is the opposite of delicacy and discrimination; one can say he is dull, boorish, oafish, and indelicate. Finally, and in truth, he doesn't care a dime about other people's feelings.

(7,142 posts)he rules like one. He makes deals with countries that dump money into his properties and those deals don't benefit America, they benefit the other country. That is a win for Trump because he personally makes money, he could care less about what's best for America.
I used to think he was on the verge of becoming senile, he is not smart but he is not stupid. A lot of what he does, the way he talks and his misspellings are done on purpose to make his ignorant followers believe that Trump is just one of them.
Trump isn't good at much but he is an excellent con man, with the help of the corporate media.
I pray to god that this recent pipe bomb event is not his Reichstag fire, NOT FALSE FLAG, Reichstag fire.
Election day can't get here fast enough

(17,305 posts)It's not ALL the time for me because I sometimes switch the channel or turn off the TV when I know he's coming on. I can't bear to watch or listen (particularly listen). I never agree with a thing he says.

I truly believe that our gov't and who controls it affects everything we do and how we live... finances, environment, social civility, education, etc...
I do have a life, but there is a strong undercurrent that continually reminds me that we are in the midst of losing so much with this (poor excuse of a) man as president
