Trump Amid Comey Fallout: "No Politician in History Treated Worse Than Me"

In a speech this morning at the Coast Guard Academy First Asshole said that "No Politician in History [has been] Treated Worse Than Me".

My response:

A. There has been no politician in history worse than you; and
B. On a qualitative level, I bet Republicans treated Obama worse than Democrats are treating you. Fucker.

and your party has the majority in the House, Senate and SC....if you can't get things done, it isn't because people are being rude and insulting, or fake news. It is because you are unqualified and incompetent.

What it does mean is that freedom of the press is working, the checks and balances are working some what and the legal system is working, slowly and surely we will come to some conclusion.

Now who is going to be happy with the outcome is an entirely speculative matter.

It's still happening even now. I doubt Trump is strong enough to endure what they went through.

After all, if President Trump wasn't so resolutely taking aim at his own foot, we'd have nothing to criticize him about. Well, nothing except this fact:

Committed treasonous acts by giving top secret intel to our enemies before, and
Proposed budgets designed to transfer a trillion dollars in wealth to the top 0.1% while increasing our debt that much, and
Tried to throw 24 million off healthcare before, and
Violated emoluments clause of the Constitution, and
Dismantled so many government institutions, and etc, etc.
