1. Of course, he's lying

He lies about everything.

2. Wherein which a President declares a grieving Gold Star widow a liar.

This reality is why I feel crappy every morning when I wake up.

3. Me, too. It's so upsetting to be faced with this every freaking day.

4. Even if he did (all the evidence is that he didn't),

it's not exactly a high bar to clear, is it?

5. now he's going after the deceased soldier's WIFE......for fuck's safe

[Miles Archer]

6. Every time he opens his mouth about this...

...I see the photo of the soldier's widow in pure and unadulterated grief, hugging his casket.

She has a child, she's pregnant, she's a widow. And on top of it, she is at the top of the news cycle because Trump just won't shut up.

He simply cannot let anything said about him pass by without a response. It's a reflex action, he's done it so consistently and for so long that he will only let this go when no one else is commenting on it.

The tweet I posted was 22 seconds old when I found it...he had just posted it. The one right below it, 30 minutes prior to that, was another rant on NFL players.

This is who he is and what he is. There are no boundaries. It's all about him and he doesn't care who gets hurt in the process.

7. That's not what she said

So the President is going after a newly-minted military widow, and making her pain and grief all about himself. Just incredible.

8. These tweets show us over and over again how bothered Trump is over his lies...

He is always testing us to see what we are thinking/saying, whether or not he snowed us and/or if he has any support left from his constituents.

I'll make it easy for you, Donald. Just assume we are not naïve enough to believe anything you say. We gave you a chance from the get-go and you blew it--from the get-go. I would suggest you stop tweeting completely and start cleaning out your desk. Also, when you go, take Kelly with you. I once thought he would keep you controlled, but I see he isn't any different than you.

Sad!

9. Liar

Trump continues to show disrespect... just like this... in front of all of us

10. NOT WHAT SHE WAS UPSET ABOUT DONNIE DUMB DUMB !! It was your tone and the fact that you had to look

... at the report to remember his name from the beginning.

11. unbelievable

this man lies w/ impunity. How someone does this is beyond me. How someone supports it is even worse.
