People are so sensitive, it was a pretty funny statement. I guess we need the official cardboard cut-out puppet (p)resident only saying what the Federal Reserve Banks allow him/her to say. But that stage act has been running for more than a century now and is really old and boring by now to me.

This is pretty low, even for Trump.
Really? Are you going to try to tell me you've never listened to Chuck Schumer or Harry Reied before him?

How about Obama referring to conservatives as "tea baggers?"

You are also a bigot if you don't accept illegal aliens with open arms as citizens.

In such a world Trump is right on target for how our Prez should be.

Do you disagree?

The dems have to learn they can't do all the screwing and it not have trickle down consequences.
Ah, from the Rust Belt....

What does that say

For me it says, do as I say and not what I do.
And a little of self righteous thrown in there.
And hard to take you seriously.

Exactly....He doesn't have the guts to attack men's looks.

This is 1 reason why "feminists" and many on the left have lost a lot of credibility.

To them it is OK for a woman to insult a many but, heaven forbid a man insult a woman without being called a sexist.

Sorry, you wanted equal rights. Now that you have them you want women to be treated different.

Hypocrites to the hilt.

I repeat, "If you can't take it DON'T dish it out"!
You don't hold the president of the US to a higher standard than, well, pretty much anyone else? Guess you wouldn't bat an eye if you saw him cat calling some chick, flipping off someone... or any of the things that you might see on any street corner but not in the white house?

Still don't get the outrage. It's not like she's a child who had burns or scars. She's a grown woman (who's going after people in the political arena) who got cosmetic surgery. It's as if Spicer showed up to a press conference with Lifts in his shoes to appear 2 inches taller. I couldn't care less either way....but wearing lifts would be something that he elected to do.

Trump mentioning Mika's cosmetic surgery is as newsworthy as Obama pardoning a Turkey....or the Playboy reporter looking like a disheveled used car salesman. Who cares?
Does the picture of her look like she just had plastic surgery?

He has a thing with women and blood.

I thought he would turn away from this nonsense after he was elected, he just can't help himself. He is really an embarassment, doens't he have better things to do than these childish responses and personal insults.

Okay.
I can see that point of view, stay warm.
But in the overall picture, to say someone shouldn't say such things then go and say such things about that person.
Really doesn't help the situation and just doesn't look good.
