Trump thinks he's better than everyone else, including other (smarter) world leaders.
He was too proud to get up and mingle, that was beneath him to chase people around the room to chat with them. Maybe he expecting everybody to come to him.
I have said before, and I shall say it again: President Donald JOHN Trump's best hope against impeachment (should there be evidence to support such) or resorting to the 25th amendment, is the Republican majority in each chamber.
However, the President is alienating a lot of his Congressional support.
This is an 'opinion' piece, not factual reporting (some of our Trump supporters have difficulty in telling the two apart):
"Tom Railsback, one of the last surviving members of the House Judiciary Committee that voted to impeach Richard Nixon, recalls the moment he knew he and his party finally had to break with their wayward president. "I personally liked Richard Nixon," said Railsback, a Republican from Illinois who is now 85. "He campaigned for me. But I reached a point - a number of us did - where we all felt that this was the most important decision of our lives."
Now, this OPINION article opines that, in May 2017, Mr. Trump's support among Republicans was becoming shaky.
I have previously opined that Mr. Trump made no friends in the House when he called the House-passed healthcare bill 'mean'. Recall, he had initially called it 'well crafted' (although I doubt he read it), and hosted the Rose Garden celebration. Then, he turned on the Republican representatives. As I previously noted, it takes no great imagination to imagine the Democrat campaign ads against Republican House members next year. All will use the word "mean", as uttered by the Leader of the Republican Party.
I also doubt that he is winning friends in the Senate. Indeed, the Senate passed a bill creating even harsher sanctions against Russia (98-2) with reports coming out of Washington that Trump is pushing back and trying to ease the sanctions.
Look at yesterday's tweet storm. Instead of the media focusing on the passage of Kate's Law (which was reported on, but clearly overshadowed) the news was consumed not only with Mr. Trump's tweets, but the responses of a goodly number of Republicans (that Democrats condemned the tweets is not newsworthy).
If Donald JOHN Trump loses significant Republican support, then Trump's House of Cards will fall.
There have been reports, citing anonymous Republican sources (for the House and Senate members do not wish to be on record, yet) that Mr. Trump has little respect behind closed doors.
And for those you that claim all polls are false (save for the ones you like), remember this: House and Senate members seem to implicitly believe in polls. Both parties also conduct their own private polling. We do not know what the private polls show, but I bet it ain't that Mr. Trump has majority support among the American people.
Proof of the pudding? Look at the comments from Republicans yesterday about Mr. Trump's tweets.
I'm originally from New York, and they hate him there. Hillary Clinton won New York County (Manhattan) 87% to 10% for Trump. I'll take actual New Yorkers' view of him over a lame explanation that Liberals dislike him because he is too direct being from New York and all
NY Loves his Money! Kinda like speaking from both sides of their Liberal Mouths!
He humiliated his first wife by bringing his mistress along on a family ski holiday.
He left his second wife because he was bored and rarely sees his daughter by her.
He's inconsiderate of his third wife.
So what exactly are you seeing that speaks to Trump cherishing women?
Absolutely nothing, I was being facetious.
Frankly I can't see how any woman could have enough self-respect to look themselves in a mirror after voting for, let alone defend, this misogynist groper...
