Simple as that. Some people can't handle criticism, and being in the public eye you're going to get a **** ton of it. But some are just too weak willed to deal with it.

Trump is doing quite well with the criticism.

It's the TV Pundits that are losing their minds about being criticized.

You know, Trump's friend Howard Stern begged Trump not to be President. He advised that Trump is very thin skinned and just wants to be loved and admired by all.

Obviously, President is NOT the job for that.

Hence, the unhinged tweets and tantrums by Trump. Perhaps a good anti-depressant would allow him to focus on actually doing his job.

President Snowflake cannot take criticism, but he loves to dish out out. He needs constant adoration, like the odd staff meeting when each person praised him. Or like the rallies where his personal security staff hauls off anyone that protests. He can't even have a normal press conference with Q and A from reporters because his feelings might get hurt and he needs praise so he won't blow his top.

He's a big cry baby bully. He's the laughing stock of the world.

The media CNN & MSNBC melts down on the air everyday. I have yet to see Trump cry.
Maybe they shouldn't be in media if they can handle the truth or report it.

There is no such thing as a good anti-depressant. Cannabis, however, would help Trump a great deal.

So, you find Trump's tweets sane and deliberate? The obvious actions of a rational and altogether sane person?

You believe that his responses to criticism are measure and altogether correct?

I think the pundits are in hog heaven..ratings are through the roof...and they have more of an effect on politics and policy than they ever did!

Lying and fabrication are not criticism.

The Prime Minister of Canada messed up during the 150 years of Confederation ceremony on Saturday. He mentioned all provinces but one, ironically the one province that provides financial support to most of the country. It was an "oops", but some people used the 'oops' as an opportunity to criticize.

If this had been Trump, we know he would have responded with personal insults, naming calling, and would include the word "bleeding" if referring to a woman. The Prime Minister of Canada acknowledged his error in the manner fitting of the leader of a country, and that was the end of that. Prime Minister Trudeau apparently did not think it was necessary to hit back 10 times harder when people criticized his mistake.

Trump's attitude of hitting back 10 times harder is ludicrous. People will be looking at him like he's a bit looney tunes during the G20 Summit in Germany July 7-8. If the G20 leaders know what is good for them, they will not shake hands with Trump because they now know he will yank their arms around, and they'll keep an eye on Trump because he's going to push and shove. Trump, the newbie at the G20, will be watched like a disruptive, irritating nuisance rather than listened to as the leader of a country.

If Trump supporters are unclear on how the leader of a country should act, they can look to the country to the North for an example.
