I'm not 'mad'. Not sure why you think anyone is?

I think Trump is a petty idiot who wastes time on stupid insults and non-issues.

Persuasive? Where do you guys come up with this stuff?

He is 'persuading' people is that he is petty and mean and immature. 70% of the country would like him to stop tweeting, so his tweets are pretty much not 'persuasive' except to impress people that he is behaving like a fool.

Most people either don't like Michael Moore or don't care about him, so the idea that the country has been divided over Trump's tweet about Moore doesn't make any sense.
I can't keep up with the way you constantly edit your posts. Say it the first time so I can respond.


Once again - point me to where I said the tweet specifically about MICHAEL MOORE was the cause of the country divided.


Another fallacy you project.


Trump is a fool. He's the president. He should have better things to do than watch Fox News, Morning Joe and the tabloids.

How did those polls during the election work out?

If his tweets are hurting him, why do you want him to stop doing it? It seems to me that people know it helps him.

Yes, but will he shoot the morons who gave him the gun? ...or will he shoot the innocent bystanders?

That’s what’s scary.

Ok. IF he's not getting anything done but tweeting at liberals like you like, what is the problem? You are making it seem as though he's a lame duck which should be considered a major win if true.

Do you really want him focused on building the wall and other things that he ran on that I assume you don't support?

So Obama derided them in the way Trump derides others? E.g., Corker, Sessions, Ahnuld, Moore, Cruz, Rubio, to name only a few. It is a very long list.

Or did Obama say that radio hosts such as Rush and Hannity contributed to partisan fighting and discord?

Trump totally acts like the schoolyard bully he is, who makes fun of anyone who doesn't agree with him.

Obama never did that.

At this point, most would be happy if he simply behaved like a sane mature adult, never mind presidential.

Ok,, have you ever criticized OBama for anything? Obama never contributed to partisan discord?

I don't think any liberal really had a problem with Trump going after Cruz, Rubio and other conservatives. I see liberals pretending to love Romney now but 4 years ago BIden was telling a black audience that Romney wanted to put them in chains and Obama's campaign demonized him like crazy. Trump's never accused Romney of being a racist or heartless evil person.

Implies the man has cognitive reasoning skills not evidenced by behavior to date.

He would be well advised to do things that his voters like rather than his critics like you.

Democrats aren't used to a Republican that responds to their smears and insults, and has fun with it.
