I cannot think of a time in our history when a president was allowed such insanely egotistical flourishes without any ridicule. Trump does this so consistently that it's like the country is full of frogs in heating water. If Obama had ever said anything like this, Fox News would talk of nothing else for the rest of his time in office. But because it's Trump, it's just a Tuesday. And of course, once again and as always, there is no pushback from his party, so in the future, they don't get to say "I didn't like it when Trump did it", they are completely fine with it because the worst thing they could do is question Trump's ego.

Apparently liberals lost their sense of humor when they lost the election.

I mean really, Trump says in his tweet that he was joking. Obama joked around and you were fine with that.

Meanwhile, North Korea has announced they are open to talks about denuclearization. Winning!

If Obama had done it, saying he was kidding wouldn't matter. And this isn't the first time Trump has tried to make himself the ultimate supreme being of the country. His party considers his behavior acceptable, his constant, constant, constant boasting, that by anyone else, would be openly mocked to their face. With Trump, it's just a wink and a nod while he orders golf tee markers with a presidential seal for his private revenue-generating golf courses.

Trump is yanking your chain and you are falling for it.

LOL, yes he is. He sent Hillary into retirement, is undoing Obama's disaster called Obamacare, is kicking ISIS azz, gave me a tax cut.

And all the Libs can do is call you a name, scream Impeach while their heads explode and CNN tanks in the toilet.

That makes him a rock star in my book.

The big Rock Stars in the Dem party are Nancy Pulosi, crying Chuck and Maxine Waters. Better known as the new 3 Stooges.

And the same will be said to Republicans regarding future Democratic presidents. Every single time a Democratic president "offends" over half the country, we'll just say their are yanking their chain or trolling. Because there is literally nothing Trump can do that is offensive to his party and he's really pushed the limits beyond 200 plus years of history to try to.

Oh, now the excuse is "he's from New York"? Again, Trump supporters just need to remember all this for the future. We can say future presidents are just so "quirky" because they are from a given state and it's all okay and not grossly egotistical.
