Trump not interested in publicity?

Oh, for fun.

The man cares more about how he looks to people than the real **** he should be dealing with. He tweets more than Elon Musk, and that's a ****ing lot.

Voters are going to revoke a lot of Trump’s power this November.

You only think that because you don't like him. So you try to equate everything he does as something to get attention. That's what people do when they dislike someone. They criticize everything they do. The same was done when "W" was in office. Besides, you're trying to get back at everyone who hated Obama. It's a child's game.

It's fair to admit that some people will never like presidents just because of who they are. Happened with Obama, happening now. But some of Trump's dealings are a little off, even for the sanest conservative.

A security clearance is a privilege. It is given to those who qualify for a specific job in government if their background check shows they can be trusted, and they deserve it.

I had a security clearance in the Navy because I was sent to school to work on cryptographic communications equipment, which was classified. I didn't keep it when I left the Navy. Brennan doesn't need his clearance anymore. He shouldn't have it. Others who should lose their clearances are, Susan Rice (liar), Peter Strzok (liar, and one who, along with others, were trying to stop President Trump from becoming President, and get him removed from office if elected), Lisa Page, Burce Ohr (colluding with Russians), and others on the Mueller team.

No, I think because I have a brain. Wanting attention is not in and of itself bad, the way he goes about it though is exactly how he did when he was on tv making money. It's reality tv in the White House and reality tv is ALL about getting attention. Branding/marketing is his forte and he's fairly good at it but it relies on getting attention. That is his game.

I don't criticize everything he's done. China needed a firm talking to and though the way he went about it made me a little nauseous, it appears something might come from it. I also don't mind the Euro's paying more, but again the methodology was needlessly antagonistic. Something that is common with attention seeking bullies.

I don't give a rats behind about "getting back at" anyone. Obama is some ex-president who I don't think about very often. And he was far from my favorite president. I think he should have taken on congress like Trump has taken on the Euro's. Though he would've had better reason and done so with a bit of dignity.

You have strange thoughts on the issue. Clearly, your ability to imagine what others are thinking is badly skewed.
