It's abhorrent for elected officials to get into public feuds. What's so bad about behaving like an adult?


Donny is unhinged. Something is wrong with him.
Right. He's not all there.

1. Not the worst but certainly not the best. "Worst" is probably just a little bit too much.
2. Obviously.
3. Define "people". This country has a long history of racial relations not just with African Americans but many other racial minorities, you expect people to just forget history and move on?

What stunned me the most is, about half the country would rather vote for someone's principles rather than character. If you seriously don't think Trump's flaws are much worse than Hilary's, then I'd suggest you get your head straight and wake up.

I can never in any good faith or conscience vote for Trump or anyone like him based on their character and how they conduct themselves. Nobody likes "political correctness", but is there no filter? Can we just run for office and start cursing? You'd get fired so fast from your job if that was the case you won't even know what hit you. Hold public officials to the same standard of decency as you'd expect of others in your daily life. Is that too much to ask?

Trump is a billionaire. Unless you are one too, he doesn't need you lecturing him on how to conduct himself in a "business environment."

He's doing just fine.

Trump is crazy like a fox. His cabinet picks have been astounding. So many amazing people with decades of successful accomplishments. I'm excited for the future.

Trump is different than any other politician because he isn't one. He has rough edges and doesn't play the political games. I like his style.

So because someone's a billionaire, the law is above them? What kind of backwards statement is that.

As far as I know, the law applies to everyone equally regardless of money.

Who cares?

A President's job performance is all that matters. So we will see.

Let's see you do that in your job. Please, start cursing at your managers, at your coworkers. Calling people out and so forth. Let's see how's your "job performance" then.
