I do disagree with many of things Trump has said but at the end of the day it comes down to his actions that matter the most.
Here is a question to ask yourself, do you prefer Trump telling you what he thinks or the typical politician telling you what he/she thinks you want to hear? Think about that for a minute.
Personally, I think he often says things that do not benefit anyone (his McCain comments, his gold star wife comments, and so many others...), and often these comments seem to harm him and take away from some positive things he is trying to do.
IMO, his tweets impact the world, so it is pretty difficult to ignore them
A substantial portion of the Democratic Party's core clientele is none to bright and none too couth, and some figures within the leadership (Dennis Kucinich is one of the worst) are wiling to accept, even promote such ignorance, since it serves their agenda.
Standards applied to the Low Right need to be similarly imposed upon the Low Left.
I personally think Trump is doing a great job. Do I wish he'd act like a POTUS - nope - that's why I voted for him. There's times I wish previous POTUSs would have acted like a POTUS - apologizing to the world, falling down drunk, not having sex with an intern. Trump is Trump - I don't let his tweets bother me and neither should you.
Doing what? Trump supporters say, "I support Trump." But what exactly is it that you support about Trump? You can't support his legislative victories. There are none. You can't support his high ethical and moral standards. He doesn't have them. You can't support his success in business. He filed bankruptcy three times and has been sued many times for not paying his employees. You can't support his elegance and class, because he isn't either. And you certainly can't applaud his self restraint or his hair. So what is it about Trump that is so irresistible?
For those who voted for him because he is crass and tells it like it is-- What has his callous ways got him so far? ahh-Then the deflections come and blame it on the congress/ or judicial system for not acting with his plans-or policies.
I do not care if he tweets shyte all day long- but he has screwed up some important govt business- which is leaving us more vulnerable than before. As time continues you will feel it more.
I think if I were to sum up my distaste- be one word- DEFLECTION- something I have taught my family never to do EVER,,, you did it, man up and OWN IT !
You can't support his success in business. He filed bankruptcy three times ....
Anybody that is successful in business is going to have failures, the more successful usually the longer list of failures. If they have no failures they are not taking risks, likely a very small business and will remain so. You don't measure ones success as a businessman by their failures alone.

I'm currently taking a very large personal risk on starting a new business.
I saw the title and thought for once someone is going to finally discuss policy. Then I read your post and you don't make it about policy. It's always about policy.
Go write for the tabloids
By design, all I can see is the thread title.
So...simply addressing the title, yes. I've often stated I wish he would stay off Twitter. It's embarrassing. But I am glad I voted for him and would do so again.
I do think those obsessed with his immature tweets are merely showing how empty their own heads and lives are. I only see his tweets when people on forums talk about them. I don't do Twitter myself, so I have no reason to view his account.
Agree! I thought we were about to have a thoughtful, mature discussion/debate! Oh, well...
Instead of thinking about it -- do it. You bring up the issues you like and talk about whether or not the behaviour bothers you.
I'm struggling to support Trump on issues because he hasn't really been committed to anything but The Wall -- which I don't support.
I was hoping for him to work with pharmaceutical companies to bring down prices but he hasn't.
Infrastructure spending is on hold until he can figure out taxes I think.
I thought maybe his tax plan would really help out middle income families but it really doesn't. Sure sure -- they will have maybe just under 4.00 a day extra to play with. That will allow them to what? by that brand new car -- nope.
His childish antics are what derails the focus from issues of substance. He sets the tone by reacting childishly in tweets and making statements that he believes Putin & the KGB over US intelligence...oh boy.
