I’m just wondering if you’re out there. We see many C-D Trump fans who cheer and rave about every immature tweet, insult, silly comment. We know you exist.

Any Trump fans wish he would act stately as POTUS?

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

I like when he's funny but not when he's cruel like what he said about McCain, that was out of line. Don't get me wrong, I've never liked McCain but did respect his military service.

Thank you! I appreciate your honesty.

ETA: I can understand those who wanted a change in the way certain things are done, but I struggle with understanding how the lack of maturity isn’t bothersome to more of his supporters.

Agree! I thought we were about to have a thoughtful, mature discussion/debate! Oh, well...

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.

Fair enough. I appreciate your input.

IMO, his tweets impact the world, so it is pretty difficult to ignore them

"...the lack of immaturity..." Apparently you think he acts like a mature person.
Personally, I find his "tell it like I see it" style rather refreshing. I long ago got very tired of the stuffed shirt overly-diplomatic style of too many politicians who want to be known as "statesmen", and fall all over themselves trying to prove that they are, thus proving that they aren't!
I am a results-oriented person. So far, I like what trump has done. So far, I totally agree with his "America first" stance. So far, I like his "If you attack us, you will NOT like what happens to YOU!" response to threats. So far, I think he has been an adequate President. Not perfect (who could be?), but adequate.

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.

Noted.

You don’t think the tell it like it is thing gets him in trouble...with both sides—even with the people he needs in order to get things done. It’s a hindrance.

(I corrected my mistake...thanks!)
