Good, more Republicans need to grow a pair and do the same thing. This man is NOT a dictator despite what he wants to think... Ryan needs to go now. He’s an embarrassment to his party and family for being such a whimp.

Is this similar to Joe Wilson shouting you lie at Obama in the middle of the SOTU address?

Both certainly broke decorum, however, in Wilson's defense Obama was in fact lying when he shouted you lie at him.

Defenders of Marriott might say Trump definitely deserves the curse hurled at him. He has used worse epithets himself in public.

So when the press points out that trump is lying is that okay with you or is it "fake news"?

I dislike Trump, period. Having said that if my employee or intern said that openly at work, they'd be fired. Period. Vulgar and indecent. Grab your box and get out.

If Trump is blatantly in the middle of lying to a national TV audience like Obama was blatantly in the middle of lying to a national TV audience - is there necessarily anything wrong with pointing out that it is a lie?

There was no wiggle room - Obama was lying to the nation, because he couldn't sell Obamacare with truth.

If there is no wiggle room that Trump is lying to the nation, why would it be wrong to point out that it is a lie?

Or does decorum supersede truth?

But, that is not what this lady did, she just shouted out a swear word at him at random while on the job.

Trump called the protesting player taking a knee as mother******. On national TV. He should be able to take as well as he gives. it is the Trumpees who are all in a twist. He commented obscenely about Megan Kelly menstruating. HE is obscene.
Perhaps you don't hear these things only when someone like Caitlin yells at him.

Right. She's an intern, low level nobody with zero authority. She can be easily replaced, like a fast food cashier cursing out a cop or a customer can be replaced.

Do you people not understand the concept of authority and hierarchy anymore?

Thank God we still have the right to free speech at least for the time being.
