Yes, for everybody. Just be PRESIDENTAL. Let most things just roll of his shoulders without knee-jerk replies. Learn the gift of SPIN. It can be a politicians .... best asset to not knowing a complete answer or to not look not knowledgeable and do un-true statements and exaggerations.

Just give them less bait to feed off of Mr. President. From his announcement last night of a Supreme Court nominee. He seemed to stick to a written script. Sooooo much better. I only saw the first few minutes though.

This morning, he tweeted about the cave rescue of those boys in Thailand. That wasn't offensive. You see, that's a low bar. I was expecting him to point how the US helped and how he personally sent US dive teams to assist and how we should be thanking Trump personally for their rescue.

But he didn't do that. I was pleased. That is the closest to presidential he's been so far. Let's have more of that.

So, why would you not think you were part of the other half?

"I resign" might get him the ratings he seeks.

If he hadn't had a script and some medication to calm him down he would have gone into his happy dance

Yes, that would definitely be nice.

I would call out rascals to, to protect the people of this great land.

Trump is like a magnet for everything bad. He draws those people like flies to s**t.

Yes, we all know what he said "I am self funding and will hire the best people, not the biggest donors!"

Two lies in one sentence ... typical. He ran his company with tax cheats and scam artists, he packed his campaign with criminals, he packed his cabinet with billionaire donors, he packed the west wing with lobbyists.

... and he has had the most embarrassingly high turnover rate of high level staffers for a multitude of sad reasons. His administration is scandal-ridden and he is still the odds-on favorite of NAZIs and hate-mongers.

The days of walking on pins & needles is OVER!
The days of worrying about someone elses feelings has ENDED!
It is well past due, some toes get stepped on and let them cry themselves to sleep in their pity, or Freedom & Liberty for all, is lost.




Let's do this!

You're right. What in the world was I thinking of when I believed that the interests of ALL Americans were something the POTUS should strive to serve.
