HOWEVER...knowing now what punch that word packs, it should not be used since it is hurtful. If anyone feels differently, then THESE word are "in": fat, retarded, minority, illegal alien....
All or nothing.

Lol. And, you do have a point.

It's almost like he was purposely dropping F bombs. He didn't sound tough at all I might add, lol.

Ever Trump's best buddy on Fox agreed with Cuomo.

Trump Turns On Conservatives Who Defended CNN's Chris Cuomo

“I say good for @ChrisCuomo,” tweeted Hannity in response. “He’s out with his 9 year old daughter, and his wife, and this guy is being a jackass in front of his family.” Cuomo “has zero to apologize for,” he added.

Lewandowski, meanwhile, said Cuomo “has every right to defend himself and his family.”

Cuomo acknowledged on Twitter that he “should be better than the guys baiting me.”

“There is a lesson: no need to add to the ugliness,” he wrote. “I should be better than what I oppose.” He did not address his likening of the insult to a racist slur, however.

Wait! He's out with his 9 year old daughter and drops the F bomb how many times and you think Fredo has nothing to apologize for?

I think that the President of the USA should have higher standards.

I think that 'unpresidential' is Trump to a tee......and I think it has brought the Presidency, the White House to whole new low standards.
Yeah, unpresidential is pretty much Trump to a tee but, in my view, this particular instance doesn't make it into that basket/bin.

Name calling is now what we all do when we get mad someone doesn't agree with us.

It's childish. I want the President to raise us up - -not lower the standards.
One of the differences with this (besides what I see as tone) is that he didn't come up with 'Fredo'. It's a mild pile on. It sounds as though you think joining in a bit on something he didn't dream up and some degree of pile on that he didn't initiate is childish. I don't think your feeling is unreasonable, I just don't think I'd categorize it that way.
