He chose to make her death about him, before expressing condolences for the family, blah, blah, blah.

Why say anything?

She was a professional, and I respect professionals. I respect you guys a lot, you people a lot.
Ah, no. Trump doesn't respect professionals. He only "respects" those who are loyal and express adoration for him. This is some speech writer's pablum.

Just as in when McCain passed this unstable moron had the class of a gnat.

Trump is such a low class fool. I guess it always has to be about HIM. Who knows how he treated Cokie?

Trump was being honest as usual, and I think what he said was just fine. If you have a problem with it, look in the mirror, the problem is YOU.

Trump says Cokie Roberts 'never treated me nicely’ ...


Everyone deserves to be treated nicely, not just Trump ... and it goes both ways, just sayin'. As it is, Trump is a public figure and as such deserves scrutiny, he should expect serious in depth scrutiny. Trump dislikes that.

Trump thinks being scrutinized is not nice, when if fact it is normal, proper and professional journalism with regard to public officials in office.

The this comment. Cookie Roberts never treated me nicely but she was a professional. That as wrong as it is, is about the closest he comes to paying any respect to someone. Normally he would say something like, "Cookie Roberts was never nice to me, she was a nasty person."

Most people unlike Trump would say, "Cookie Roberts and I didn't always agree but she was a professional."

P.S. My behavior is just fine. I hammer both sides equally because they deserve it.
I had a similar reaction to his comment regarding Robert's death. Trump says thing publicly that most people would not say privately.
