    Only true to a small degree.

    The people want their country to be great, too. And to like their leader.

    nah...some people have dignity.....Trump has burned the bridge to the entertainment world too many times...he's actually not a very popular guy around the world of people on camera with microphones..

    Dignity would be to not tweet at all, eh?

    Why is a Trump's tweet any worse than this?

    LOL (it's not)

    people with microphones tend to like their soapbox....a lot of great human beings stood up for beliefs and confronted bad behavior....dignity....human dignity...don't get me started on how little dignity Trump has carried himself with. If it's ....chortle, chortle....butt hurt losers, untalented, unfunny whatevers....Trump embarrasses himself without seeming to know it.....I'm not proud of him as a presidential choice..and I'm holding him very accountable until he earns respect. We'll see...until then...behave like an asshole and someone will call you an asshole. It's not just tweets....it's his interviews and speeches....he's all over the map and backpedals like an Italian soldier in WWII

    If Trump's tweets are hateful, so is this.

    It looks childish.

    (Yes, Trump looks childish)

    Trash talk is not the same thing.

    That is gamesmanship.

    "I have nothing against the Viet Cong. No Viet Cong ever tried to lynch me or repress me!" Ali spent years and gave up a career for a long span with more than gamesmanship....he was an ambassador of goodwill most of his life, an anti war activist.....dig a little deeper next time Denny

    I do not have a problem with someone using tweets or a forum to voice their opinion. That includes when someone’s opinion is opposite of mine. The people reading those opinions have chosen to read them. Heck, I might even learn something.


    What I have a problem with, even when I agree with the person is. Anyone that gets up on a stage and forces their opinion on others that came to that stage for another reason. It is similar to complaining to your mother-in-law that your wife nags too much. WE DON’T CARE! And neither does the mother-in-law.

    He said nasty things about his opponents.

    I don't care if people tweet.

    If the tweet says "I hate so-and-so" it's still hateful.

    yeah, sure......has nothing to do with him using that stage to promote good all over the world or giving up his bread and butter to support his beliefs publicly...the guy was a lot more than a trash talker but he could trash talk with the best...

    Of course he did great things. He also insulted his opponents.
