I'm just going to talk about this part so I don't get in trouble. I have friends and classmates who were in the Obama White House who have stories about the President, his political staff and even the family behind closed doors. My father and another classmate have had interactions with Hillary. Another high school friend staffed for Harry Reid and hates him now, even though she's a far left (D). To a man (and woman) they talk about how often the politicians are horrible people to their subordinates, support staff, etc. I don't know if it's just that it's embellished for storytime. I've had two conversations with John Kerry about Small Business, and he seemed down-to-earth. But it seems that he's the exception among politicians, in that you almost have to have the gene to want to replicate a Sicilian mob boss and correct every slight with hate, discontent and meanness. I think that this President is just more open on social media and general "IDGAF" than previous high-profile politicians.
Oh, I have absolutely no doubt that there aren’t many nice people in Washington politics. It’s a swamp. But anyone who doesn’t think Trump is a swamp creature is living in a dream world. He’s got sharp alligator teeth. Unfortunately, IMO that’s the sharpest thing about him.
Bullshit. Trump is an asshole, but he’s far from stupid. One of the best things he’s done is expose how crooked everyone in DC is. I’m not saying he isn’t crooked as well, but finally we’re getting the veil lifted on this crap.
You’re entitled to your opinion as well. I think he’s just an arrogant prick, but definitely not stupid.
Can't disagree on the arrogant prick part. I probably wouldn't use the word stupid to describe him. He has a certain street smarts to him. I think dumbass is a better descriptor, which is why I chose it to begin with. His inability to let his cerebral cortex control his childish response to any challenge to his ego is the primary thing that moves him into dumbass territory. In my opinion.
I just can't see the profit in calling Trump this or that bad thing. What is with this? All I can see is covering asses with virtue signalling.
Fake news. They refused to applaud for Real Americans, many of them heroes, some of them shattered victims of leftist failures.
I know everyone has their own stories but I would be interested to hear the Obama stuff. A relative who, like you, is military got a pretty cool position in the Whitehouse during Obama's second term. He does have to interact on occasion with the President, both Obama and Trump. All his interaction with Obama according to him, were engaged, direct and very businesslike. He said he only spoke to Trump once which is surprising given his position. He said Trump was polite but the conversation which was supposed to be very detail heavy was brief and then Trump just walked away and left his staff to deal with the particulars (which was fine on this occasion). Neither were rude or abusive to the staff from what my cousin saw. Anyways, I am sure there are terrible stories of most of them. I know it takes a certain ego to rise to that level in the first place. I have other stories about Trump from a long time ago since a family member was killed in a helicopter crash while working for Trump, but all those stories are very untrustworthy because that side of the family despises Trump because of some slanderous things he said in the press after the death. So I can't really trust those stories.
Pink pussy hats are racist. Vaginas come in many different colors. Please stay current with your political correctness.
