Even if it only took him 5 seconds, doing stuff like that is just dumb.

Hope you enjoy whatever version of Trump the Dems elect next time. Trump is dragging down the "Overton window" of what used to be considered acceptable behavior from the Oval Office. Perhaps forever.
Another entertaining post. Ridicule the people who behave rationally, respect the law, and admire normal behavior. The left is delusional, is abnormal, promotes MAPS, the trans are made first class, gender modifications are not only suggested but codified. The god the left worships by all indications is not normal or good. Not only does the left want to indoctrinate your children, they will make them hate America, drug them, cut off mammaries, cut off penii, cut in sex pockets...

And yet you come on here and ridicule Trump because he calls out the left consistently.

If the Dems had even a 60% as capable Trump they'd be championing him for global dictator for life already.

Trump goes after folks who attack him because he's really good at breaking them, whether in business, politics, or entertainment.

It also has a deterrent effect, imho.

Yes, republicans are willing to tolerate any behavior as long as it "owns the libs." That's precisely my befuddlement.

"The libs" want boys in girls' bathrooms, locker rooms, and sports. They want open borders. They want the government to pay for health care and housing. They want drag queen story hour. They want trans in the military, not a strong military. They support "Palestinian" terrorists. They want to China to produce all the goods we buy. Etc. Etc, Etc.

If the love child of Hitler and Ronald McDonald were "owning the libs", I'd allow it.

I think her ticket sales may beg to differ, but I will defer that to the dorks out there.


How tf are people cool with the POTUS tweeting out just absolute psychotic **** ? Republicans have ceded so much ground in what is now "acceptable" behavior from the Oval Office.


Lots of us have always and continue to disapprove of the random bull**** Trump spews.

But have you seriously forgotten what a farce the presidency was for 4 years? There isn't any ground being ceded by Trump after that debacle. Trump is a petty egomanic but at least he's not a dementia riddled puppet who can't even read off the teleprompter.

There's good Trump and bad Trump. This is bad Trump.

Absolutely nothing good or positive can come from this. Tens of millions of little/teenage girls are apolitical and love Taylor Swift as an entertainer. Now they see a grumpy old sh** talking man trashing her in very personal and mean ways (physical appearance). It's like he's having fun pissing women off for no reason other than his own entertainment.

I say this as someone who despises Taylor Swift, and all brainwashed white liberals.

This serves zero productive purpose and only bad can come of it.

He's the current President actually. Though the irony of you intentionally ignoring this fact while calling others babies is amusing.

So Obama spying on his political opponents campaigns to help his friends was ok. The Bidens personally profiting off Joe's elected office was fine. But Trump saying mean things on social media about Taylor Swift is a bridge too far and we must rid our government of such selfishness. Interesting.

What if…and I mean what IF…Obama spying is wrong, and a POTUS's family profiting off of elected office was also wrong (both things having Never Happened Before of course), and for whatever reason Taylor Swift lives rent-free in Trump's head and that's why he made the post?

And which of those should we be more concerned about in terms of actual leadership integrity that impacts the way our government functions?

There is nothing 'normal' about Trump's behavior. You can criticize alot about the left (rightfully so) but when it comes to leading from the oval office, there has NEVER been someone so...childish, brutish, low class, I'm struggling to find the right adjective. Biden had his issues (clearly) but he was an adult. Same with Obama, Bush, etc. But Trump's behavior is closer to that of a teenager than an 80 yr old. He's a freaking embarassment and everyone should worry about what type of person we are ok with giving power to because Trump has established a new low benchmark.

Finding that this is the main complaint of silver-TDSers.

They can't really articulate what they don't like about Trump, but he triggers some sort of internal rage.

So that's really their main issue.

Decorum.

Silver-TDSers rage over Trump's decorum.

He's unlike anything they've ever seen in their lifetime and thats the problem. Silver TDSers want things to stay the same as the world they grew up in.

I have plenty of policy complaints about Trump. I mean how much time do you have? His tariff 'policy' alone..but I digress..this thread is based on his personal conduct which I find to be absolutely psychotic and damaging to not only the integrity of the office but to our perception to other countries. You can call it 'TDS' but I'd like to think if literally ANY other President, especially a Dem, were to behave the way he does, you'd have issues with it to.

But since it's 'your team' vs 'the other team', anything critical of 'your team' is simply TDS by a 'triggered lib.'

Trump been the same guy as he was back in the 1980s.

You go back and look at early interviews of Trump and he saying same thing he's saying now. Trump was talking tariffs back in the early 80s. It was no surprise who Trump is or what his tactics are. In fact, the guy wrote a book that tells you exactly what he's gonna do.

So Trump hasn't changed. The world has changed around Trump.

I agree, precisely. I have no illusions Trump is anything other than the public persona he has always portrayed...we as a society just used to expect better but now....don't.

But back on point,

Both Trump and Taylor swift are the yin and yang of each other.

Both are billionaires.

Both are self-made w/ a little help from parents.

Both love private jets.

Both have fanatical support worldwide.

Only difference is that Trump likes to dance awkwardly in a suit, and Taylor likes to dance awkwardly in a 1950s swim-suit.

The last oval office members hoisted a puppet who engendered every horror emboldened. Trump is a loud mouth New Yorker same as Schumer or Cuomo or any other narcissistic politician for that matter. Clinton said it best, politics is a contact sport. Trump decided take the stick to the Dems. I'm glad he did.

How did Mitt work out or how about that other weak sauce McCain? How did the great Bush clan work out? They melted like butter and are now sour souls voting for the marxists. They were so great, always rolled over, and took the beating. I am not looking forward to those who yearn for the days when we populated leadership with compliant weaklings.

My posts are nothing more than my incredulous mindset that this behavior is not only accepted by Republicans but applauded. Its like watching a parent to an unruly child be proud of their child's tantrums...I'm baffled and disappointed.

Good for you. It would seem that Trump's social media postings are a much bigger priority for others though which I find amusing when you consider how little they matter compared to actual corrupt behavior or policy that impacts our govt and daily lives.

One could make a strong argument we haven't seen that since GWB. Though some only want to bring this up with Trump, which I think is more of deflection than a genuine desire for integrity at that position.

However, I think the bigger question that gets ignored is…why were so many people willing to re-elect Trump despite his flaws?

It seems to me the bigger issue is needing a POTUS that puts policies in place that don't hurt Americans. Yes, professionalism should be important and an ideal to strive for. But being cordial in public matters very little if the actual job of the POTUS isn't conducted in a way that serves the American people and their interests.

We want both. We should strive for both. Maybe we need to look in the mirror as to why we can't have both instead of blaming Trump every time he's combative.

Glad you find it funny. Sure he's a loud mouth. Better than Obama, Biden and Kamala. But maybe you prefer those three. Also, maybe don't take Joe Scarborough and Maddow serious.

As for the past.

Ron. defeated <- he's the future and he's a fighter
Jeb. defeated because he's weak poster boy of the Bush family compassionate conservative crap
Mitt. defeated because a wimp
John. a blue falcon and a wimp
