Trump tweets a video of him WRESTLING CNN in WWE Match

[emperus]

Because the President of the United States keeps committing comparable antics, specifically in the public stage, specifically in a way upon which they can be commented on easily?

Doesn't answer my question. Kathy Griffen wasn't elected, doesn't make policy, doesn't control Nuclear weapons, doesn't do Foreign Policy and doesn't command national media attention anytime she speaks.

Oh, I thought we were talking about the absurdity of the POTUS, not the absurdity of the b-list comedian. My bad!

 

[JMC2000]

Can someone please explain to me why people keeping comparing the antics of a C list comedian to that of the President of the United States? My gosh.

The answer to your question is something along the lines of "but her emails", and "your criminal candidate lost, get over it".

Those are usually the answers I get from Trumpaloompas when I question his antics.

 

[Stokely]

Keep on tweetin', idiot.

My embarrassment over having him represent me is so far outweighed by the damage he's doing to himself and the party. At least that's my hope. I can't do anything about it so hope is all I have.

 

[RichUK]

Trump is hilarious.

I'm glad he's your president - much lolz.

 

[UglyCasanova]

I found it moderately amusing and not particularly offensive for the idea of inciting violence. Less distasteful than Kathy Griffith's beheading, but still far in the realm of distasteful rather than dangerous.

I think it's out of bounds for the decorum of a President. If there were some jestful tussle between white house reporting and CNN, fine, but Trump has gone full-on offensive toward our press. The most important problem with this here is the President targeting and degrading a specific news outlet globally.

I agree the real problem is the purposefully eroding of the public trust in the news media. We absolutely have to fact check our news outlets and they need to hold up their end by maintaining journalistic integrity, but we've reached the point where everyone claims fake news whenever they hear something they don't like. That's the publics fault too, but our politicians (particularly on the right but both sides are guilty) absolutely love this and try to fan the flames of distrust as much as they can because anytime bad news is reported they can hide behind it and their base simply won't believe the reports. It erodes journalism and thus they are stripped of their ability to shine the spotlight on the government to hold it accountable.

That's the problem I have with the tweet, moreso even than the immaturity and non-presidential nature of it. Instead we crank the outrage level up to 11 and claim he's inciting violence against the media (just think of the choke slam!). Reasonable people hear that and roll their eyes and rightfully so, the real issue isn't discussed and the status quo continues on like usual.

Trump (and all politicians as well) does a tremendous amount wrong and there needs to be discussion and accountability for it, but that's impossible to do if everyone is simply throwing shit at the other side.

Hey, don't overlook the diminishing of the role of POTUS on the world stage due in large part to his tweeting AND real life social ineptitude.

The U.S. is no longer listed as a friend to Germany. That's where we are now.

Next POTUS is going to have to do another world apology tour.

"wants sanctions on russia"

"stayin' woke as fuck"

So you admit it. Laughing seems dark, ya know?

Journalists erode journalism far more than Trump could ever hope to with a billion tweets.

Obviously a very desirable quality in our POTUS, right?

The Free Press is the foundation of Democracy. When Trump hammers away at it, you cheer. Happy 4th, chump-

Your guy literally used the DOJ to spy on and prosecute journalists/whistleblowers.

You don't get to cry foul when trump uses words and memes.

It's actually embarassing to witness you guys do this to yourselves.

Unless, you know, we were vocally against Obama's doing bad shit and now we're also vocally against Trump's dumber shit.

Integrity is not just some imagined thing. You CAN achieve it. Just stop playing team sports with our country.

Duh-vert! It's not like Obama declared the Free Press to be the enemy of the people or that any journalist was actually prosecuted. It's not like the SCOTUS didn't side with Obama, either-

All of that was over leaks about national security, not about criticism of the President. There is a difference.

Embarrassed by our embarrassment?

Well you know you leave me no choice but to be embarrassed by your embarrassment at our embarrassment of that insecure wishes-he-knew-how-to-be-a-man-but-because-he-doesn't-he-flings-shit-around-in-fits-of-rage, wannabe-anyone-but-who-he-is-but-natural-order-won't-allow-it-so-everyone-is-gonna-pay-including-his-most-loyal-worshippers.

Skewed perspective my man. It's confounding in a why-you-keep-hitting-yourself-in-the-face kind of way (In these cases someone usually has a hold of your hand, making you hit yourself in the face <--- pssst... it's Trump. Though I leave a bit of room for the possibility that you are in fact doing it to yourself). Well done Sir!

First... Might you be in need of a library yourself? Library, liberal... Might be able to teach you something... anything. Worth a shot, yes?

Second... You like having a troll for a president? What do you think that says about you? No, seriously, you must have an answer, right? Do tell... Entertain us! Daaance my pretty.... Dance!

[thraashman]

Trump was just following Bill Clinton's example.



Yes, all four of them liked Trump, no doubt.



I'm sure they care even a little bit about your assessment of their "morality."

You voted for Trump, you're a white supremacist; PERIOD. You voted for Trump, you're an immoral piece of SHIT; PERIOD. You still support him, you're dumber than the last shit I took.
