    Yet when Schiff demonstrates a sense of parody, Trump makes it all genuine and gets so outraged about it. He takes others, when it suits him, literally, so he can take some back.

    Apples and oranges. A member of Congress who is leading an effort to impeach a president has got no business misquoting the president on the very subject for which he wishes to impeach him. It exposes his lack of impartiality. It proves that he is unworthy of any credibility. I think he's a hateful little weasel for whom words like "justice" and "fairness" mean nothing.

    He is one of the worst among us.

    Seems like Turkey is real scared of Mr Trump - as of Monday night they have already started bombing runs against the Kurds. Trump the military genius strikes again.

    Around 5.3%. Not even our extreme right would welcome him here. If he came on an Official visit, we will be duly courteous and respectful to the Office, but his reception will not be warm. It would be like what he received in England.

    Only in a very general way. It comes from my former profession. I am retired.

    So, you hate trump even when your shithole has 50% higher unemployment. Did I get that right?
    Your obsession with Trump from far far away seem to be an indication of jealousy.

    Since 2016, I have been an interested observer. Trump makes himself extremely observable so it is natural enough that I would have a focus on him.

    I study it on my free time looking for tidbits of information that I can use in a practical way. Am a fan of the research Dunning and Kruger did.

    Trolling? Is that the sort of thing a POTUS should do? "People like me." Huh?

    Yeah, people like you who hate him. That question has been asked before. Is it unpresidential? Perhaps, but considering the vile hatred and lies that are directed at him, I let it slide.

    Well....I hate reminding you about a certain Birth Certificate etc, and Obama handled that Presidentially. Trump's problem is that he is playing Twitter (like a schoolkid) and is always having to fend off or deal with the silly stuff he puts there.

    I mean really, is that all you have? Funny how Trump and his supporters are called all sorts of vile things and all Lefties can come back with is the birther thing, just as they excuse all the violence against conservatives by deflecting to Charlottesville. Was Obama a smooth talker, yep. When a teleprompter was available he was so smooth, he could be screwing you royally and you would think it was great. But smooth talking like a used car salesman isn't important, it's actions not words that count and the vast majority of Obama's actions were to the detriment of this country if not illegal.
