Can you imagine President Barack Obama tweeting this?
Can you imagine President George W. Bush tweeting this?
Can you imagine President Bill Clinton tweeting this?
Can you imagine President George Bush tweeting this?
I'm just curious what will happen when somebody complains about the unpresidential behavior of whoever succeeds Trump.

That there are no calls from Congress to investigate.

Every day that this orange idiot and says and does something stupid, I know that Mueller is at his desk counteracting that with some new piece of evidence.

(206,853 posts)I think of the previous presidental "scandals," Jimmy Carter's Playboy interview, George HW Bush didn't know the price of bread, Obama wore that tan suit. And it gets worse every day.

(206,853 posts)Every president has flaws, some more than others, but I have never doubted that any of them didn't do what they believed was right for the American people. Trump thinks of no one but Trump, and you're right, he seems to have been programmed that way. And the truly scary part is that he doesn't care. Whenever he's called out, rather than attempting to make amends like a normal human, he just doubles down...

(101,414 posts)He openly asked Russia to hack Americans. He accused an opponent's father of being part of the plot to kill JFK. He started his campaign with a racist diatribe against a neighbouring country. He built his political base with an absurd racist conspiracy theory about the president and his family lying for decades about where he was born.
The unpresidential behaviour has been there from the first time people heard of Trump.

(45,666 posts)and that proves he's not racist and world leaders fear American fire and fury once again.
Meanwhile people involved are not sure what Trump had to do with it.

(63,966 posts)to this POS dismantling the US. He is using Russian policies to do so much damage psychologically to the citizens of a country to disorient them. For example FOX news/Right wing radio, to get to those who are very weak and can be manipulated. Well we can see it's working for that 30 or 36% who are supporting this POS.
Then there are the remaining population who won't do this
