It's the entire idea of our President making such tweets at all like that. I mean I don't care what political side they're on or any of that.
He is the president of the US. That used to mean something

But we're talking about people who are running our Government. WTF are we allowing them to act like a bunch of f*cking children while at the same time actually expecting them to work for us and represent out needs???
You're allowing them to literally act like bratty children but still expect them to not f*ck everything up???
I mean at that point it's not even their fault anymore, it's yours.
Don't you get that???

When I say that Trump needs to have his twitter removed, this is what I speak of. You aren't the star of a stupid reality show anymore, you are the #ing president of the United States. Sir.

In other countries, as a president or prime minister, T's behavior in general and this particular tweet might not rise to the level of concern as it does here, because leader and head of state reside in different people. But T is Head of State as well as POTUS. As Head of State he represents American values and culture. American values and culture.
Trump is what we used to call "the ugly American". The boorish, "loud, arrogant, demeaning, thoughtless, ignorant, and ethnocentric behavior" American tourist abroad. This photo 1950s from Cuba photo started it all.
Not only is T the ugly American abroad, T is also the ugly American at home. He may be my president, but he does not represent my values or culture.

He is the president of the US. That used to mean something, even if it was always somewhat of a lie to some degree. But at least it meant them having to at a minimum project on image of someone reliable who's in charge. Why are we lowering the bar for people in power instead of raising it??? WTF is wrong with everyone here???? These are the same people who f*ck you all over and you hate it and complain about them. Why are you lowering the bar for them even more??? What do you think that is going to do for you???

When was that? I must have missed the part where "they got into trouble". You mean the impeachment hearings?
Anyway, THAT was embarrassing for a President and our nation. And it was also salacious and disgusting. Yet you wanted that kind of "class" back in the White House, didn't you? Not me.
BTW, don't call me a Trump fanboy/gal.....I voted for Bernie.
BUT, you all pushed for Hillary so Trump is on YOU

I think some of your are missing the point here.
It's not just that tweet or what he said or to whom he said it.
I don't give a damn about either of those people, Joe or Mika.
