    Trump's inability to let slights go without retaliation will be his undoing. He will be pliable to those who know which of his buttons to push.

    Well, back to the OP, Arnold fired the first tweet shot himself when he announced he was [HASHTAG]#neverTrump[/HASHTAG], Trump's tweet was delayed payback for that - also, I think he was disappointed in Arnold's debut on the show in his old spot.

    And Meryl did not have to open her big mouth to talk about that old story, she was trying to get attention for herself and it worked. Trump had every right to respond to the abortion queen actress. I think a lot of people think it's unpresidential to tweet but one good thing about twitter is that it bypasses traditional media, and that gripes them, too.

    Yup, those complaining don't seem to like the one man operation of leveling of the playing field...

    A dignitary should show a higher level dignity, whether it be on Twitter or elsewhere.

    So your argument is that a high ranking person should sit back and allow a lop-sided media trash him and do nothing about it or he doesn’t have dignity?

    I think I like this argument better: “The only thing necessary for the triumph of evil is for good men to do nothing.”

    Look, there is a bright side to this and yes I think many around the globe are astonished at what is going on.

    Here in front of the entire world the next president of the United States and a private citizen are having a public spat.

    Not many places can this happen. Meryl will go to bed this evening without fearing that the Secret Police will be coming to take her away. Donald got his bruised ego soothed by his response.

    ONLY IN AMERICA!

    You are going to get exhausted making excuses. I mean he hasn't even been sworn in yet. I think you know full well what he was doing when he imitated that reporter. Lie to yourself if you need to but the rest of us can see the blatantly obvious.

    No point at all to be found in that post. Shocker.

    I’ll tell what I know full well is that when I am telling a story about someone I often will imitate them, their facial movement, posture, hand movement, voice, expressions etc., I’m quite good at it actually and it can be entertaining. I envision the person and let it go. I think that is what Trump was doing and that trying to make something more out by accusing him of being a bully to disabled people is not my excuse but a sad excuse for others to put a person down...

    That's not normal behavior. In fact it's kind of bizarre. You should probably not do that.
