President's tweet on Wolff and Bannon

I'll be honest, this is not my favorite tweet, on the whole. I like the President's tweeting in general, but wasn't a big fan of this one. Politics is brutal, I get it. He needs to fight this battle. But I'm not getting the "Sloppy" branding of Bannon, and the crying stuff. I get that Bannon looks a bit of a mess, just seemed a bit irrelevant. I liked his initial statement on Bannon. I like that he's calling out Wolff. Curious your thoughts. Continuing to pray for the President.

Michael Wolff is a total loser who made up stories in order to sell this really boring and untruthful book. He used Sloppy Steve Bannon, who cried when he got fired and begged for his job. Now Sloppy Steve has been dumped like a dog by almost everyone. Too bad!

Agreed. There was no real need to mention Bannon at all.

That Wolff is an untrustworthy sleezebag is all he needed.

I like how you don’t have to read his tweets twice looking for hidden meaning.

He’s a Yankees fan. He talks like a Yankees fan. I appreciate his honesty and complete disregard for bad press.

Yeah and don't get me wrong, I'm not pretending to know what it's like his his shoes. Trump's made a lot of calculations that seemed off, but were dead on. I've resolved to seriously pray for the guy, as of late, along with our country.

This one I like better. Generally, you don't tout your own mental health, unless someone is starting false rumors about you. Then you're within your rights to defend yourself.

Now that Russian collusion, after one year of intense study, has proven to be a total hoax on the American public, the Democrats and their lapdogs, the Fake News Mainstream Media, are taking out the old Ronald Reagan playbook and screaming mental stability and intelligence.....

....Actually, throughout my life, my two greatest assets have been mental stability and being, like, really smart. Crooked Hillary Clinton also played these cards very hard and, as everyone knows, went down in flames. I went from VERY successful businessman, to top T.V. Star.....

....to President of the United States (on my first try). I think that would qualify as not smart, but genius....and a very stable genius at that!​

Well said, Mr. President.

I voted for Trump, and would again if faced with the same choice; however, he is an immature, insecure, self-congratulating, lacking any tact or diplomacy, horse's _ _ _ .

You forgot judgmental.

If he gives the country what he promised, his manner is not that important, but I would argue that his manner is preventing us from getting illegals deported (all of them), the wall built and reform of the welfare system, etc.

I want everything Trump promised more than he wants it, but he needs to stop acting like a child for the good of the cause.

Please do. I'd like to hear the argument.

It's not that complicated. If he were diplomatic he would get more things done and faster. He unnecessarily rubs people the wrong way, which makes them not want to cooperate with him.

You are making the false assumption that the left WANTS to cooperate; was not that important when the ZERO was in charge.

‘Member him saying, “We won, you lost, get over it!” ?? (OBAMA CARE????)

The only time the left harps on “bi-partisanship” is when they are in the minority!!!!

I was referring to those on the Right, actually. But, deals can be made with the Left as well. If one engages his opponent with diplomacy and tact, rather than inflammatory remarks (such as yours above) much can be accomplished.

Exactly. I would argue the opposite. Were it not for Trump, we'd have absolutely nothing, like we got with Bush. Trump has to deal with an array of opinions on an array of issues. How they got them all on the same page I'll never know, but he did, and things are looking pretty bright right now.

I think you're a bit naive. Politics is a wasteland. Most nice guys stay far away from it. You have to be tough, and some rough edges might come in handy. Trump is very nice at times, and at other times, he comes down like a ton of bricks. It's just the way it is. Sometimes you have to bully the bullies, or they'll destroy you. Bush is a great example.
