But there is nothing wrong in attacking the looks of a president. Such speech is protected under the First Amendment. It speaks volumes that a president would stoop so low as to attack a private citizen's look on twitter. I don't care whether he "hits back" on people or not, but President should exercise far more restraint when going after people who he feels have wronged him.

So, you're saying he's not dignified in exercising his rights to free speech? Assuming the President has free speech rights, of course.

Of course, the president has free speech rights.
What is in question is whether the president's speech was dignifying of the office he holds. For instance, you and I could say "Tonto Dikeh is an ugly idiot" without any scrutiny from the public. But a president (or other public office holder) uttering such a statement reeks of immaturity and lack of appropriate sophistication.

Seriously, I Hate to get on this guys but their ignorance about America is appalling. You and I knew what Obama went through with Faux News, Breibart, Rash Slimebaugh , Sean Insahhanity and co. He never said a word and that's been presidential. Our folks in Nigeria sucking up to trump are used to despotic leaders beaten them up and jailing and maiming them. Keep that shiiit in Nigeria. How come no one is critising the clown when his cabinet members turned him to Kim Jon Un ?. I can't fathom a sane person endorsing a 71 year old president acting like a 7 year old.

The shocking, blinding, sickening hypocrisy of it all.

His minions are harping his toughness as being one who "hits back harder". seriously?? WE ARE TALKING ABOUT THE POTUS HERE, NOT SOME HIGH SCHOOL DROPOUT ON METHADONE-REPLACEMENT THERAPY!!! This is a man with the Fking nuclear codes, fa crying out loud!!

What Trump has done is the equivalent of a third world leader locking up a journalist simply for writing something critical about his government. The fact that his minions see nothing wrong with this "hit back harder" fiasco is the most shocking part.

So, now that everyone knows that Trump is immature and will not let a slight slide, who is more insane? Trump or people who push his buttons and them come back and cry when he goes nuclear on them?

By now, anybody who's entangled with Trump should have themselves to blame. Either you impeach him or you bear him till 2021. This guy has been in the public eye for decades, this is hardly out of character for him.

You can argue moral responsibility from now till we get blue in the face but, this particular tack of argument about Trump is irritating. This isn't some newly acquired habit and if it isn't it should normally get just a brief mention while moving on to other more newsworthy matters. Fixating on this will not get Trump to change his ways, if anything, he'll dig his heels in deeper and double down.

Frankly, I'm exhausted from talking about a non-issue.

From George Washington on down, tramp is a black dot on American presidency. I spent 3 days with my buddy at American military base in Wiesbaden , Germany and the American military men have very little respect for the charlatan. He's a disgrace to every decent American.

His latest tweets make my stomach churn. Can it get more disgusting?

Michelle said: When they go low, we go higher.

Melania says: When they go low, we go lower.

See the difference.

With this "president", Americans have reversed the process of civilization backward.

We have been teaching our children not to retaliate in the same coin and that two wrongs do not make it right and now this oversized baby is acting like his behavior is normal? No, it is not. It is crude, it is vulgar, it is weak, it is dangerous and it is wrong on so many levels.

I sincerely believe trump is in the early stage of Dementia. Not wishing him any ill. His father and grandfather died of dementia which is hereditary. He's a disgrace to the office of the presidency.

NYT retracts claim that ‘17 US intelligence agencies’ verified Russian DNC email hack

Correction: June 29, 2017

A White House Memo article on Monday about President Trump’s deflections and denials about Russia referred incorrectly to the source of an intelligence assessment that said Russia orchestrated hacking attacks during last year’s presidential election. The assessment was made by four intelligence agencies — the Office of the Director of National Intelligence, the Central Intelligence Agency, the Federal Bureau of Investigation and the National Security Agency. The assessment was not approved by all 17 organizations in the American intelligence community.

You People are the biggest hypocrites ever..Fox and Friends on Fox news is sorely dedicated to massage trump's ego..In fact the whole fox news massages the ego of trump..their instagram page and all social media pages is for trump..Ohh i guess you where in Kosovo when this same fox news together with trump called obama derogatory names,started the very fake news..Lest i forget,A Fake Magazine of Time is at trump's properties for years..

He started the abuse right from he's campaign days as a Presidential candidate under the GOP..Your campaign was full of abuses and insults courtesy of trump..abusing people's fathers,wives,women,genitals etc..Now you are being given back in your own coin you dey vex..

If you cant accept it,dont start it...You aint seen nothing yet


fOX news is fake news and the mouth piece of the GOP but it is by far the most unbiased cable news source in America. That is why it is still number one.

CNN on the other hand is a 24 hours fake news channel.

Trump did not start the insult the media houses started it when Trump responds they scream.

I think CNN and other media houses have lost this one.

One thing about Trump is he does not care about the dignity of the office. You hit he hits back and harder so dont hit..

The people that voted for him do not care about the insults they care about his policies

Leave the libtards. Reminds me of weak people who are tying to attempt bullying grin. When the target shocks them they begin to wail to whoever cares to listen, weeping like the snakes they are.

The silly side that always brags about being the custodians of morality cannot go high while Trump goes low? What hypocrites. Ok, Trump is such a jerk that insults people who insult him, I would assume that anyone with any modicum of common sense would know to avoid saying stewpid things about him by now knowing full well how he would respond. It's a no-brainer really.

Shouldn't it be obvious to a dignified person with common sense and strong sense of morality to avoid mudslinging someone who doesn't shy away from fighting dirty? The mental gymnastics are really interesting to see.


As they say, "person wey wear white no suppose dey fight mechanic"


Exactly, they insult him he fires back they claim the victim and shout dignity of the office. they do not know that he doesn't care.

Obviously a village skunk like you and your ilk doesn't know what being presidential is all about. A product of third world despotic rule should behave exactly the way you do. Thank God that you are not here to pollute the pool. We have enough house negroes and aunt Jemima that we don't need more of your ilk. Keep your obsession going and wonder why success is far from you.
