Some of you are freakin' hilarious...

This is 2017. What Trump does is tame by comparison to the many EPIC FAILS that GROWN UPS have been responsible for lately...

"You guys"? I speak only for myself.

All of your examples show very bad judgement or bad actions. None of that excuses bad judgement by Trump. Trump wasn't that bad? So what? The fact remains that he is the president of the US and he acted childishly. Arguing about degrees of inappropriate behavior is pointless, especially for a president.

You used the term GROWN UP...as if that means something today. Look around you.

Americans have every right to talk down to the rest of the world and in any terms he wants to use.

The rest of the world is FUBAR and it’s all their own fault. He should pull out of the crap heap that is the UN and see how they feel when we toss them off our shores and keep our money. That UN building could bring some nice rents

Europe has given away their countries to despicable murdering cultist bastards. Their economies are shit and the streets are full of welfare sucking refugees. Their home grown young people have no future and beg to leave. They are all broke!

Obama and those before him stood around while Iran and others gave speeches about how America was an imperialist tyrant and the biggest problem with the world. Then they took to the podium and tried to play nice.

NOT TRUMP! Good for him!!!

8 months in and you are still making excuses for him. How much longer you can keep it up is the only question.

Excuses? I don't think so...I don't need to make excuses...what I am doing is addressing the absurdities posted here.

People need to give their heads a shake when it comes to Trump. The myths and hyperbole are off the charts...

Are people pushing these talking points solely as a cover-your-ass thing because they were epic-wrong pre-election day 2016?

I've been to Europe often. I have no idea what you are talking about.

Europe is a socialist paradise, don't you know?

For example, ask all those women who were sexually assaulted New Year's Eve in Germany...they don't talk about that much, but you can ask anyway...

Yep, you know nothing about the migrant crisis going on?

You know nothing about the welfare budgets being destroyed by the above?

Terrorist attacks in France and England? By migrants.

The no go zones? The wholesale capitulation by the British police and military?

The skyrocketing sex crime epidemic in Sweden?

How about unemployment in Spain? France? Huge numbers.

The EU now near 8 percent.



Stick your head in the sand.....

Really!? Not only was Trump candid by speaking his mind (which in itself is refreshing) but what he said was utterly truthful. At least Trump has a pair; and I consider that pretty grown up!

On your next trip, try removing the blinders before you disembark the plane.

I have, including here. The term is used as a hoped-for standard, especially for our leaders, not as an empirical observation.

Amazingly once you get beyond the childish ramblings that his followers so ardently love he called for a much stronger multi-national body which largely flies in the face of his campaign promises and MAGA stance.

Aside from that most here is still just the norm. More deflections and using past poor performance for acceptance of current poor performance.

Bannon and Company are gone, the GOP establishment is gone, and Kelly is controlling access to the Oval Office. Trump is highly influence by whoever he talked to last, and more and more, that is someone moderate if not liberal.

How did such a baby-man continue to be successful after his money-bags dad died and had nothing left to give him to prop him up?

This is a serious question, by the way, open for anyone to answer.

And don't tell me he hasn't been successful. If that were the case, he would have gone the way of Toys R Us a long time ago...

What poor performance? We might be able to justifiably criticize Trump for some things, but poor performance isn't one of them. The economic indicators say the exact opposite, and the failures to date have been the failures of the Republicans, not him.

Ok, so he's calling Un "Rocket Man". I'll agree that it seems un-Presidential to do so, particularly on that stage. But I do wonder if these things that we may not like him doing actually works. Public ridicule of a bully can be a good tactic.

As a Trump voter I can tell you that I didn't care about whether we actually were part of an international body but instead that if we were, that it work for us better and not have us always shoulder the financial and military (and human) cost. He's trying to improve that, and that's good by me.
