Does anybody else notice the obvious here?

They are both insecure, silver-spooned, fat elites who have relied upon money and better men to handle their problems. Now they project themselves as powerful against one another. They are the little guys in the school yard who wrestle around on the ground and pretend that they are fighting. Worse, they are the kid who wants respect so they wave around their daddy's guns.

Of course, with Kim Jong-un growing up a dictator's son (and younger), his aggressiveness to do violence probably has more teeth so he would probably put his foot deep in Trump's ass. From checkbook to U.S. Military & General Mattis - Trump has truly led a pampered and protected life. So has Jong-un, but like I stated...actual dictator.

All of this absurdity would have fizzled out long ago had either if these insecure morons moved on. But Jung-un needs to continue his game for his ignorant people and Trump needs to do the same to distract his ignorant fans. Both have managed to create their own personal little facade of a pretend Cold War.

Oh please, lots of Presidents have threatened other countries before. It's nothing new and you know it (if you don't then you're extremely naive). You're really just proven my point though. Thanks. :)

YEah, right!! History is filled with US Presidents telling hostile leaders that his button is bigger than theirs is

Maybe someday, a right winger will admit to how embarrassing our President Pansy is instead of embarrasing themselves by pretending his behavior is anything but despicable.

"Will someone from his depleted and food starved regime please inform him that I too have a Nuclear Button, but it is a much bigger & more powerful one than his, and my Button works!" Trump tweeted.

The Left: OMG! HE'S GOING TO KILL BILLIONS!

The Right: You're just fear mongering. Get over your hatred. :roll:

"Will someone from his depleted and food starved regime please inform him that I too have a Nuclear Button, but it is a much bigger & more powerful one than his, and my Button works!" Obama tweeted."

The Right: OMG! HE'S GOING TO KILL BILLIONS!

The Left: You're just fear mongering. Get over your hatred. :roll:

*of course both sides would deny the obviousness of the above and claim that they wouldn't do that. That they would NEVER be so partisan.*

Here's an honest sad reality however...

I would be about as shocked to have seen Barack Obama send that tweet out as I would be if someone told me I just won the lottery. I'm not shocked in the least that the buffoon currently occupying the desk sent that tweet out.

Are both sides apt to be hypocritical? Absolutely! However, in this instance, the reality is that it's a situation that would've been highly, HIGHLY, unlikely to even have occurred for the other side (or really, for petty much ANYONE other than Trump)

There's been plenty of right wingers who have indicated that much of the President's actions are embarrassing. If you're saying "maybe" it may happen "someday", then it speaks more about your own blinders than others. There are a plethora of folks on the right....from the hardcore "nevertrumpers" who are as devotedly and mindlessly opposed to him as the diehard Trump supporters are to those who simply have disagreements with his actions or statements but aren't building their entire identity on opposition to the man....who have indicated for over a year now that they disagree with how, or find embarrassing the manner in which, Trump presents himself.

Plenty. Most notable are Adams, Lincoln, Grant, Eisenhower, Carter, Reagan, even Clinton. Obama too. In fact, there are more Presidents that come from humble or "normal" beginnings than there are the Roosevelts, Bushs, or Kennedys.

But privileged and pampered are two different things. Our historical Presidents are full of veterans (only twelve actually never served). The Kennedy's and the Bush's are veterans. This means that despite plenty being privileged, even they did not embrace the silver-spoon attitude. And just about all understood the difference between being humble and being arrogant. Nixon and Clinton (and possibly Obama, I would argue) are examples of an arrogant leader.

But Trump is a whole new beast. His arrogance is based on paying people to be respectful to him all his life. This is why he thinks nothing of his bad behavior as President, shocked that the media is quick to point that out, and now relies upon his status as POTUS to pretend he is personally respected by the world...

Yes, if you think bragging about sexually assaulting women and supporting the election of a pedophile is merely "embarrassing", you might want to take a look at the blinders you have on.

1. That's a strawman. My post wasn't speaking of any specific instance of action or statement but was speaking broadly.

2. I used "embarrassing" because it was in response to THIS post by YOU that used "embarrassment"

Why would I talk about or reference some other term than "embarrassing" when your post was about hoping someday a right winger would admit to how embarrassing Trump is. Then, when it's pointed out that people HAVE admitted that...even in this thread...you immediately change the goal post and complain about the use of embarrassment.

As is relevant to THIS THREAD, talking about Trump's use of twitter as a means of diplomacy, embarrassing in terms of his presentation is an apt and justified word.

At what point is it no lobger acceptable to note someone's posting style framed within an argument? I see specific "trolling" references made virutally hourly. On some level behaviors become patterned. And when a poster whose own posting patterns are precisely what he is accusing others of? That's out of bounds? Then why is his? All three of your quotations reference a given history of behavior. When in the course of conversation one's own patterns aren't appropriate when pointing out irony or hypocrisy? By that reasoning then historical political comments and patterns are also off the table as well?

Your pedantry in the face of his constant despicable --another adjective I used, one you are wisely ignoring--assaults on every cultural, social and moral norm that makes this country great is just as injurious as the groveling of the most slavish devotees of President Pansy.

No wonder you do not want to talk about his actual behavior. Better you devote your efforts on eliminating petty exagerrations. After all, that is the great danger we are facing, right?

And again you avoid describing his behavior as despicable. We must reserve that word for truly awful things and degrading our nations leadership and power is underserving of strong condemnation. It is merely embarrassing. :roll:

Of course the constant threats by N Korea get a pass from those who hate Trump?
