The President of the United States Is a Foul-Mouthed, Cowardly Punk

Donald J. Trump is a punk. He runs his mouth constantly, but runs to hide behind others when he is called to account for his words. He can't defend himself, so he has Sarah Huckleberry Sanders do it for him in her whiny style.

Trump belittles and insults people, but only when they are not around to defend themselves. In person, his obsequious behavior towards others demonstrates his abject cowardice.

When confronted by a leader of a country which is generally considered an adversary, he smiles and kowtows to that leader. He never confronts adversaries. Instead, he attempts to mollify them to prevent any confrontation.

Instead of working on the many problems faced by our nation, he retreats to the golf course. He hides in his private quarters in the White House instead of working as most Presidents do.

He is afraid to appear in public unless the audience he addresses is hand-selected and represents his sycophantic "base." He does not stand before the press to speak, because he cannot answer their questions.

Our President is a stupid, cowardly punk. It is that simple.

he is a bully, plain and simple. I think he has negative stuff on many of his enemies and he uses it to keep them in line. I am almost sure this applies to some of his enemies in the Republican party. He is evil, plain and simple.

During the Republican primaries, Trump would insult his competitors during the "debates."

Otherwise, you've eloquently scratched the surface of the entirety of Trump's disgusting existence.

Lowest are "Short Eyes" - D. Dump is one of them, too.

Said he agreed 100 percent, even though he noted you're no fan of his. I agree with Thom, and I thank you for posting.

Cheers.

some dirty work he doesn't feel like doing. I'd bet there are plenty of Pubs who look at it the same way.

Where he whined and grovelled like a little weenie when they told him they weren't paying for his wall. Absolutely pathetic.

God, I wish someone would lose their patience with that bullying clown for once and just punch him in the face. It would be worth the stretch in the Federal pen, assuming any jury would even convict you. And anyway, even if you did go to jail, you'd be an international hero and would never pay for another beer in your life.

As with "grab 'em by the p---y," he comes across as the eternal outsider trying to fit in among Terran males. He belittles people, but he's not good at it. Paradoxically, we are riveted and talk about little else, which only convinces him that his fumbling is effective.
