Proof that Trump cannot shut up..

Trump said, "I fell asleep during Obama's speech"

https://www.cnn.com/videos/politics/2018/09/07/trump-obama-speech-response-north-dakota-sot-vpx.cnn

That is more than stupid. Totally unnecessary and insulting. Something that did not need to be said, but was said anyway. If Trump wanted to argue about a point Obama made, then argue. But that is not who Trump is. He insults and demeans. Trump is who he is, was, and will be. He just cannot shut up

This crap is meant to be red meat for his "base", but it reeks of the insecurity of a bully!

He may not have "literally" fallen asleep, but I can guarantee you he zoned out plenty of times when Obama was giving historical and legitimate information to explain his points. Trump can't THINK in more than 1140 characters or less...



God I miss having someone LITERATE in the WH...and spines in the Senate, too

We've all been there; a little kid trapped in a room full of adults, and bored out of our minds.

Most of us grow up. Trump never has.

Like with facts or evidence. All he knows is how to throw dirt at the other guy. That's a cheap act that wears thin with time. It will all catch up to Trump eventually.

He doesn't want to take the time to do research study issues, and know facts and evidence. He also has lied so much and gotten away with it, that this is the way he works. And his attitude is "take it or leave it" and if you don't like it..............f**k you. And it will catch up to him and his family eventually, perhaps sooner than expected.
