When you give no respect, you don't deserve any respect.

Normally you try to respect the president...even when he's the other.

He's shows no respect to anyone ..

Not to his repuke opponents
Not to Obama
Not to HRC
Not to the intell community
Not to John Lewis
Not to people of color
Not to women
Not to the press
Not to a reporter with a Neurological condition
Not to a Gold star family


He should expect nothing but disrespect.

"Fuck Nazi Sympathy"

Don't respect something that has no respect
don't sympathize with something that has no sympathy
don't understand something that has no understanding
Don't give them their freedom, because they're not going to give you yours
Fuck nazi sympathy

So I think Donald and Putin are almost tied, in fact I have to give it to Putin.

Putin is a racist and a murderer, so far Donald is not a murderer, that we know of.

He has time to give in to doing the right thing, we know he knows what that is because of his longtime affiliation with the Clinton's who have dedicated the latter years of their lives to helping others, MILLIONS of others.

is a con artist and BS artist and the people fell for his carnival barking he shows people no respect not even his country. He is a disgrace to our country and to the office and he needs to be removed. He is a coward and a traitor. He won't change his spots.

He deserves no respect so let's do what Congressman Lewis did get in the streets and get to work.

He started OK: on election night gave what many described as a "conciliatory speech" which calmed at least the markets around the globe.

But then he started twittering and twittering, lashing at everyone and everything when he thought that his precious thin skin was touched.

Had he decided to be, yes, magnanimous, to let offenses go, to concentrate on his task to - gasp - listen to his advisers, he may have been now in a better position.
