Trump Throws A Humiliating Tantrum And Whines To Coast Guards Grads About Being Treated Unfairly

Trump hijacked a commencement address to Coast Guard grads to whine about the media and how unfairly he has been treated.


Trump said, “Look at the way I’ve been treated lately, especially by the media. No politician in history and I say this with great surety; no politician has been treated worse or more unfairly.”

People saying "forget what candidate Trump said" when that is the entirety of his political "career". He's nuts.

I automatically assumed they were quoting a tweet. It never occurred to me that he would have said something like that at a commencement ceremony.

I guess I still don't know better.

Now I am inclined to cheer him on, as long as he continues to only do damage to himself that is.

He's supposed to say something congratulatory and finish with something to inspire the graduates as they begin their new careers.

But nooo - Trump never put others first. I feel sorry for Trump, altho I recognize that his unhappiness is his own creation.

It never ceases to amaze me the thin skin this man has. His bruised ego is exposed for all the world to see.

Cry me a river, Donald! You cannot handle being President, leave and take your wretched VP, and minions with you! And don't let the door hit you in your fat ass on the way out!

Mercifully it was short.

He's going to keep his head down, fight, fight, fight and everything will turn out fine.

He's not gonna go easy, but he's gotta go.

Sigh.

How did trump get through 70 years without somebody beating the living shit him. He has fucked with people his entire life. You would think somewhere along the way he would have fuck with the wrong guy.
