I maintain that whether he originally tweeted or retweeted if from someone else, he is still responsible for the message it is conveying. He is the goddamned president. He has to show some critical thinking and some restraint on stupid shit like that. People said that W Bush was someone they would want to have a beer with and they criticized President Obama for being "aloof". Bullshit!! W was just dumb.

At least W seemed like he was easy going and playful. Trump is just a mega asshole with an inferiority complex.
