Quite a few people are now coming forward with their own critiques of John McCain.Francee89 wrote: ↑Mon Mar 18, 2019 10:44 amIt’s a fair comparison when there’s two parties in this situation - one a daughter speaking up in defence of her father, and one the President spending the weekend attacking a dead man. One seems decidedly more normal than the other.AZLizardLady wrote: ↑Mon Mar 18, 2019 10:02 amI suppose if someone wishes to make those comparisons they can.
Then again, that daughter speaks up to defend at the slightest bit of provocation & heaven forbid a critique of her late dad.
She needs to understand that while she's seeing dad as just that...her late father whom she loved and respected greatly...the relationships he shared w/fellow members of Congress were not the same and in fact, John McCain had political enemies outside of the POTUS.
I stand by what I've written: I think she needs some type of grief counseling if she isn't seeking it now.
I’m sure John McCain made plenty of enemies and had plenty of feuds with other politicians over the years. However, none of those people have spent the weekend (or any other time) tweeting out insults about him. Melania’s #BeBest initiative seems to be working!
Do you think it’s normal or indicative of being polite and classy for the President to be attacking a dead man on Twitter when there are literally thousands of more pressing things he could be dealing with? Should he seek some sort of mental help for the compulsion to do that?
I don't believe that it's polite nor classy for anyone to go on the attack (we see it in HERE practically daily) on any type of social media forum. It's not necessary and indicative of a desperate need on the part of those who DO attack to get their heads out of their asses and learn how to converse like adults.
The President has been wrong and has made some VERY cringe-worthy comments. He needs to learn (I've written this numerous times in here) to shine on the critiques and even baits he receives daily on Twitter and other social media forums.
Hell, he needs to stay OFF of social media as much as possible.
We can't always (as a society) do the knee-jerk response of "do they need mental help" when someone behaves as he does. Reason being, he would not stand alone in that need if it were true.
Sometimes people just react as they choose to, whether or not we think they should. Sometimes people are shitty in their behavior. Sometimes people don't care what others feel about HOW they approach things, Trump (again) not being an exception to this. Again, look at some of the women who post here and formerly did on the old CM?
Trump has always had a braggart, arrogant, ready-to-fight attitude. That's not an excuse from me and honestly, those are three traits I cannot stand in anyone, and one of a dozen reasons why I didn't vote for him in 2016.
Decorum, tact, eloquence...these are not three things I would describe Trump as in situations like this. Should he learn all three? Yes, but again, he's not alone.
