Trump's response to Roseanne Barr's firing.

[Father Heathen]

Apparently criticizing a president for their misdeeds and failures is just as bad as making racist statements:
Trump Responds To ABC's 'Roseanne' Cancellation By Making It All About Himself

...and earlier this week he made memorial day about himself, too:
Donald Trump just put the 'Me' in his Memorial Day tweet

The fact that this dope still appeals to such a large portion of the public is proof that our culture is a dumpster fire.

What politician isn't about 'me'?

 

[Altfish]

Is Trump drunk or on drugs when he tweets?

From one crappy entertainer given way too much attention to another...

The comment was definitely racist but Trump actually has a point. We tolerate hate that we believe to be acceptable and it's entirely subjective. If ****ting on one person is inherently wrong then ****ting in any person is inherently wrong. Reverse racism is very real and pretty much a foundation of current left thinking, as is special pleading/special treatment.

And hey, I'm no Trump fan but things like the death of ISIL, the end of the Korean war, the decision that maybe we shouldn't support Iran having nukes, the attempt to address the opiod crisis even if they're going to hard, the desire to eliminate gangs and illegal immigration... These are all good things no matter who the president is. I like him much more than I did during the campaign.

Even if that's true, most have enough tact and self-awareness not to make such an embarrassing display of themselves.
Again, that ethics and etiquette mean so little to so many is one of the many reasons that our culture is a dumpster fire.

So you actually believe that criticizing a president for their misdeeds and failures is just as bad as making racist statements? Sorry, but Trump's imbecilic statement has no valid point, and the rest of your post has nothing to do with the topic.

I suspect Trump's just trolling the media as usual. They keep falling for it. POTUS has given new life to Twitter as a place for trolling. I wonder if Twitter will give credit due to Trump.

Funny. That's the same views conservatives had during the Obama years.

Uh, no? Conservatives didn't think Obama deserved an apology for receiving criticism regarding his performance. That doesn't even make sense.

Yeah, he's not really a witless cretin, he's only pretending to be one. Flawless presidential strategy.

 

[Father Heathen]

Trump does have a point. In Roseanne's tweet there was no reference to a determined person.

So it wasn't meant to offend anybody

The tweet direct referenced Valerie Jarrett by her initials. Roseanne even confirmed this in follow up tweets. So again, no, Trump has no valid point.

Ok...sorry then

Yes, it's the poor racists who have it so tough.

/eyeroll

Using centuries old racist epithets to dehumanize people is inherently wrong. No one is doing that to Trump or the racists. Being critical of other people is not inherently wrong.

Conservatives 'views' aren't shaped on their own, they're fed to them by the republican establishment. You were lied to about the economy.

Plus just this afternoon he signed the "right to treatment" law that says terminally ill patients have the right to try experimental drugs and treatments.

Even if that's true, most have enough tact and self-awareness not to make such an embarrassing display of themselves.

Sooo....it's okay that politicians are narcissistic megalomaniacs as long as we can't see it?

Trump Tweet:
Gee, he never called President Donald J. Trump to apologize for the HORRIBLE statements made and said about me on ABC.

Perhaps ABC should cancel the Trump presidency. That'd be cool.

When you get down to it, None. Its a popularity contest for the biggest part.

Pointing out Trump's continuous lies is not subjective nor is it hate speech.
Pointing out that Trump tries to undermine DOJ and FBI is not subjective nor is it hate speech.
Pointing out that Trump tries to undermine the Free Press is not subjective nor is it hate speech.

... but things like the death of ISIL, the end of the Korean war, the decision that maybe we shouldn't support Iran having nukes, the attempt to address the opiod crisis even if they're going to hard, the desire to eliminate gangs and illegal immigration...

RE: ISIL. Specifically, what actions did Trump take to end ISIL?

The Korean war has not ended.
Trump has had no part in the negotiations between North and South Korea.

RE: Iran Nukes. The leading nations agreed that the best way to limit Iran's nukes was the Iran Accord. By pulling out Trump showed the world the US cannot be trusted to live up to its commitments.

RE: Opiods. Let's discuss this when something, like funding, actually gets done.

RE: Gangs. Are most gang members illegal aliens? I don't know, do you?

And hey, I'm no Trump fan

I guess you are referring to the Right to Try law.

How will patients pay for these treatments/drugs? Insurance companies probably will not pay for them.
