Even now, its still mind-boggling that over 60 million people voted for a man for president who cant even control himself on social media. Hes a mental infant who often sends out tweets that resemble something a petulant teenager with a small vocabulary might post instead of a 70-year-old man whos about to become President of the United States.
As our future president might say.. SAD!
While most Republicans have long since sold out to the man many of them once spoke of almost as negatively as they do President Obama, there are still some out there who arent afraid to speak out against Trump.
One of those individuals happens to be conservative radio host Charlie Sykes. During an interview with MSNBCs Lawrence ODonnell the two men discussed potential issues with Trumps tweeting. with Sykes offering his suggestion as to why our next president seems so addicted to the social media site.

(35,416 posts)that nut case president. They find an excuse for every stupid thing he does. I saw a guy at the gym with a Drain the Swamp shirt on. I said Trump was on Hillary
about making speeches at GS and now he brings those people in his administration. His answer "They are smart people".

Sykes is from Milwaukee near me: he was always against DT and I'm glad he hasn't caved.

(3,290 posts)hold a press conference because he is unable to answer even the most rudimentary questions on policy, foreign or domestic. Instead, he has to rely on short tweets which do not speak to the myriad problems facing our country and generally are nothing more than insults and lies about people whom he disagrees with. Truth be known he is, as far as the presidency is concerned, an illiterate dolt.

(24,450 posts)but I'm sure that they'll be fine with him as long as he will sign whatever they send him. It will be interesting to see how well they will be able to control him. I doubt that there is enough makeup in all of Russia to make Trump look like a good national/world leader.

(18,124 posts)he's a tool for the true power brokers in that city of corruption. Trump is only kept around because he is the representative figurehead of the white racist supremacist group(s) now in power in D.C. Tsunami coming and it won't stop at the coast. Since ameriKKKa is such a democracy the white male racists will obfuscate, distract and divert attentions away from their true goal....the white male in power to stay........and the world will go on, around us. until someone slips up and pushes the wrong button.....
