President Donald Trump lashed out at his predecessor after he was asked to respond to former first lady Michelle Obamas critical comments about his birther conspiracy theories.
In her forthcoming memoir, she described Trumps birther falsehoods as crazy and mean-spirited, and motivated by racist bigotry, and she accused him of deliberately stoking those conspiracy theories to stir up the wingnuts and kooks.
What if someone with an unstable mind loaded a gun and drove to Washington? Michelle Obama wrote. What if that person went looking for our girls? Donald Trump, with his loud and reckless innuendos, was putting my familys safety at risk. And for this Id never forgive him.
Trump was asked Friday morning to comment on her criticism, and he attacked former President Barack Obama.

Most of us knew this, but we know that you likely felt like you needed to take the high road, and we get that. But now that we are all on the same page (well, some still seem to be clinging to their naïveté) let's take down these fuckers.

Baby Fingers responded by flinging poo at her husband.
Sounds perfectly equivalent to me.
When will Melania copy that? Maybe in her How I Be Best FLOTUS book?
