Think Trump may have stepped over the line on this union leader tweet

[Binders Keepers]

But then, he's stepped over the line so many times before....

Still, this could prompt a shift of opinion against him by some of the less myopic of his supporters. And maybe even a few Republican politicians will grow some cojones and denounce him--or better yet, foment palace intrigue against him. This isn't Trump bullying a famous actor or a Broadway cast. This is Trump bullying a common citizen and a family man.

1. why would the republican party care ? this is what they DO want to see in Trump

[HassleCat]

2. There is no line.

Nothing is true or false, good or bad, possible or impossible. Reality is whatever you want it to be.

4. Oceania is...

always at war with Eurasia...

[WiffenPoof]

14. Perfect. NT

[Hugin]

9. +1

Sadly.

3. a common citizen and a family man. and a union leader.

MAYBE worth something.

5. one tweet is a tragedy, a million tweets is a statistic -paraphrase attributed to Uncle Joe Stalin

[The Velveteen Ocelot]

6. He's stepped so far over the line he can't see it in his rear-view mirror.

Nothing he does seems to faze the GOPers at all.

[Arkansas Granny]

17. And that makes it even more troubling. His supporters have adopted his

"fuck you" attitude to the point that they don't care what he is doing to people and, ultimately, to us all. All they know is they won and we lost. To the victor go the spoils.

20. overstepping

as usual. I believe what goes around comes around. Trump is totally not well mentally.

7. There is no line

[Hugin]

8. There were some who thought sexual assault was the third rail.

Or shutting down Medicare.
Or shutting down the ACA.
Or privatizing the hell out of every aspect of government including; schools, parks, prisons, utilities, healthcare, the military, and etc.
Taking legal control of women's reproductive organs.

And, yet, here we are... I'd venture to say there are cemeteries full of people waiting for them to take a step too far.

We'd better do something soon before we run out of lines... But, this is what happens when a group is allowed to cheat their way into power without being told "No" in their lives. They lose all sense of decency and respect for what is real and what they want it to be.

15. Well said

There is no low too low

[-Steph-]

10. I wonder what he's trying to distract us from this time.

[uponit7771]

11. +1, we'll know in a second...if he keeps it up then he's usually trying to put out a more damanging

... smaller fire with a less damaging bigger fire

[jovibennett]

12. The fact he is putting generals into positions they have no right being in?

Like homeland security. How about the idiot he wants running the FDA? This is getting scary!

[Starry Messenger]

13. Maybe the idiots from unions who voted for Chump

might have regrets, but it is kind of too late. We don't get a redo.

[zippythepinhead]

16. Many union people

have been killed by the government throughout history. The Pinkertons were the proxy killers.

It's an american tradition. Reagan destroyed the unions.

[Ilsa]

18. He insulted a Gold Star family. Why would he give

a common man who is a union leader, or any common man, deference?

[lindysalsagal]

19. Meh. GOP's been trashing my union and profession my whole life.

Glad I can retire whenever I want to. This messed up lying world can try to survive without me.

[annabanana]

21. Union trashing is SOP for republicans for decades.. The ad hominem nature

of the tweet is pure trump
