Since none of you knew my mother ( I am pretty sure) I am going to use her as an example. My mother was a kind, generous, smart southern lady. Not the kind of lady who dressed up and wore gloves, not that kind at all. She was a lady in the sense that she did not use foul language, she did not drink alcohol, she lived by her Christian faith. She was a Liberal Democrat. She thought FDR saved her country and her family. She held two bachelor's degrees and taught in public schools. She has been gone 25 years and we still hear compliments about her from former students.
I am a lot like her in values. I am not that much of a lady, have a pretty foul mouth and I do drink alcohol. I had a very responsible job for many years and knew to keep my language appropriate at work and in public. I am also a Liberal Democrat, and try to live by those Christian values I learned as a child.
So I am only partially channeling my mother when I say to Trump.
Take off that damn hat, especially indoors, did your mother not teach you and better than that? Act and look like a responsible adult. Do not use foul language in public or where you can be recorded. You look like a fool wearing that hat. Your campaign hat insulted all of us by saying the country was not great. For the life of me I cannot understand why more people were not pissed off about that slogan.
Also shut your mouth when you do not know what the hell you are talking about. Please for the sake of all us, get off Twitter, learn more about the job you are about to take.
At least pretend to act like you are a fucking adult.....and did I mention TAKE OFF THAT DAMN HAT, YOU LOOK LIKE AN OVERGROWN CHILD.....unless you play golf and then it is fine.
Also, do not talk about keeping jobs here until you and all your family members bring their manufacturing jobs back to the US.
That is all....I feel better.

It's not like that man-baby is going to understand a word you said, not to mention he'd dismiss everything said by a woman. He really doesn't realize he doesn't know about nukes and foreign policy and the way government is supposed to work, he thinks he knows it all.
So I would save my breath and limit my losses and get away from him ASAP, checking my wallet on the way out to make sure he hadn't lifted it.
I honestly don't know what's worse, the stupid hat or the stupid hair. They're both on top of a stupid man and that is very scary.

(45,806 posts)an idiot in the damn hat. I can even look past the hair. I CAN'T look by, at, or rationalize his lack of common sense brain power. I THINK he will learn through trial & error, but can we live through his learning curve? Perfect example is stupid tweet about nukes. I doubt he really wants a nuclear war but he was too uneducated about the rules o big time polotics to know how his tweet would be seen.

(3,208 posts)The other thing that bugs me about that hat is that I have always looked at that type of hat for baseball players and working folks. Trump does not know anything about actually working for a living.
I did see a huge stack of them at a nearby store yesterday. They aren't selling well! And this in an area that went for trump. I think they are already sorry and shocked about what they created.

I am hoping for gale force winds and torrential rain on January 20th - wouldn't that be a hoot, to see that fugly mane drenched and blowing around.
Not that I am going to be watching.

(12,448 posts)Dump wouldn't understand a word. Nobody has ever told him "no." Nobody has ever told him not to swear on the job, to treat women with the respect of a fellow human, to refrain from insults, to grow a ticker skin, to grow up.
Dump is in for a rude awakening. People endlessly criticize presidents, and make fun of them. If he launches a tweet storm every time those things happen like he has so far, he'll look like the moron he is.

(3,580 posts)I look at Trump & his family & think none of them bear any resemblance to people who raised me or the people I know now.
My mom is 89,I heard her say fuck once & that was when my dad was in the hospital & she was trying to get Drs to stop torturing him. Otherwise no one in my family acts like these Trump people. My family is more like the Obama's.
