It bothers me to hear "President Trump"

Does that bother you?

I just don't think of him as President. To me he is just a nasty, dirty old crook. To me he is just Trump. The illegitimate president. This crass, nasty old man that I wish would disappear.

Thanks to 63 million idiots, went from a Bergman film (Obama) to a Three Stooges pie fight (Trump). It's all so very bizarre.

He's just a very successful con man who duped a lot of people. I do believe in karma, though, and I just hope
he gets what's coming to him sooner rather than later.

type the liar's name. Another thing that really bothers me is seeing mr 5 deferments hold a salute in a photo or see him in video doing it. He has no respect for our men and women in uniform nor did he see fit to defend his country in the Viet Nam war. He is a pig. I loathe him and what he has done with the life that others have allowed him to live. Think of the soldiers that never got the chances that this pig got. He owes them so much. A pamby salute just isn't good enough! My spouse served his country 21 yrs beginning in Viet Nam. I wouldn't allow our liar and deferment in chief to salute or shake his hand.

I accept that he was legally elected, but I can't bear to call that clown president.

I'm still thinking this is a nightmare and will be fixed soon.
To me he is a subject of investigations and will be charged with criminal charges.

The word and that name do not belong together. As Maher said wrapping up his show yesterday this guy is just a flim flam man, a con man, a scam artist, a usd car salesman, etc. .....and too many people were the suckers PT Barnum referenced years ago.

Hate even hearing that jerk, I mute my TV when tape is shown with him talking. I truly despise that excuse for a man.

Not my President.
