Chump, you cheap dime store thug, you're not fit to carry his briefcase. If you were half the man Barack Obama is you might actually like yourself.
I would use a lot more colorful language but out of respect for the denizens of this online community I won't

But Trump is unseemly, low-class, and whiny, so what else could we expect?

Trump will GAIN support the more he lies and attacks the black guy.
SergeStorms
(19,193 posts)Trump has got all the supporters he's ever going to get, and he "needs" to keep them happy by ratcheting up his racist, hateful remarks ala his campaign stops. People are getting VERY tired of Trump and his whiny, 'blame everyone else but me' line of baloney. Trump's approval numbers reflect that, and I seriously doubt he's going to win any new supporters, no matter WHAT he says about Obama, Democrats, Senators, Congressmen etc. He's always passing the buck, and most SANE Americans know that the buck stops with him.

(11,730 posts)Psychological projection is a theory in psychology in which humans defend themselves against their own unconscious impulses or qualities (both positive and negative) by denying their existence in themselves while attributing them to others.[1] For example, a person who is habitually rude may constantly accuse other people of being rude. It incorporates blame shifting. - Wikipedia
Trump often accuses people of doing what he himself does on a regular basis.

(5,106 posts)(no insult meant to the majority of third graders), I felt he would lose the vote of anyone adult who thought above that level. I highly overestimated his typical voters.
Caliman73
(11,730 posts)Some, and I mean some smaller number of his voters are probably halfway decent people. I know a couple of them. The problem is that they have been so activated emotionally, that they are not thinking. They are reacting. They are aggrieved in a way that has brought their defenses up and has inhibited their ability to think critically.
Trump appeals to emotion, and not only to emotion but to "negative" emotions like fear and and anxiety (which are actually not really negative, but are associated with our most primitive responses). Those emotional states are then translated into contempt and dislike of others and then the people are manipulated into seeing this wealthy guy with a history of screwing over the little guy, as the defender of the little guy. It is a sick and twisted dynamic.

(5,330 posts)This guy is a hard-core projector who advertises his inner-faults on a regular basis.
You always know when an accusation against him hits the mark, because he immediately comes out and starts accusing someone else of those very things he's so guilty of doing himself.

SergeStorms
(19,193 posts)Trump is a coward. His rough, tough talk is nothing more than that......talk. His first instinct to cry "I'll sue you", then call his army of Attorneys. After they tell him - in a nice way - that he's full of shit, then he reverts to name calling. The classic coward. He's a very powerless person's idea of what a "powerful" man looks and acts like.

(31,109 posts)acting decent. Like a rabid dog bites because he has no choice, Trump lies and steals and hates.

mobeau69
(11,141 posts)Same old shit. Which really wasn't a "lie". Obama, like everyone does, didn't qualify every. single. word. I knew what he meant. I knew I couldn't keep my doctor if he died, moved or retired. I knew I couldn't keep my plan if I quit or lost my job. Obama didn't need to tell me that. Those things are understood and not listing every possible exception, which are an infinite number by the way, does not make what he said a lie.
Obama will not take his bait. He won't lower himself and get in an argument with a buffoon. No need to at all.

(15,322 posts)if it was a piece of shit "junk-plan"...AND THANK YOU PRESIDENT OBAMA FOR THAT!
Doctors "Never" went in and out of network prior to the ACA you know.
Insurance companies "Never" denied coverage or procedures prior to the ACA you know.
Premiums "Never" rose prior to the ACA you know.
Fuck this orange piece of shit
Old Artillery Man
(7 posts)or read someone express that Obama lied about seeing your doctor the thing what comes to mind and generates rage within me, it is the greatest lie ever told by a president. The lie that Saddam Hussein had weapons of mass destruction. Look at the damage that did to this nation. George W Bush should forever hide in a closet until he is buried.

(5,810 posts)The more ironic the thing he says, the more you can assume he is simply reflecting his own shortcomings. tRump is a pathetic, shrunken shell of a human being. He is so insecure and full of self loathing that the only way he pumps himself up to meet another day is to suck the life out of someone else.

He hates black people and the realization that Obama is one thousand times better and more successful than he is, makes him nuts.
Trump is a failure, he owes billions to criminals. Obama is one of the 3 best presidents of all time and is loved by the world.
Trump is a little man who isnt qualified to make up the weekly work schedule for your neighborhood 7/11

(10,828 posts)The Trumpster doesn't seem to realize what a hypocrite he is by calling out President Obama. Don the Con promised he would deliver much better healthcare at low, low costs and: It Would Be Easy because only Stupid people were making decisions in DC.
He said President Obama repeated his lie about keeping your doctor and plan 28 times. Well, I haven't been counting but I'm guessing Trump has repeated his 'better and cheaper' lie at least 100 times.
As for Stupid People?? Just look in the mirror, Donald. A Stupid Person will be staring back.
You cannot make this stuff up!

(5,730 posts)Accuse the Dems of everything he and the Repubs have or are doing. Obstructionists.
Dems Would not help with healtcare! $#@@?
The Repubs literally locked them out, plus Dems created healthcare.
It was the PROJECTIONIST SPEECH.
He and all of the Repub leadership are lying, narcissistic, heartless, racists who are taking over this country with a coup. Their followers seem to be multiplying. Scarry to think they are having children, breeding little Trumpsters.
Yep, Obama had class, intellect, and respect. He brought that to our country. He made some mistakes, but DT is the opposite in every way...no class, no intellect, and the most divisive Pres in modern history.
