      1. I watched Trump's full comments today at the CIA. You should, too.

      3. His attacks on the media were truly concerning. That's an area where I agree with his critics.

      4. But I think a lot of the criticism is overwrought. He does shtick. It's humorous. A lot of Americans find it charming.

      5. Most of the media (& almost all of the Left) doesn't get this. They end up looking like scolds. Beware "Trump Derangement Syndrome"...

      6. Trump made some valid points. Other parts were jokes. Many Americans will love it. For their own good, critics & observers must get this.

          this is his personality, and because it's not a put-on, he would be disingenuous to act otherwise. He's not the 1st.

          No. People have a right to their own opinions. I don't see humor in this person. Someone always has to explain him. Why?

          normalizing his rhetoric is scary. It's not appropriate. It's not normal. I'm not accepting this as charming. It's insulting.

          Does it remotely occur to you that it's incredibly dangerous for POTUS to constantly lie and act as a clown? Bozo has nukes now.
