Like it or not, President Trump was elected president. I don't understand why he has to continue campaign rallies where he talks about how he won two years ago. Give it a rest. Why does he feel the need to continually call people names, to call the press the fake news, to tweet like a child with a new phone, and to put down people who don't agree with him?

As an elected official he needs to have thicker skin. Instead he acts like the bully on the playground, pushes a leader of another country out of the way so he can be front and center of the picture, offends our allies, says dictators are smart good men, publicly denounces his own intel and incites crude and bad behavior from his followers.

I have no respect for a man who brags that he can grab women by their privates and get away with it, who speaks glowingly about the Second Amendment yet tears down the First, and generally has no class.

He needs to stop acting like a child trying to prove he is the toughest kid, put down his phone, and learn that he doesn't always have to have the last word. Something bad must have happened in his childhood to make him act so offensively disgusting.
