Social and Hollywood elites whined and bitched about Trump long before he was ever elected. I am glad to see that he's going to continue calling out the hypocrites, whenever they try to make their whiny little crusades.

As for 4 years of a 12yo social media president, standing in front of the golden globe syncophants or running tv ads calling on electors to forego their obligations is no better than a short tweet.

Finally, when Bush was president, the comedy shows like Daily Central, and SNL spouted liberal dogma in the form of "comedy" and people start forming their opinions from that. If Trump takes that on by calling out the blatant bias it will hopefully keep those type shows a little more honest than they ever have been, or at the least highlight their bias more.

I have to ask, "If Trump takes that on by calling out the blatant bias it will hopefully keep those type shows a little more honest than they ever have been, or at the least highlight their bias more".........please explain?

There is no explaining, it is just words on top of words until we forget what the hell we were talking about. It is the same strategy that Trump has used since day one. Lol. Just keep talking and avoiding the pount and soon everyone will either be confused or forget what the point was.
The POTUS is arguing on Twitter with everyone who disagrees with him. That is all you really need to know. Impossible to believe people still do not see that this guy is mentally unfit to be potus. Impossible.
We are officially living in the Twilight Zone.

It's not that complicated. Throughout Bush2 and Pres. Obama's terms especially, the media, hard news and the secondary comedy faux news have consistently pursued a twofold strategy of putting the liberal elite on a pedestal, and attacking the leaders of any conservative movement. They have tried the same with Trump, but unlike others, he doesn't just take it, he responds, and points forces a discussion each time.

It's a lot like Reagan did with the media outlets that were available to him at the time.

edit: one other point, the more the hollywood elitists cry and whine, the more that they prove their disconnect. This is only going to hurt them in the end.

Wrong. It is not a matter of him not "taking it". If Some actor or actress lashed out at Obama, or Bush, or fucking George Washington I find it hard to believe it would bother them at all. Let alone to the point that they start tweeting about them being overrated! He is going to be the God damned POTUS! Fucking act like it!
Also, it is hardly the hollywood elitists, (Lol. So funny how Trumpers love to call them that as they applaud the Wall Street and Oil tycoons into the White house), that are thee only ones that can see this guy is insane. Again, most of our country and the free world agree. They just have a platform to make it known.

You put the presidents on a platform they don't belong. None of them were saints and most had plenty of ways, both public and private that they humiliated or brought down their opponents.

I am not putting them on a platform. I know they all have their agendas. I know they are not saints. Trust me if I thought they were Bush would have been the last guy I mentioned. Lol
This has gone so far beyond anyone's affiliations though. Can you honestly tell me that you are comfortable with the potus tweeting about nuclear weapons and Meryl Streep being overrated in basically the same breath?
My God.
He is so all over the map, he is way too sensitive to criticism, and has skin as thick as an over filled water balloon. Just concentrate on doing your fucking job. He must have more pressing issues right now than tweeting about Meryl Streep. He must.

I put the Office on a platform and I expect the people who occupy that office to respect it ,very clear Trump does not .I understand you might not like my politics or I yours ,that is the way it works.Trump it's "fake news" with Reagan it was "dis-information" there is a big difference.Thanks to Trump now there is no news agency that is a good one unless they are pro Trump and that's BS.Hell he has wrecked the reputations of the CIA,FBI and NSA.All agree the Russians hacked the election/campaigns even Trump has had to come to the realization of it but not before he did damage to this country and the Office of the President.Hell not a super fan of Obama's but he and his family have been nothing but class in that office,Trump isn't even in it yet and he has tarnished it.Keep track of the promise's he breaks or doesn't keep.

The Presidency is one man who sits in an office for 4-8 years. Those who inflate his stature above that fail at the very basic premise of our Constitution. He holds 1 position in 1 branch of a government uniquely divided and re-divided to minimize the importance of any one individual.

The office of the Presidency should not be seen as a prime minister, or a dictator, or authoritarian monarchy or any other style of government. He is an executive who should execute (see executive - execute it's amazing how that word play works) the laws of the US as passed by the US Congress. He should not be trying to make laws with a phone and a pen, nor should he be releasing enemies of the state so they can attack us again. He should be appointing people who understand how to operate and streamline large entities like the government has become.

The fundamental belief held by George Washington, truly a great man, was that the office of the President should never be seen as a seat of power like a King, or despot. Our country has followed the natural conditioning of humans to crave that the Presidency be seen as more than it is or ever was supposed to be. He makes no laws (unless his last name is Obama), He instills no budgets. Hopefully he gives a vision and voice that leads to a greater country, but the last one who successfully did that was Reagan (I would give a nod to Bill Clinton as well, but I think that the partisan divide that has so engulfed this nation started under his watch, and was inflamed by both Bush and Obama after him).

Can Trump lead this country, I don't know, but I think he's going to try a lot harder to lead every citizen then Pres's Obama and Bush combined. I loved that he knocked the Republicans down when they tried to gut the ethics board. I loved that he calls a leading Dem a clown when he makes baseless political hacks. And I love that he doesn't let a whining actress, who has zero in common with 98% of US citizens make public attacks on him without a response.

For those whose butts are hurt because the "office of the Presidency" has been tarnished, trust me when I tell you the "office of the Presidency" that has seen the likes of Garfield, Tyler, Johnson, Nixon, Bush, and Obama and survived, it will muddle past Trump as well.

Yes the office will survive Trump ,the question is will the country?
