Meh......Pocohantas, The Cheeto, Crooked Hillary, obamadrone, ....all names I have heard before, and long ago stopped caring about.

Our elected "leaders" on both sides of the political aisle lost their dignity and professional bearing a long time ago.....so long as "we the people" keep electing/re-electing these people, then "We the people" are the ones that that should bear the brunt of their stupidity.....watching them conduct themselves like petulant 3rd graders is a self inflicted wound.

Perhaps its time to dump all incumbents and start with a clean slate.

Really? Because I don't recall any other politician besides Gravy Crockett calling their adversaries by middle school names. If you have that knowledge, please enlighten us. Before you answer, the president of the United States has the responsibility of setting and example for how others should behave.

Nice try, by the way.

Oh, please.....spare me the hypocrisy.

Neither party can claim they are pure as the driven snow......and both dems and repubs have been heard using insulting names at one point or another.

Don't even try to play the outraged card.

Only in your own mind...otherwise show me a rule/reg/or laws that states such a thing.

You can either keep attacking me or provide me with an example. By doing the former you only continue to lose credibility.
 
This isn't the way the leader of the free world is supposed to carry himself. It's beneath the position. It does though, show the class of the trailer park trash demographic that find it acceptable.
 
Trump is an obnoxious moron.

I think that Warren and her supporters should start referring to the president as "Gravy Crockett" because he's fat and walks around with a bleached raccoon on his head.

Fair is fair.

That ****ing fool is an ill mannered, childish mess of an individual. He can't even contain his tendency to be low class at a ceremony honoring Native Americans.

He's an embarrassment to the country and that office. WTF is wrong with him? He's not funny. He's the leader of the free world, and I'd like to know when he plans to ****ing act like it.

Just a few examples that took me 15 seconds to locate.....

Texas Democrat grovels after he’s caught using N-word in awful rant about black prosecutors

I mean, really? You are so weak in the google fu that I had to find an example for you? Or do you just not want to look at your favored party in the harsh light of day?


Both sides are a failure here....

I'll bite. Which of the previous 44 Presidents used grade school insults to describe lawmakers while at a ceremony honoring American citizens?

Polar is correct.
Though I am a Republican and support my party 100 percent,everyone takes cheap shots at each other and at the end...nothing gets done.

Try LBJ.

re-read my post, and tell me where I said that?

I said both sides of the political aisle have used insults.

I don't see much to recommend either side of the red/blue aisle.....both are just as guilty at playing the name game, and both have their fair share of corruption; Which is why I advocated electing new leadership across the board.

Okay but do you not think there is a difference between those four names? Do you think that helps Native American relations when our leader throws out and calls someone Pocahontas because they incorrectly identified their heritage as Native American? This is not acceptable behavior.

You can throw out ten different names but it doesn't change the fact that calling someone Pocahontas disrespects Native Americans whereas calling someone Cheeto only disrespects a delicious orange snack.

So you agree that his behavior is unprecedented for a President. Have you advocated for new leadership in the Oval Office?

White people cling to their guns and bibles.

Pretty freaking racist , dontcha think?

I find it unacceptable across the board...lets not waste time with arguing semantics.

I find it equally classless when clueless twit brags about grabbing women by their p*ssy, or when an elitist idiot dismisses a large segment of the population by claiming that they cling to their "guns and religion".

When Warren lied about her Indian background, she made that fair play. But I did and still do think it is beneath this or any other president to go around calling other names. During the primaries and even during an general election campaign, Okay. I didn't like it then, but election campaigns have become nothing more than smear campaigns these days. They totally lack substance, ideas or visions where a candidate wants to take this country. Apparently smear campaigns work. If they didn't our politicians wouldn't use them.

You can call Trump whatever you want, everyone else does. This is what politics has become. I really don't give a hoot. Now I grew up with Fess Parker playing Davy Crockett, I have just one request. Please don't lower Davy's name in relation to Trump?

I know a lot who don't cling to those but if you honestly believe all white people do that, you are prejudiced not racist. You don't think you are actually better than white people you just have a preconceived incorrect notion all white people enjoy guns and the bible.
