Michael Reagan: Trump Tweets 'Absolutely Stupid Politically'

President Donald Trump should give his staff a heads up when he plans to make controversial tweets like he did on Saturday morning, alleging that former President Barack Obama ordered Trump Tower wiretapped during the election, conservative commentator Michael Reagan tells Newsmax TV.

Besides leaving his staff scrambling at unexpected controversies, Trump also killed the positive coverage he had been getting all week for his generally well-received joint address to Congress, Reagan said Monday on "The Steve Malzberg Show."

"If I was a member of his staff right now, I'd be breaking his thumbs," Reagan said. "That's what I would be doing to stop him from tweeting behind their backs with things that are, in fact, going to change the narrative of what's going on."

Reagan called Trump's tweets "absolutely stupid politically," adding that "I'm sure his staff is trying to figure out what in the world do we do to stop him from using those thumbs at 6 a.m."

Maybe politically, because politics is super lame, but otherwise very smart.

“It was brilliant. He changed the narrative after the Republicans in congress wouldn’t defend him and then Sessions recusing himself.”

Thank you Donald Trump for flushing out pretend conservatives. When push came to shove, Beck, Levin, Michael Reagan, Will, Krautheimer revealed that they’d rather play in their alloted designated contained little fiefdom sandboxes than to truly effect the ideas they sometimes espouse. These dope sell outs turned comfy as the controlled opposition, and it turns out they liked keeping it that way. Instead of jumping on the Trump Train, these imposters were caught flat footed and MIA. Where were you when a once in a lifetime non -politician bold stroke Patriot President actually and at long last does what he says? ... Oh, says the Never Trumper, I was standing alongside nancy pelosi and chuck schumer.

hey mikey - there’s a little thing called ‘need to know’. Noone on the staff needed to know until they needed to know. Got it, sunny?

Trump is President because of those tweets.

Obama is on the defensive and the Russian fake news has morphed into real news about campaign spying by the democrats.

What does he know about politics? Besides, there is something called reality. Between political suicide and factual suicide, I will take my chances with the former. The latter ends up being both as a loser.

He killed the positive coverage... lol 😂 That ended on Thursday with Sessions. By Friday morning it was all Russian all day. And that was going to be all the talk on the Sunday shows and heading into week again.

It’s true that Ron Reagan is a leftist and atheist. But he has one thing that Michael has forteited: Conviction. Ron at least is comfortable who he is.

Wrongo. The Sessions attacks that started on Wednesday afternoon ended the positive coverage. This was a next step after that to address the situation. Reagan has always been great, until 2015, but he's been massively wrong as of late.

Michael continues being wrong about the President. Maybe he should listen to the old adage - if you’re in a hole, the first thing is to stop digging.

Yeah Trump reaches 30 million people directly circumventing the MSM and forcing them to cover what he tweets.

I guess he’s mad that Trump could be more popular than his dad

...somewhere in the gene collection something got lost!

Michael Reagan does not possess his father's genes. He's adopted.

Your statement is totally accurate, as regards some of Reagan's natural children.

Thank God Ronnie didn't live long enough to see his adopted son morph into a stooge. Sadly, he had to endure his biological son Ronald McDonald morph into a fairy.

Michael Reagan has been AWOL for years. In fact, Michael just plain has been.
