All this corruption, deceit, collusion and even calls for his assassination coming in every direction, and you call for Trump to, “Tone it down”? That’s very odd.

Only on twitter, where he comes off poorly at times, in my opinion, for a variety of reasons. If you go back and look at my posts from the last few days, you'll see where I have been calling for him to make more public appearances, and to be more forceful in them, where he has been PC of late.

What really set me off the other day was the speech he gave after the Republican Congressmen were shot. He was too PC, on MSNBC they were even saying it sounded just like what Obama would have said. I vented on here quite a bit that day about where was the old Trump, especially at a time like this?

So I'm calling for him to ramp it up, in person, and give more press conferences like those first few he gave, and stick to the issues. But on Twitter, town it down, and quit making disjointed and cryptic comments about the investigation that others have to try explain for you later.

No, you’re wrong. Trump don’t need to tone anything down in this endless cross fire of lies, corruption and collision...That is exactly what the leftist would love for him to do.

Not going to happen.

You're overlooking one very big advantage to a Twitter message from Trump -- even an incoherent one that leads to a cult meme for the ages like his legendary "covfefe" tweet.

If Trump makes constant media appearances and press conferences or public appearances to fight this battle, he's going to give the impression that he's just a crooked politician giving the public a line of bullsh!t to save his skin. Merely going through that exercise gives the subtle message that the allegations against him have credibility.

If he posts a brief Twitter message or a rapid-fire series of them, however (especially if he posts them at 5:00 AM), he gives the impression that the whole thing is nothing more than a nuisance and he has no interest in letting it distract him from the task at hand to "Make America Great Again!"
