Political Correctness is what makes him ‘unpresidential’. The Kenyan had others cross that line for him. Made him look polished like the Kennedys.

The liberals have spent 60 years training on presidents as to how they have to act according to the manufactured PC rules of the left. The left has also been working on presidents to only approve middle of the road and left wing judges for the federal benches.

Trump said screw the left and their rules and has taught the right to fight back according to truth, fact, honesty, and fairness. Trump also got very aggressive in appointing conservative judges to the federal and appellate courts.

Of course the left hates him. In one term he has destroyed 60 years of their PC Bull Shit rules and manipulation of the federal judges.

That is also why the right, the conservatives love Trump. He is not afraid to be a conservative and stand up for conservative opinions and our 2A rights.

Nancy has been pushed by her kindergarten squat squad class and waters and her big mouth bunch into this stupid impeachment.

Shitty City Nancy knows damn good and well that they can not win and that the cost of this BS no crime impeachment will be the majority in the house leaving democrats with no power base in our government.

Life is good. To the left I just want to tell them to STFU and go away I do not want to hear any more of their lies.

IMHO, as a citizen of a Constitutional Monarchy, Americans are confused about what “being Presidential” means because Presidents fill two very different roles at once.

Many countries separate the roles of ceremonial Head of State and Head of Government. For instance, throughout the Commonwealth Realm (all 16 otherwise independent nations) the Monarch (currently Queen Elizabeth II) is recognized as the Head of State. The Head of State symbolizes the nation. Meanwhile, the Prime Minister(s) are the Head of Government — where the political power lies (and often lies too). We (generally) treat the Monarch (and symbol of our nation) with respect — we treat the PM as just another grubby politician.

Good manners, decorum, attention to protocols are expected of the Head of State — that and pomp and circumstance are the essence of the job. The Heads of Government are political animals — and they are judged by their ability to get things done, not on their manners.

The USA (amongst several other nations) combines the roles under the Presidency. While the President as Head of State is supposed to be “Presidential” (acting as an ersatz monarch); the President as Head of Government is required to be a political animal and get things done.

This article (rightly) focuses on the Head of Government role. When the Democrats talk about “acting Presidential”, they’re referring to the role as Head of State — but, they don’t really believe that either or they wouldn’t engage in disrespectful theatrical actions (boycotts, sitting on hands, wearing white as a protest, etc.) during the State of the Union Address, nor would they (nor their enablers in the MSM) act up, when the President (as Head of State) is hosting foreign dignitaries.

I really appreciate these comments, and I agree with them.

That being said, I can see where folks will criticize it. Here’s a likely version of their logic.

“Trump is our president, President of the United States of America, not Israel!”

The United States helps nations all over the planet. we’re in Africa, Asia, Europe, and would help Australia if it weren’t so self-sufficient. We do studies in the Arctic and the Antarctic.

We party with many nations all over the planet for our own and their own benefit.

Israel is only one nation of (probably) over 100 where the U. S. Government and it’s citizens reach out to help.

Trump is not president of all of them either.

He is however leader of the free world, and he’s doing as good a job as any other president, and perhaps better than any.

At a later time in your life, there will be a time when Leftists have more power than they should. When they do and you’re miserable, you will be condemned to remember back how you acted today.

Those who don’t appreciate Trump now, will be tormented by their actions.

Those who do, will be comforted that they stood with him when it counted.

By your definition, there are no races then, because every race has intermarried.

I don’t think that the Jews are a race,

DNA disagrees with you.

They are indeed a distinct race. Or breed if you prefer. As we are all part of the human race but people get upset when I point out there is only one race but many breed of humans and some of them look very much alike and yet on the DNA level are a totally different breed.

Most of the Trump haters could care less about the "deep State ." They have an ideological agenda, as do those who pull the strings on the personnel in the deep state."

Keep farming out all federal government departments out of the districts and northern Virginia. Term limits, slashed budgets, rule of law and limited government forever!

Ceneralized power in one place must not be our undoing

The Jewish “race” of course isn’t any more such than the Italian or Swedish or whatever. In fact, arguably less so.

Moreover, anyone can convert to Judaism, whereas converting to another race, well, isn’t really doable.

I’m for free speech across the board. That is, more of it, please—not less of it because it has been squelched in some other contexts.

But of course there are Jews not of that “breed”, as you call it. And many of what you would call “breeds” don’t get special protection.
