For the life of me as a history degree holder, I cannot recall when was the last time that a president or incoming president referred to a member of either house of Congress as a "clown".

Usually such a violation of decorum would unsettle me. But Schumer rather MORE than deserves it! (along with Pelosi, Reid, Feinstein, McCain...)

We elected DJT because of his plain talking. Good to see he hasn’t let up.

I am normally a Trump supporter. I also think his use of Twitter is innovative and brilliant. However, I do think that type of name calling is un-Presidential. It is possible to say the same thing in a different, more subtle way.

Donald doesn’t play by the old rules. We are in a new place.

Trump just isolated and froze Chuck Schumer. Even low infos will know who Clown Schumer is.

His other purpose here is to make sure the country understands that Obamacare is the Democrats’ fault. He tweeted yesterday that he sees great danger that the Republicans will catch the blame for Obamacare. He’s using the “clown” thing to make sure today’s tweet doesn’t get ignored and the message gets out.

His terms for them are more mild than them calling him a rapist or a genocidal dictator.

Two days ago Schumer called Trump “really dumb” and implied that the CIA might assassinate Trump because of his criticism of them.

How’s that for attacking an incoming president? I don’t recall the last time that happened either.

Yeah, I had a history in major and agree with you—I’m warming up to the accurate insults that the great unwashed can understand—instead of the prevaricating and backstabbing.

I also have a couple of English degrees and would rather have seen him spell it as “led”, but so it goes.

The kenyan broke the mold on Presidential decorum. No going back now. President Trump will be governing in the age of Kardashian and as a GOPer needs to be outrageous to get any attention at all.

Decorum is for suckers.

Thankfully we learned that lesson before it was too late, and realized that this is a war.

“For the life of me as a history degree holder, I cannot recall when was the last time that a president or incoming president referred to a member of either house of Congress as a “clown”.”

Schumer threatened him yesterday implying that if Trump doesn’t play ball with the dems, the intel departments have ways of making him pay.

Violation of decorum??? To speak plainly, Screw that. (Or perhaps ‘decorum my @$$’. )

And that is what I yearn to hear.....a leader who SPEAKS PLAINLY.

MAGA!!!!!!

Love seeing someone FINALLY talking down to the Fraud and Democrats!

The mindless leftist freaks who continue to support them deserve much worse.

The only violation of decorum is the gross insult to clowns.

There's an outside chance that Andrew Jackson did so.
