Your post fits in with my observation. I kind of wish that Trump avoided getting "down and dirty" with these people. Complaining about factual information and even their bias is fine with me, but I don't think he should refer to personal characteristics.
There is an old adage: Never wrestle with a pig, you will only get dirty and the pig loves it.
“I don’t think he should refer to personal characteristics.”
I know what you mean. However, it’s not as though he’d be the first POTUS to ever have done that, especially when there seems to be people who are asking for it.
Go read about what the FFs and first several presidents said about and to each other and had their minions write anonymously in newspaper articles, pamphlets, and handouts. Then read about Andy Jackson, Truman, and LBJ!
FYI....Trump IS being far MORE civil and "PRESIDENTIAL" than all of the people above!
