President Donald Trump made a rare appearance at a church last Sunday. It’s a safe bet the sermon was not based on Proverbs 15:1—”A gentle answer turns away wrath, but a harsh word stirs up anger.” If it was, it didn’t appear to have much effect.
Before and after church, the president engaged in a tweet storm that insulted several people, including the late Sen. John McCain.
Trump accuses McCain of being complicit in the leak of the Steele dossier, a private intelligence report compiled by former MI6 officer Christopher Steele for the political research firm Fusion GPS, which, among other things, alleges that in Moscow Donald Trump booked ” … the presidential suite of the Ritz Carlton Hotel, where he knew President and Michelle Obama (whom he hated) had stayed on one of their official trips to Russia,” and, while in the company of prostitutes, defiled the bed.
According to Newsweek, ” … major parts of the dossier have been verified by subsequent investigations into Russian election meddling.” Trump’s behavior at the Ritz Carlton in Moscow, however, remains unverified.
The president referred to McCain as “last in his class at Annapolis.” This was too much for McCain’s daughter, Meghan, who said on “The View” that the president is leading “a pathetic life,” adding, “He spends his weekend obsessing over great men, because he knows it, and I know it, and all of you know it, he will never be a great man.”
This is the problem with insults and anger. They invite similar responses. Nothing is affected by harshness, except a general degrading of the office and of the people who shoot rhetorical arrows at others.

Cal Thomas should go write full time for the Huffington Post.
Two words. Pound Salt. PROUD of our President!
Bull sh!t!. The worst thing the Bolsheies did was vote for skin color, instead of getting everything they wanted, only, slower.
Trump knows that to fight the enemy actually requires fighting the enemy. We haven't had a POTUS like that for a long, long time.
Our country is at war (civil war). We don’t need our leaders to be Sunday School teachers.
This world is chock-full of people who couldn’t fill Trump’s shoes to save their souls from flaming hell, but who just happen to know exactly what he ought to do in order to remain successful.
As I recall, Pipi Longstocking was quite a feisty gal.
It’s been over 200 years and I’ve yet to hear anyone utter a kind word towards Benedict Arnold — left or right. So, what’s your point, Cal?
btw, you used to be one of the good guys.
Cal, sorry, but you’re another AntiTrump RINO. McCain was a traitor, so are RINOs and Democrats. Time to retire, Cal...
McCain continues to gouge Trump from the grave via the dossier, family, and media. Trump has knife wounds in his back that will take a long time, if ever, to heal. I give him free-rein to hit back and hard.
The dossier has not been verified
Cal Thomas is an old time RINO establishment type who took it from years from the RATS. Kudos to Trump, for telling it like it is. He has good reason to despise McCain. McCain served in the war and was shot down as were hundreds of others. He also served in the senate and was a disloyal, fraudster, and traitor to the people who put him there.
But notice, he wasn't so upset that he'd vent his spleen on the backs of more than 300 million Americans.
Not exactly THE last in his class...

Yes. I’m glad the Donald is messing up McCain’s sainted image. He was no great man. He was a selfish, vindictive, traitorous, little sh*t who took great joy sticking a knife into his enemies back.
He opposed the Tea Party and called us wacka dooos. That’s McCain.
Too late, the President tried that. The McCain’s, especially John, were and are, horrible people. No, the cheek was turned once, time to fight
I see what you did there...good one!
