[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]OP.  The world is not a 5th grade classroom. It's more like a prison yard. He's dealing with the world's most powerful people, who have militaries and nukes and access to important natural resources. He can't stick to 5th grade classroom rules. Sorry but you sound like a lunatic. [/quote]

So we should tell kids they need to be nice now. But when they grow up, they can be as mean as they want?

You can’t see where it is bad practice to call those people with nukes and military stupid? And go on tv saying they don’t know what the F they are doing? [/quote]

"What would an elementary school student think?" is not my first concern when the US is dealing with national security issues.  That is a bizarre metric.[/quote]

It is my first concern when I think of National security issues and not increasing our odds of being targeted. Diplomacy first, always. And it is also my first concern when I consider whether a candidate would unite US citizens, but we have Trump who talks about fake stories of Haitians eating pets, blames DEI for a national tragedy plane crash when they are still literally pulling bodies from the water, and more.

He is the most disgusting president, his policies are horrible, his crypto schemes or Signal gate would tie the right's head in knots if it were a Democrat (admit it, but you will not). He has weakened the US dollar and made us an untrustworthy trade partner because he behaves like a toddler and nothing he says can be truated, literally nothing. He is a toddler, a disgrace, an embarrassment. [/quote]

If you want to say that we probably should not have attacked Iran on the grounds that it doesn't further our national security, I would be quite receptive to that logic.  But the idea that the main concern in this entire episode is [i]how things looked to OP's 5th graders,[/i] yeah, I can't endorse that kind of thinking.[/quote]

The idea that Trump is excused from talking the way he does because of National security threats is a joke (what? This is nonsense!). Nor is it supported by history of like, any president who came before him regardless of politics. Plus, if anything, his bluster makes us look like a bully and increases odds that the US is a target. Yes, his toddler style talk is embarrassing and yes, being a role model matters at the highest form of government and leadership.

Frankly, it makes him look unintelligent and weak. His immediate response to criticism isn't to counter with actual facts or knowledge, it is just to insult. He makes the US look weak. [/quote]

Okay, well, he's your president. Not really sure why you're whining about it. He's on his last term. [/quote]
