The hits just keep on comin’.
The president of the United States — the man with the itchy Twitter finger — has done it again. He has tweeted a video depicting him punching out someone from CNN.
Is Donald John Trump promoting violence against the media?
Take a look right here.
Trump has failed to keep a number of campaign promises. He said he would act more “presidential” were he elected to the office. He promised to unify a nation divided badly by a rancorous political campaign. He vowed to “make America great again.”
The first two pledges have been abject failures; the third one, the “make America great” pledge was empty, as the nation already is great.
He has vented repeatedly on Twitter. He is using the social medium to — in effect — articulate presidential policy. It’s coming to us in the form we are witnessing now with the then-entertainer tackling an individual who he has portrayed as a member of a cable television news network.
What will happen if someone actually acts on what he or she has just seen on Twitter? Is it right to hold the president responsible for such action?
You be the judge.
This individual is a disgrace.
