First of all regarding the Trump re-tweet about knocking Hillary down I'd love to see it so if someone has a link to it please post it. I'm not offended he would re=tweet it as a person because I'm pretty sure it's hilarious. As President though, like a pastor is held to higher standards, I think that anything a President does affect people's impression of the "Office of the President" and thus the question "is it Presidential"? That said those standards of Presidential activity and actions have all gone out the window with President Obama as he was the most un-presidential President we have had as he apparently had NO respect for the office.
Regarding Hillary and her speech before the NAACP or whoever it was before with that horrendous faked dialect or accent that was the greatest evidence there is that there is such hypocrisy in media and Democratic circles. Had that been a Conservative or republican that used that fake accent it would be "Breaking News" across the spectrum and there would have been such an immediate uproar among those in attendance that only with Police protection would the Republican or Conservative get out of the room without some kind of abuse. Hillary got away with it because all those in attendance held their nose (so to say) and accepted it. The news media ignored it because she was of the same mindset and political agenda as they are. It's reprehensible but accepted and should nullify any offense that the same people say they feel at statements some Republicans make.
Trump isn't "presidental", so what? Obama wasn't presidental, and from what we saw of her during her campaign and up to now, neither would Hillary be presidental. One good thing about Trump is the fact he is not PC.
I wasn't trying to say it was un-presidential. I do believe that over the years there has been a perception that certain Presidents have conducted themselves to try and maintain a certain reverence for the Office, Presidents such as Reagan and both Bush's but certainly the President is human, all of them are. One only has to look at Kennedy and the number of women he brought into the White House and who even knows the number he had outside the White House, that were snuck into Hotels etc. I also listened to many of the tapes/recordings made during the Nixon years of President Nixon and the Language he used in normal conversations was horrendous and would have offended many. I won't even touch on Bill Clinton's sexual activities as they may have even exceeded Kennedy but none of the Presidents of my lifetime or that I have ever read about came close to Obama who pretty much, if he is or was an American seemed to express hatred for our own Nation. The man totally disrespected the office in almost every way and I honestly think the man totally detested and abhorred our Constitution and would have eliminated it if he had a way of doing so.
