If one speaks from the ‘bully pulpit’ , one has to be careful about speech! Few parents would want a child to emulate Trump’s name-calling and snide remarks. Where is the First Lady and her campaign against bullying?

"Two kindergartners in Utah told a Latino boy that President Trump would send him back to Mexico, and teenagers in Maine sneered “Ban Muslims” at a classmate wearing a hijab. In Tennessee, a group of middle-schoolers linked arms, imitating the president’s proposed border wall as they refused to let nonwhite students pass. In Ohio, another group of middle-schoolers surrounded a mixed-race sixth-grader and, as she confided to her mother, told the girl: “This is Trump country.”

Since Trump’s rise to the nation’s highest office, his inflammatory language — often condemned as racist and xenophobic — has seeped into schools across America. Many bullies now target other children differently than they used to, with kids as young as 6 mimicking the president’s insults and the cruel way he delivers them."

This is terrible, and the logical next step.

Germany in the 30s.
 
The kindergarten children are mimicking something gotten from someone else. They’re victims too.
 
Ooooo, a Trump/Hitler allusion…how thought provoking, and original…
No, alas, not original.



 
Especially since she chose bullying and internet bullying as her advocacy.

“Be (the) best”
 
That kind of hyperbole and nonsense is why no one takes actual criticism of trump seriously.
President Donald Trump appeared Thursday to link his administration’s policies toward New York to a demand that the state drop investigations and lawsuits related to his administration as well as his personal business and finances.

Hours before New York Gov. Andrew Cuomo was set to meet the president at the White House, Trump tweeted that Cuomo “must understand” that National Security far exceeds politics,” a reference to his administration’s recent decision to halt New York’s access to the Global Entry and other “trusted traveler” programs that allow New Yorkers faster border crossings and shorter airport lines.

 
Melania is silent on it, too
Prove it.

How do you know she has not said something to him ?

Are you demanding she do something no first lady has ever done ? Criticize her husband publicly ?

What about Clinton and his adultery ? Not a good example for youngsters, but Hilary didn’t criticize him in public.

Not good to see and neither is the sodomite culture liberals are trying to force into our classrooms.

The race card lost it’s point after Obama was elected twice. I know quite a few Republicans that voted for him.

She has a public program. Has she called him out on his bullying nastiness? Not that anyone has heard.

I claim she has been silent. It is up to you to show where this is inaccurate.

We are on Trump and his rhetoric now, folks. Please don’t bring up irrelevancies as to others. If you want to talk about other president’s statements, fine.

Sure. And the EEOC went out of business due to lack of complaints about discrimination, right? (Racial discrimination is 60% of its caseload.)

President Trump sets many good examples.
Cite 5. His personal history? His depth of learning? His history of activism for the less fortunate?

Sorry, Trump does not set many good examples. The question was if his rhetoric set a bad example. It does.

If you’d like to see what Hilary has had to said there’s a documentary for you.

From what I’ve seen she hasn’t had many public statements in general since getting criticized for that speech that had some overlap with a speech that Michelle Obama delivered. There have been some statements that have been put out by someone that is said to be speaking on her behalf.
 
In the meantime, Bernie calls the leader of Israel a racist on national TV, our biggest ally over there.

Good luck calling Bernie a bully.

The media has tried to bully Trump into being a certain way, Democrats try to bully people, using the race card all the time.

Have a thought or two on immigration, well, you may be racist if you don’t want to let everyone in.

And bringing up the Washington Post or New York Times is totally empty, haven’t they been calling Trump the worse of names since before the election? I do believe so.

Well, well, what do we have here, 2015:

So, Wapo is being hypocritical, the left bullies calling people names. Trump stands up to it.

And I don’t care if it is editorials, it’s a big headline. The left gave up civil discourse long ago.

The Russia matter is another thing, some say nothing to it but the left engaged in a smear, they may be smearing Bernie Sanders too, with the same.

Don’t tell me who bullies by name-calling, more hypocrisy from Wa Po.

He got impeached and it registered zero with Trump voters. Even Republican senators recognised he did wrong. Then went out firing decorated truth tellers and his uninvolved brother. And others. For telling truth
 
If you want to focus on hyperbole to ignore the real, the base is unreachable
