If you thought Donald Trump mightve set himself a new years resolution to give up tweeting, you should probably think again.
The president already got back on the Twitter machine this morning, and in his first tweets of 2018, he suggested that he might cut aid to Pakistan because they provide safe haven to terrorists while giving America nothing but lies & deceit.

Trump followed up by voicing support once again for the anti-government protests taking place in Iran. The president previously remarked that the Iranian people are frustrated with their governments support for terrorism, and now, Trump has turned his attention to the Obama nuclear deal and the fact that the demonstrations are a rebuke to the nations suppressive policies.

2018 already looks like its off to an interesting start.

Update:
Pakistan fires back at Trump: US has given nothing but invective & mistrust'
BY BRANDON CARTER - 01/01/18 12:05 PM EST
Pakistan fired back at President Trump on Monday, saying the U.S. has given it nothing but invective and mistrust after Trump lashed out at the country and threatened to withhold aid in an early morning tweet.
[Pakistan] as anti-terror ally has given free to US: land & air communication, military bases & intel cooperation that decimated Al-Qaeda over last 16yrs, but they have given us nothing but invective & mistrust, Pakistans defense minister, Khurram Dastgir-Khan, said on Twitter.
They overlook cross-border safe havens of terrorists who murder Pakistanis, he added.

(9,426 posts)YES, start right here in the US of A. Has ir really only been one year since this idiot took over? Incidentally, how much have we given to Israel, and what did we get in return? How much did Russia give tRump, and he got the entire USA in return!!

(8,600 posts)They actually espouse a discernable policy position. It's not an attractive or desirable position, but it is a position nonetheless. This looks more like a shiny object meant to outrage the reasonable, thrill the base, and rattle the world. Time to look around and see what might need some attention.

(9,426 posts)Beavis or Butthead writing those. Maybe Lindsey Graham, he is itching for a war. Nunes, to take the spotlight off Russia and his partnership with a Russian vineyard in California??

Orders from the top and a gang of writers to clean it up.

(45,540 posts)He definitely knows about lies and deceit, leaders as fools, and giving little help to the people it was promised to.
How many countries does he want to go to war with?

(2,226 posts)And how many have nukes? Pakistan NN China Russia. Trump is doing a good job at pissing the world off.

Irish_Dem
(47,453 posts)Don't need a formal eval when we see his behavior every day.
And hear about his behavior inside the WH.
A formal eval is just a shortcut to a comprehensive picture of a person.
The best test is the individual's functioning in the real world.
And you could probably give just as good an opinion as the experts at this point.
We all could.

And something that might explain his impulse control problem.

(9,426 posts)a health report this month. If it is from Dr. Bornstein, we will know it is 100% correct, since Donnie Two Scoops only hires the best. Remember, Dr. Bornstein stated that Donnie will be the "most physically fit president ever to take office" We see how fit he is, rolls of fat plus MOOBS bigger than Maleria's. While other leaders walk up a hill, he rides a golf cart,, unless it was stuck to his fat arse, and couldn't be pried loose?

And yes, I think he is being managed by staff and attorneys.

It is said that he is violent with people, so perhaps they are
using something stronger to help with this.

(7,403 posts)All Trump Tweets are directed at his base. He is telling them what he thinks they want to hear - and they are eating it up.
Think, what would Trump do if, say, Iranian protestors started to cross the border into neighboring nations. Would Trump welcome them as immigrants with open arms? That tells you all you need to know regarding who these Tweets are directed at. The fear is that a few thousand may do just that - then what? That these Tweets are stupid is an understatement as words have consequences - some of which are not pretty.
