Laurence Tribe doesn't mince words in his description of Trump:

[kpete]

Pathetic, porcine, stupid, sinister, obscene, obese, cruel, corrupt, deceitful, dictatorial, evasive, evil: who among us would’ve imagined that the person all those adjectives would simultaneously bring to mind for half the earth’s population would be the U.S. president?

[Hermit-The-Prog]

1. and there are a lot more left out

Narcissistic, greedy, uncaring -- in short, Republican.

[Arkansas Granny]

10. He only had 280 characters. 😏

[Hermit-The-Prog]

13. lol

I forgot that.


You could throw a thesaurus at the orange menace and still not cover all his bad characteristics.

[calimary]

47. There's also willfully ignorant.

And more! But you’d have to start a new tweet.

[hlthe2b]

2. Intelligence is incredibly attractive and Tribe has it in spades. Can we clone him?

[pnwmom]

3. Traitorous. Authoritarian. Despot.

[vlyons]

4. He left out

vulgar, vile, degenerate, immoral, pathetic, cowardly, corrupt, criminal, treasonous

[dalton99a]

5. Well, he produces carbon dioxide and methane

There is not one good thing that can be said about the asshole

[ooky]

6. All you got to do is google it

and the search algorithm will return "Donald Trump".

[SammyWinstonJack]

7. Thinskinned, petty, vindictive, vile, vengeful....

[walkingman]

8. Liar, mentally challenged, and just disgusting

[jalan48]

9. Porcine, pig like, has a great ring to it. Porcine Trump is perfect.

[leftieNanner]

19. Except pigs are much smarter and sweeter

Although his physique is porcine for sure.

[jalan48]

21. You are right. My apologies to pigs..

[Scruffy1]

43. Ditto.

I actually like pigs.

[katmondoo]

45. Love that word for Trump "porcine"

[katmondoo]

48. Love and thanks for the hearts ,to whomever gave them

[world wide wally]

11. And the Evengelicals would make him Pope if they could.

[Paladin]

12. Well said, Professor Tribe. (nt)

[smirkymonkey]

14. Some choice adjectives there. All are spot on.

I don't think there is one negative descriptor of an individual's character that DT does NOT embody. He is the most despicable man on the planet.

[Wawannabe]

15. Tribe

Nails that fucker! To. The. WALL!
Pun intended

[OxQQme]

16. Adding to the list -- lost.

Wandering around in the dark side with an outdated map.
Too prideful to stop at a gas station to ask directions.

All the previous descriptors also fit.

It's one thing to describe an evil.
The "Seven Deadly Sins" are in full view.
It is being televised.

[htuttle]

17. Weak, scared, liar, loser

SAD.

[Pepsidog]

18. He is all that and more but you know who is worse? McConnel is even all that and some.

[Evolve Dammit]

20. And those are his good points!

The truly sickening aspect is that by virtue of "elected office", he wields extreme executive power that must be checked or we are not going to be able to restore credibility on the national and world stage.

[Ferrets are Cool]

22. I couldn't have said it better. nt

[sandensea]

23. Plus George Will's favorite:

Oleaginous.

He - and most of his family and associates - are slick bastards.

[treestar]

24. An A to Z could be created!

Assholish
Barbaric
Corrupt
Dictatorial
Evil
Fuckwad
Greedy
Hellish
Idiotic
Juvenile

[kimbutgar]

26. Kinky, Ludricious, Malicious, narcissist, Outrageous, petty,

[treestar]

27. Querulous,

Ridiculous
Sleezy
Traitorous

[Liberty Belle]

28. Unscrupulous, Vile, Wicked, Xenophobic

[kimbutgar]

32. Oooh I like Querulous

Good one!

[kimbutgar]

25. So True. Laurence is a man of truth and wisdom.

[Mme. Defarge]

29. Depraved,

demonic.

[CaptYossarian]

30. And, thanks to Propecia--Flaccid.

[3catwoman3]

31. Two more -

- vicious

- ultracrepidarian - noting or pertaining to a person who criticizes, judges, or gives advice outside the area of hid/her expertise

[kimbutgar]

33. Wicked, yellow and zenophobic

[zentrum]

34. Well, he's got that right but.....

Unfortunately in the past Tribe has argued for Corporate Personhood (the basis of Citizen's United) and also sued the Environmental Protection Agency when some industry said EPA rules were unconsitutional.

So I see him as part of the deeper system that created Trump.

[BlancheSplanchnik]

42. Well! That certainly colors my impression of Tribe.

I didn’t know that.
But still, he’s got dump described to a T.

[Dem2theMax]

35. I am going to take this moment in time to applaud everyone

on this thread! Outstanding!



And a little laughter too.

[Capt. America]

36. Don't forget that Shrub could also be called all of those but porcine.

[NNadir]

37. I wish he would tell us how he really feels. He seems to be holding back. n/t

[Blue Owl]

38. Odious

n/t

[krkaufman]

39. "Trump"

“Trump” in the thread subject kinda stepped-on Tribe’s message.

[First Speaker]

40. Only half...?

[cannabis_flower]

41. Good, but only one correction, maybe..

Isn't porcine and obese the same thing? Maybe just a little redundant.

[Firestorm49]

44. Amen!

[47of74]

46. I have less family friendly ones
