Trump Reportedly Upset That He Isn't As Respected as Barack Obama, According to GOP Pundit

[riversedge]

I do think Trump knows how much Obama is respected and is just plain jealous of that respect.
But Trump has shown us that he will only get more cruel and ugly as time passes.

Trump Reportedly Upset That He Isn’t As Respected as Barack Obama, According to GOP Pundit

Literally everyone who isn’t part of Trump’s cult can see that Obama lives rent-free in the space of Donald Trump’s head where a brain might otherwise be. President Obama couldn’t even deliver a short and vague high school commencement address – one that didn’t mention Trump or anyone specifically – without Trump firing off all kinds of over-the-top criticism, and this comes at the end of a week where Trump has been tweeting “OBAMAGATE!” and calling for Obama to be imprisoned. We won’t even get into the fact that Trump got his start in politics by famously demanding to see Obama’s “long-form” birth certificate and alleging Obama was “Kenyan.”

Trump’s obvious inferiority complex and insane jealousy have people talking about what it is about Obama that drives Trump to such lengths.

............................

................

But I don’t think that’s the biggest thing. I think Mathew Miller – former Justice Department spokesperson – hit the biggest thing:

“There’s some racism there but, most of all, it’s driven by the fact that Obama has the thing that Trump has always craved but never achieved, and that’s respect. I’ve always thought that the respect that Barack Obama gets from people in this country and around the world is something that just eats Trump alive inside.”

[Wounded Bear]

1. Yeah, well I'm sure Trump is the only one who feels that way...

Well, he and his millions of sheeple.

[mercuryblues]

5. That's why this line is priceless

from the article

Literally everyone who isn’t part of Trump’s cult can see that Obama lives rent-free in the space of Donald Trump’s head where a brain might otherwise be.

[leftieNanner]

2. "Eats Trump alive inside."

I wish that were literal and not figurative...

[BComplex]

54. Ha! That was exactly what I was going to post before I decided to read the whole thread!

Great minds...and all that!

[Thomas Hurt]

3. must suck for a fascist like Trump to be politically cucked by a black man. lol

[DFW]

4. The scariest part is......

Trump doesn't appear to have the slightest clue as to why this is so.

[pandr32]

22. Yep

[mobeau69]

36. LOL. Yes, that's the hilarious part!

[lastlib]

45. or how to change it! NO CLUE!

that's gotta be tough on a "staybull jeenyus" to live with. It's just like Wile E. Coyote and the Roadrunner!

50. In defense of ..............Wile E. Coyote............

..His stupidity incompetence is just for laughs.. I met Wiley's creater/animator once..Chuck Jones..

...Wiley E. has a clue...but his obsession overtakes him over and over and over..
...also...Wiley comes up with some terrific plans to deal with Road Runner, & he tries them, but they always fail...he has fallen off of many cliffs. (& has got tens of millions of laughs)

....Trump is stupider because the whole deal of being the President..is not for laughs...
...Wiley is meant to be humorous....Trump is stupid and comes up with no plans..at least Wiley tries.
....Laughing at Trump because he totally selfish and ignorant......
....Wile is not ignorant, he comes up with great plans,,but they always fail..but most important, Wile comes back and tries again and again and again..

...Donald Trump doesn't give a damn enough to even try

[Danascot]

55. I think Wiley is heroic and tragic

creative and persistent

and the Roadrunner is kind of a dick.

[Stuart G]

57. The toons are named "Roadrunner"...They are all about Wiley and his obsession, creative and

persistent behavior. It isn't the roadrunner who is funny, it is poor Wiley..and that is why they made those toons that way. If you look them up, you will find that only 25 to 30 toons were made with Roadrunner &Wiley and those 25 have created an incredible following. (The original ones made in the 50s and early 60s)
...Now, I first saw them in the theaters on large screens. There was a theater near me, that had 25 cartoons for 25cents.. About 3 hours straight of toons. Most of the toons were Warner Bros toons because the theater had very close association or were owned by them...

...Yes...it was the mid and late 50s...and guess what?...it is no surprise...
......I always rooted for Wiley to catch the stupid dick of a Roadrunner..always..in the 50s on a large screen,,

...Chuck Jones made them and directed them..I met him once, and he said he made them very simple and easy to understand for one reason...They were very easy to make..He did this so he could make other very expensive toons way beyond budget..That is what he said. You would have to study cartoons, like I have to understand the ease at which those Roadrunner toons were made, as compared to others that Warner
Bros made..

...OK one last tidbit of information..Why did I study this?...One reason only..Those toons made me laugh and made me happy. That is it.!!! (oh, they still do)..Poor Wiley...He is my hero, he doesn't give up..

[Danascot]

59. Another Wiley fan!

Thanks for the info.

[gibraltar72]

6. Barack isn't the only one in his head.

He is afraid Michelle will be V.P. pick. If you noticed the other day he said Michelle loved Weinstein. He is deathly afraid of her also.

[dalton99a]

7. Trump deserves respect from no one.

[whistler162]

8. Respect begets respect

Donald, you ain't got no respect for anyone so that is what you get in return.

[Ohioboy]

9. What does Trump expect?

Respect has to be earned, not demanded. This is just more evidence that Trump is not fit to be president. He should know at least the basics of how respect works.

[A HERETIC I AM]

10. Know what would truly send Trumpy over the edge?

If Obama were to buy an NFL franchise.

That club of owners wouldn’t have Trumpy. At ALL.

But I bet if Obama had the money and the desire to actually buy a team, they would have no problem at all letting him in that little club.

[Blue Owl]

11. trump is unfamiliar with the term "earn"

n/t

[Cha]

12. Nasty Assface is his Own Worst Enemy.. he gets NO

respect 'cause he's a psychotic treasonous freaking asshole.

[mr_lebowski]

13. I find this theory to be a bit suspect ...

Primarily because I am not at all convinced that Trump would ever admit to himself that Obama is much more widely respected than he is.

Frankly I'm not sure his narcissistic man-child brain is even capable of processing a thought like that, let alone eventually reaching the inevitably correct conclusion about it's factual nature.

[Marie Marie]

39. Narcissists are insecure and constantly afraid that people will see through the facade.

[sop]

14. Forget Obama, Trump isn't as respected as, as...pretty much everyone else in the entire world,

including his heroes and role models: Putin, Kim Jong Un, Duterte, Bolsonaro and even Hitler.

[Newest Reality]

15. Gee...

It's simple:

Respect is earned. If you command or force people to give it to you, that's being a bully who confuses respect with fear.

Trump has not earned any respect from Americans who truly understand that and now, he is making worse for himself by ignoring that. A bully with a big mouth and obsession with himself, well, what's to respect there? Just having a title does not do the trick, that's just being a titular head and it is rather empty and meaningless without the corresponding behaviors and actions.

What, did he really believe that hanging a sign would make him seem reputable or confer the honors on him he does not at all deserve. Infamy is the legacy he is forging as he takes each desperate step down into the pit of perfidy. He will go down as the best of something ever, but it won't be related to his projections and boisterous facade.

[malaise]

16. Respect is earned

You can't buy that MoFo - fuck off!

Obama is a real man - fuck off you dumb fake

[paleotn]

24. Bingo.

[ProfessorGAC]

26. By 2016...

...there wasn't much PINO could buy with his own money. He hardly had any.

[Scarsdale]

37. tRump has brought this once great country

to its knees. Death, a pandemic, unemployment, food lines, desperate people. This is HIS fault. If he had read those daily Presidential reports, he would have seen the pandemic coming. If he had kept vital people in their assigned roles, we could have avoided a lot of the needless deaths. Respect? Not likely. Scorn and disgust is what he has earned.

[Jamastiene]

17. Poor Wittle Whiny Baby

Him's feewins are huht.

This should be spread far and wide. Biggest Snowflake of 'Em all...They really hate when you call them snowflakes back and really REALLY hate it when you call their Fuhrer the biggest snowflake of 'em all. Somehow, I know how to press all the right buttons to piss them off. Could that be why I have such a hard time living in Trump country? Aw, shucks. Oh well. Might as well keep going with it. I seem to have a skill. Honing it seems appropriate.

[Mr.Bill]

18. Trump will give the commencement address at West Point

to literally a captive audience who will be forced to be there.

Obama gave the commencement address yesterday to the entire rest of the country.

[Jamastiene]

19. And millions VOLUNTARILY watch Obama, even

if they were graduating and didn't have to watch him.

On the other hand, Trump has to capture cadets and trap them to speak to them.

[no_hypocrisy]

20. Reduced to Andy Griffith in "A Face In The Crowd".

[SeattleVet]

27. I hope we all live live enough to witness Needy Amin like that...

screaming from his cell in Leavenworth:

"Melania, don't leave me!!!! Melania, come back!!!"

[Maeve]

21. Respect is earned not grabbed

[0rganism]

46. and he bigly hates the word "earn" -- rhymes with "learn"

as it appears to be his life goal to never have anything to do with either one

[napi21]

23. I'm sure he was the topof the list of people who believed that a black man will NEVER be Prewsident

of the US! I wouldn't be surprised if that was one of the reasons he ran for the office. He was SOOO convinced people were going to love him so much more than that (N). After 3 1/2 years he sees the majority of the people are against him and he can't imagine why? He's pointed out all the problems he had because of that guy's failures, and people just don't see it. I'm sure he says to himself WHY? WHY? Why did so many people think that stupid commencement speech was good? It was just for high school kids!

He will never understand why people don't like him. Narcists never do.

WAIT until Biden beats his sorry butt in November.

My biggest fear is what disasters will he create between November & the January nomination?

[Jake Stern]

28. A narcissist frequently is baffled why folks don't like them

Have a cousin that way - total narcissistic dickhead who cannot fathom why he’s never invited to family functions.

He blames it on everyone being “jealous of his success”.

His “success”?

Apparently it is being a contractor that consistently nets 1 and 2 star reviews on Yelp and spends as much time in the courtroom as he does at the job site.

[Blue Owl]

25. Obama believed in teamwork

He is smart enough to know that you hire experts and trust their expertise.

Whereas Donny is dumb enough to think he can handle everything on his own. And look at the aftermath...

[Skittles]

29. NO SHIT

[Lonestarblue]

30. Trump knows the world hates him and loves Obama.

He’s the mean bully who just keeps on being a bully because that's all he knows, even though it doesn’t get him what he wants. I wish he would just hurry up and get a bad case of the virus. At least that might stop his irrational tweets for a bit.

[DENVERPOPS]

31. Cruel, Ugly, and SADISTIC....... N/C

[AllyCat]

32. Then he can just quit. He would be respected a thousandth of a percent more

[Lock him up.]

41. Exactly. He could then earn the respect of his fellow cellmates.

Even then, not really sure of that...

[Windy City Charlie]

33. Am I missing something?

What is up with Trump all of a sudden in the last week directing his attacks at Obama?

[Lock him up.]

43. I heard his campaign managers told him their inside polls show...

... he will lose by a landslide. Since then, he's gone even more batsh!t crazy paranoid.

[niyad]

48. One thing was the leaked tape referencing his "chaotic, disastrous response" to the pandemic.

I am only surprised that he did not stroke out then.

[George II]

34. Respect is EARNED.

[lunatica]

35. Envy

Just one of the other six deadly sins that Trump has.

[futureliveshere]

38. I disagree

It’s not just that Obama is very well respected. It’s because Obama is held in very high regard AND is a black man. It’s the combination that kills him. There are many other well respected presidents, some still alive but this is what gets Trumps goat. So racism And entitlement is very much the basis.

[Marie Marie]

40. Good. I hope this adds to his miserable existence.

[WhiskeyWulf]

42. I mean, he could try being respectable. nt

[Ellipsis]

44. He fucked another woman while his wife was pregnant.... and that's just for starters.

[niyad]

47. Tangerine toddler tyrant does not understand: he DEMANDS respect, but does not COMMAND

Respect.

[SergeStorms]

49. I respect the Office of the President.

I don't necessarily respect the person who happens to be president. I respected the hell out of Barack Obama as president, and I still respect him as a man. I have no respect for Donald Trump, either as president, or as a "man". Trump is an abject failure at everything he does.

[LastLiberal in PalmSprings]

51. President Obama also has something money can't buy -- class.

Watch some of the YouTube videos of the President dropping by neighborhood restaurants and greeting all the guests and every member of the staff. He asks each one their name and asks a question, "Where are you from?" "How long are you in town?" He saw a wedding party as he finished the 18th hole and walked over to congratulate the bride and groom, and talk to them. Once he got a letter from a teacher who lived in a town he was going to visit and made arrangements to drive to her house and visit with her and some friends for a half hour to discuss their concerns about education. He wrote a note to the teachers of a first grader: "Please excuse Bobby's absence. He was with me. -- Barack Obama"

And then there is this photo:

And a ride he gave to a woman who was speaking at an event where he was featured:

Like I said, you can't buy class.

[struggle4progress]

52. I sure hope he'll get the professional help he needs

[spanone]

53. ....and he's way too stupid to understand why

Eat on....

[Tarheel_Dem]

56. Most of us learned, and took to heart, the lesson that was imparted by our parents from an...

early age...."respect is earned". I can think of no time in Donald Trump's public life that is worthy of the respect he longs for. This is a man who created a foundation, funded by other people, to buy portraits of himself. What's to respect?

[Demovictory9]

58. Trump had a choice... low road or high road. He chose to dig through the ground to find lowest road
