There was a letter to Adams from Jefferson, where Jefferson was responding to Adams complaining about BOTH the left and right media of their time, which would have been only newspapers, but Adams complained that society was not "respecting" either's politicians. Jefferson, in much more polite prose than I am about to sum up her basically said "What? Are you fucking nuts? Adams, we fought a war and basically gave the King a polite "fuck you" so that people could criticize us, even blaspheme us"
Now having said that, when in office NEITHER would have done what Trump did. And since day one Obama was called a tyrant and the worst he gave Trump was that video of the Lion King at the press dinner poking fun of Trump's Birther crap.
What Obama did not do is say "Trump you are an idiot" in the moment, even if he thought it, he wouldn't put it like that, because when you are in that position, YOU DONT TALK LIKE THAT.
And even Bush never did things like that. Nor did Bush's press secretaries. Nor has Obama's press secretaries. BECAUSE YOU SIMPLY DON'T DO THAT in office. Nor should ANY politician left or right, even running should do that. LEFT OR RIGHT.
It is about rolls and where you do things, Trump is damaging that concept which can erode the concept of peaceful transfer of power.This is more a lesson on civics, he is simply currently a lesson on what NO politician left or right should do. Non politicians are a completely different story and have far more leeway when it comes to language.
