Some of it is undoubtedly funny. Him calling Streep underrated is not going to cause WWIII.
Actually all his attack Tweets be it at other nations or over comedy skits but especially public fights with intel, collectively paint him to the rest of the world as an ineffective leader. Not so much that other nations will see him as an easier mark, some will, but the climate of instability and fear can lead to real conflict. They all paint him collectively as unfit. He is not a left or right or economic issue, his on TV repeated pattern of attacks, either blaming others or pawning it off as a "joke" combined with his inability to understand Twitter is not the place for a politician to have public fights with intel or try to solve global diplomacy in 140 characters, all of it collectively adds up to an inept and dangerous individual who really has no clue what he is doing.
If it were only that Tweet, you could make that argument. Just like while Mitt's 47% comment got him in trouble briefly, it was not a repeated pattern. Trump not only makes stupid comments about actors and media, but everyone and not just on Twitter. It is a repeated behavior which is demonstrating how dangerous his lack of a filter as a politician is.
His act might be good for ratings on cable TV but he is not a TV show star now, this is real life and this is no game. That idiot really is treating all this as some game.
