A bully is never needed under any circumstance. It is people like you who inadvertently perpetuate bullying in schools. It is sickening.
BS.
WWII needed a bullys and we got them in the way of mac author, Esienhower and Lemay. without these bullies we would be under the flags of the axis powers.
like wise this bully/Trump has ended real threats to this nation, including China's economic hold on our trades as well as traditional military threats like North korea and the wars in the middle east.
Look at all the diplomacy we put into north korea for the last 75 years. what has it bought? more pain and suffering while escalating nuclear threat world round! Trump drew a line in the sand and knock the chip of off Kim's shoulder and is daring him to flinch..
Obama said to trump on inauguration day that North Korea would be his biggest challenge and is what as president haunted him the most/scared obama. By the time re-election comes around again trump will have made a read deal with north korea. something no other president has been able to do.Not because korea was ever a threat, but because of how he approaches and unstabilized china. before trump we needed chna for manufacturing and trade and china has been pulling our strings with high taxes tarriffs and setting global policies for us.
Trump the bully took all of that power away and now gets to set terms to china including what or how much they can support north korea before "we" collapse their economy.
That my blind douche is what a bully buys us from time to time.
Not that we need a heavy hand all the time, but we do need it now and in the foreseeable future.

That asshole bully attacks innocent people I know personally for no good fucking reason. I grew up with a street full of bullies who talked like he does. He isn't a "tough guy" he is simply an asshole bully. McCain and Kerry and Tammy Duckworth, and even Pete Buttigieg served, 45 did not. He cant even refrain from shitting on the service of others.Leader is the word you are looking for.
45 is simply a selfish narcissist and bully. He'd fit better as a politician for a closed state. He has no place in our western politics
to you people bully and strong leadership is the same. which is why I use them interchangeably. Now you've over step the definition of the word by adding tyrant. not all bullies are tyrants. Bullies for their will, in this case the will of trump like it or not is the will of the majority of the people. tyrants force their own wills despite what the majority of the people want.
don't pretend the two are the same.

I wish you could see what I do..
That the majority of this country are weak/small business owners who see trump as a rich guy looking to make it easier to step up and play on his level, giving people oppertunities they never had before. You are right in your assessment, but you under estimate how many of the people in this country are also defined by the words you carlessly slamed together trying to kick at his base. That base you are kicking at is the literal foundation of this country. without it we all fail or all work for wal-mazon (when all are one walmart amazon company that provides everything thing)
Um no, Trump's base has nothing to do with the founders.
Thomas Paine didn't right "The age of theocracy", and Jefferson wrote a letter to the Baptists talking about the necessity of a "wall" between church and state. And lets not forget "no religious test" in the Constitution's oath of office.
Trump's base wants a theocracy and religious pecking order. Jefferson, with everything he said railing against pulpit politics could not run on today's Republican ticket.
FYI Jefferson hated big banks. He got screwed by them and died in debt.
The GOP has since Reagan, allowed giant corporations to treat workers like pawns, not human beings.
