You appear to have a chip on your shoulder about anybody who calls out this President for his shortcomings.
Don't be silly... I have no issue with people who differ in politics or opinions... But your vitriol directed at supporters of Trump, as well as the man himself, required a response...

I actually support a couple of things he has implemented like confronting the Chinese C*******ts, (even though he has used a sledgehammer to open a peanut,) but the rest of his performance is shambolic and I am borrowing that description from Steve Schmidt, a GOP strategist.
There are several areas where I believe he would have been better advised to be more subtle... There are other areas where he has been stellar...
Could list some opinions by GOPers that support this...But nowadays one can find an expert to support just about any opinion....

Trump was recorded on tape boasting of grabbing women “by the pussy.” Absent an invitation to do so means he is confessing to criminal sexual assault. If some loudmouth overweight woman boasted about grabbing you by the balls you would not feel violated or diminished?
See...Here is where I begin to think you might be being less than honest....
He was heard on tape boasting about how "women allow rich men to grab their pussies"... Crude? yes.... Boorish? Yes.. His finest moment? no... Confessing to criminal assault? please...
And it was a private conversation...Recorded with neither his knowledge, nor his permission...
I was assaulted when I was a teenager... By a huge Indian woman... Was lucky that it resulted in only a fondling of my fun bits...
Did I feel violated? A little...
Diminished? How?
My mother was a barmaid for thirty years... When a jackass grapes your pussy you smack him upside the head...Maybe knee him in the balls for good measure...

I was for some years a crisis counselor and an anger management facilitator and I not going to apologize for using that experience to assess the defensive vitriol that pours out of this President’s mouth. Blaming, minimizing, denying is on daily display. Nothing is ever his fault is it?
Neither job would enable you to assess someone who you have never met in person...
Defensive vitriol...I like that term... And agree with it... But I also think it is necessary to a certain extent.... As shown by your assessment of his "pussy grabbing" comment, there are many out there who are happy to twist/spin his words in order to slander him...
I have seen him take responsibility for his actions... I have also seen him deflect.... You're correct that he does not like to admit to fault...

Many people, including myself, viewed his unlikely e******n with an open mind and waited to see what he could do to pull the country together. We got to witness the spectacle of him screwing his own pooch and doing everything in his power to further divide
an already divided society.
Laying the blame for division solely on Trump is dishonest.. There are plenty of others who share in it... I have followed some of the Democratic Primaries... Lots of h**e there...
And I recall where the "Deploracus" in my moniker came from...

And now what....Ukrainegate? This will not end well.
Have you read the transcript?
I think Ukrainegate will be another Russiagate...
In any case, my apologies if I came on too strong earlier... In have always enjoyed your posts... And hope that we can continue to converse amicably in the future...
Stay strong and play nice
