{UAH} Supporter tells Trump to stop lying, bullying behavior

Folks;

It seems the president's uncontrollable misbehavior - of lying, avoiding meaningful questions, casting reporters as enemies of the people - is getting noticed by a different but critical audience: his supporters.

One of them did not hold back last evening during the Foxfest, that was marketed as Presidential Town Hall. It's refreshing to know that there are some fervent supporters of the president's out there, who can also call him out for his pathetic lies and petty attacks on the Media.

At a televised Fox News town hall held at the Lincoln Memorial in Washington, Donald Trump rejected a supporter's advice to rein in his bullying tendencies and begin answering the press's questions directly, instead blaming his belligerent style on the behaviour of a "hostile" media.

In a question played to Mr Trump on video, retired nurse and elementary school guidance counsellor Carolyn Perkins invited the president to reflect on whether the way he handles questions at his White House press briefings is either becoming of his office or politically wise.

"President Trump, my husband and I think you, your family and your staff for your great dedication to our country. We pray for you every day," Ms Perkins said.

"The question I have is about your manner of presentation. Why do you use descriptive words that could be classified as bullying, and why do you not directly answer the questions asked by the press, but instead speak of past successes and generally ramble?

"USA needs you! Please let go of those behaviours that are turning people away from you. Please hold on to your wonderful attributes that make you our great leader and let go of other characteristics that do not serve you."

Mr Trump responded: "I think I like that question! I'm not sure, but I think I like that question!"

Then, as if to prove Ms Perkins's point, he unfurled a long, rambling answer restating past successes and complaining of his victimisation at the hands of the media, whom he said treat him more unfairly than they have any president – even Abraham Lincoln.

"They come at me with questions that are disgraceful, to be honest, disgraceful. Their manner of presentation, and their words. And I feel that if I was kind to them, I'd be walked off the stage!"

It was unclear exactly whom Mr Trump thought he would be "walked off the stage" by, but he continued. "And yet, if you look in Florida today, we had hundreds and hundreds of boats going up and down the intercoastal, Trump, Trump — we have tremendous support. But the media is, they might as well be in the Democrat party. And why, I don't know."
