    Will Trump behave himself at the G20 summit?

    I'm not sure what to expect. I hope he's been briefed/cautioned to death what NOT to say. He'll probably want to be BFFs with Putin, but darn it, someone going with him will (hopefully) put a stop to it and ruin his fun.
    Seriously.........I don't think Trump has any idea what to say or to whom. Let's keep our collective fingers crossed that he doesn't embarrass the U.S. again.

    I think it is a foregone conclusion that he will embarrass you, regardless of what he utters or doesnt utter.

    Frankly, I think things are going just fine.

    You know, both of the previous comments show the huge divide there is. Even if I were 100% Republican (and I do have some Republican and some Democrat beliefs), I still wouldn't find Trump's behavior appropriate. And your comment IL, seems very curious to me. There's a matter of reasonable presidential behavior. Surely you can differentiate what is fairly decent/reasonable behavior from that which is not. I'm rather irritated by your comment. Why do you need to be so rude?

    CathyA.......were you as offended by President Clinton as you are Trump? Keeping in mind that receiving oral sex and ejaculating on the dress of a Whitehouse Intern while in the Oval Office is hardly.....Presidential. So the bar has already been set quite high...wouldn't you agree?

    OF COURSE I thought that was totally inappropriate!! But you just can't compare the 2 of them. Trump knows very little about anything political. He's self-centered and defiant. I could go on and on with adjectives. He's totally immature.
    Clinton did a lot of good things, in spite of his total lapse of judgment with Lewinsky.......but there's still no comparison whatsoever between these 2 presidents.

    I believe Clinton was inappropriate with one woman...not Presidential but Trump is offensive to ALL woman! Therein, lies the difference!

    Juanita Broaddrick, Paula Jones, Kathleen Wiley and Kathy Shelton ....that makes five but who's counting? Look, I agree....you have the right to choose who you are offended by but to say there's much of a difference is a stretch.

    "Offensive to all women" is hyperbole. I know plenty of women for whom he is not "offensive," and I think you mean this as he is sexist. You dont get to speak for all women.
