Jan 14 – At 4:50 AM Trump scolds a fake talking icon from Chicago for all words and no action.  This fake hero came up with sour and unconstitutional remarks during interview.  Around 16:22 Trump follows up with invitation to help, or stand aside and watch.  Trump seemed  found a good formula to handle angry  – feels more like a loss -1.

Note: did you notice Trump most democratic approach to evaluate people?  His criteria is hard work and earnestly.  You can be an icon, or a hero, or a disabled person, or even a white angry mail.  In all cases he judges you only by your actions.  And if you open your mouth, you better be earnest.
