People cite these old tweets trying to say he's a hypocrite, but I honestly don't think it's even that deep. A hypocrite presupposes a belief system for one to fail to consistently follow. I think Trump just shoots from the hip and says whatever he thinks will get him the most attention, power, or status at the moment. There is no belief system or set of values for him to be a hypocrite about.
- klyrs 6y ago> hy·poc·ri·sy (noun) the practice of claiming to have moral standards or beliefs to which one's own behavior does not conform; pretense. Just because his professed morals are ephemeral doesn't mean he isn't a hypocrite. It's just that he's also a sociopath. But hey, remember that time John Kerry was skewered for being a "flip-flopper"? Sounds like his political opponents should hate trump.
