Can you elaborate? What does trump have to do with allowing early denial of bad ORs

  Reading between the lines a bit, but I think the point is that public ridicule and personal attacks as well a general lack professionalism is a page out of his book. So I think OP is trying to insinuate POTUS' behavior inspires a general lack of decorum, a la trickle-down dickonomics. Which is a sentiment I can't in good faith disagree with entirely, but it seems like a stretch in this case.

    is public ridiculing of somebody who intentionally submits garbage in order to potentially earn a few bucks a bad thing? it's like with patent trolls, dragging their shady actions to public and ridiculing them is best thing that can happen

      I get your point, but regardless of how justified it may seem, I find behaving that way just isn't nearly as effective as kindness. When I'm not being conscious, I tend to be pretty negative or sarcastic and even trend towards passive aggressive. I've found it to be rather damaging for a number of reasons. I find when I choose kindness, not only is it more effective at accomplishing my goals, but I am happier and I set a better example for those around me. I find the kinder I respond ESPECIALLY in situations where it feels undeserved, the more positive impact it has. To put it in more cliche terms, I want the world to be a kinder place, and I am trying to be the change I seek. So yeah, personally I think it's a bad thing. Ban em, sure. But why take it any further? And FWIW, I'm sure the "threat" of ridicule is more tongue in cheek than anything, I was just trying to elaborate on what I suspected the other commenter was intimating.
