This is a perfect example of the soft, feminine style of manipulation. Pure evil. She reminds me of Lilith.

Wait, what?

Whoah, you responded. I actually like you outside of this tweet, but it raised some alarm bells for me. I hope you understand how it can be seen, with all due respect. I know battle lines are being drawn, and I always viewed you as someone with integrity.

Whether you intended for it to come across as passive-aggressive and holier-than-thou or not, it doesn't suit you. A lot of people look up to you, including Trump voters. We see you as the Yin to Trump's Yang. That's why it stung so much.

Why did it sting? I honestly think the man has psychological issues & he is clearly furious about the election. He is removing key figures in our Defense establishment; Esper said today “He will replace me with a yes-man ...God help us.” I meant it when I said I’m praying for him

I respect that if you're sincere. He looks relaxed to me, as do his family and close associates, but maybe you have better information. Most of my friends agree with you so I understand it. Just concerned because if it isn't true, it can do a lot of damage coming from you.

Also, I don't know Trump personally, and I've heard mixed things, but he has so many followers for very legitimate reasons. I hope you take us into account and don't think we're all angry and unhinged. Many of us want to unite, just not this way.

In case I didn't fully answer your initial question, it stung because I have a lot of faith in you as a person to do more good in this world than 99.9% of the people on it. The tweet gave me a very different impression of you. Again, you may know more than me. I wish you success.
