"John Kerry Calls Trump An Insecure Teenage Girl Who Pays More Attention To Twitter Than His Job
John Kerry laid down a blistering attack against Donald Trump late Friday, attacking the president’s lack of maturity and inability to fulfill the responsibilities of the presidency.
... “He’s got the maturity of an eight-year-old boy with the insecurity of a teenage girl. That’s just who he is.”
... One of Trump’s latest Twitter targets is John Kerry.
The president attacked the Vietnam war hero ... accused him of committing a crime by meeting with the Iranians to improve U.S.-Iran relations while Trump destroys them.
... In his interview with Maher, Kerry shot back, saying, “The conversation I think [Trump] really ought to be worried about is Paul Manafort with Mueller.”
... Kerry said the Trump administration is clearly in political and legal chaos, and it appears that even those inside the White House are looking to bolt.
“It’s gone from the art of the deal to the art of the squeal,” Kerry said. “I’ve never seen anything quite like it: the anonymous op-ed, the Woodward book, the chronology of everything that’s been happening.”
Donald Trump shouldn’t be attacking a statesman like John Kerry; he should be taking notes from him."

It’s a simple but powerful idea: We are stronger together."
