    Bryan Cranston mocked Donald Trump on Tuesday after the president took credit for having no reported commercial aviation-related deaths in 2017.

    “Thank you @realDonaldTrump for preventing US commercial airlines from crashing in 2017. Your active participation monitoring the flight patterns and safety regulations was greatly appreciated. In 2018 could you please turn your efforts toward preventing wildfires and hurricanes?” the “Breaking Bad” actor sarcastically tweeted.

    Trump tweeted earlier Tuesday about the good news regarding the commercial aviation industry. He said that his “strict” regulations on commercial aviation has led to “zero deaths in 2017.”

    “The best and safest year on record!” he concluded.

    The president was most likely referring to the Aviation Safety network (ASN) report that said there were no airline passenger fatalities in the world in 2017, making it “the safest year in aviation history.”

    There were 10 deadly airline accidents that occurred last year, but they involved cargo planes and propeller-powered aircraft, according to the Wall Street Journal.

    Cranston, 61, previously spoke out against Trump critics who said they wanted the president to fail, telling them to “f--- off.”

    “President Trump is not the person who I wanted to be in that office, and I’ve been very open about that," Cranston said in an interview with The Hollywood Reporter in October. "That being said, he is the president.

    “If he fails, the country is in jeopardy. It would be egotistical for anyone to say, ‘I hope he fails,’” he added. [/quote]
    Bryan Cranston just criticized the president. It doesn't matter how legit his criticism is or is not. Anyone who criticizes Trump is a LIBERAL COWARD.

    Well, one BIGASS hit and a few minor hits..... they are re-running the entire BB on AMC as a 10th anniversary deal..... I'm finding the 2nd season was the slowest of them all.... When they introduced Gus Fring, that show went ballistic...

    P.S. It's Bryan....

    A lot of people have an opinion on this, and it's that Trump is full of **** because he's objectively wrong on the matter.

    Oh and,

    Truth is Truth. Trump takes credit for anything positive, never shares the limelight and always blames others for failures.

    https://www.psychologytoday.com/conditions/narcissistic-personality-disorder

    Narcissistic Personality Disorder
    Individuals with this disorder exhibit a lack of ability to empathize with others and an inflated sense of self-importance.

    Definition
    The hallmarks of Narcissistic Personality Disorder (NPD) are grandiosity, a lack of empathy for other people, and a need for admiration. People with this condition are frequently described as arrogant, self-centered, manipulative, and demanding. They may also concentrate on grandiose fantasies (e.g. their own success, beauty, brilliance) and may be convinced that they deserve special treatment. These characteristics typically begin in early adulthood and must be consistently evident in multiple contexts, such as at work and in relationships.

    People with narcissistic personality disorder believe they are superior or special, and often try to associate with other people they believe are unique or gifted in some way. This association enhances their self-esteem, which is typically quite fragile underneath the surface. Individuals with NPD seek excessive admiration and attention in order to know that others think highly of them. Individuals with narcissistic personality disorder have difficulty tolerating criticism or defeat, and may be left feeling humiliated or empty when they experience an "injury" in the form of criticism or rejection.

    Related Personality Disorders: Antisocial, Borderline, Histrionic, Paranoid.

    Symptoms
    Narcissistic personality disorder is indicated by five or more of the following symptoms:

    • Exaggerates own importance
    • Is preoccupied with fantasies of success, power, beauty, intelligence or ideal romance
    • Believes he or she is special and can only be understood by other special people or institutions
    • Requires constant attention and admiration from others
    • Has unreasonable expectations of favorable treatment
    • Takes advantage of others to reach his or her own goals
    • Disregards the feelings of others, lacks empathy
    • Is often envious of others or believes other people are envious of him or her
    • Shows arrogant behaviors and attitudes
    50 to 75 percent of the people diagnosed with narcissistic personality disorder are male. Additionally, it is common for many adolescents to display the characteristics listed above; this does not indicate that they will later develop narcissistic personality disorder.

    Causes
    Causes of narcissistic personality disorder are not yet well-understood. Genetic and biological factors as well as environment and early life experiences are all thought to play a role in the development of this condition.

    Breaking Bad is one of the greatest shows ever, and Walter White is one of the best characters ever. If you have never watched it, I highly recommend it.

    Errrgg...

    I like to have conversation about movies and tv shows and whatnot but I just don't give a crusty **** about the self-felating pageantry of a pack of vain celebutards who's "awards" are just an metric of who's ego was the largest and who's PR rep paid the highest.

    And the offshoot ones that focus on little special interest identities are even worse.

    They have as much right to speak as anyone else. The public, however, shouldn't give anymore credence to celebrities than anyone on this forum.
    That said, truth is truth. Trump's taking credit for aviation safety is just another of his many masturbatory tweets.

    Trump did it again, but that's what he does.

    And celebs have every right to speak - of course - but they invariably blow it when they do; not good for anyone, including their fans. :(

    They need to leave the punditry to the experts here on PF. :)

    It wasn't that long ago that Trump was a celeb giving his opinion on political matters.

    Doesn't count because of your opinion? Meh.

    He was objectively a celebrity for a LONG LONG time before he became President. Even, a dreaded evil hollywood celebrity.

    Heck no. Brian Cranston has written three books on political economy and campaign strategy.

    Not.

    Act like an actor, AH.

    Oy...

    Presidents are going to talk; they do that.

    He was a celebrity before he became president, and spoke, yes.

    I didn't comment on that pro or con; his prior celebrity is now irrelevant, eclipsed by his presidential celebrity.

    You seem to be assuming things I have not said.

    Hope that's clear. :)

    Do I prefer Bryan Cranston's antics over Trump's?
