Do you believe Trumps public words are dangerous to our country, or a legitimate show of power? (radical, Kerry)

What you mean to say is that now we have a leader who is easily triggered, and you think that is good.
I don't think for one second Trump is "triggered." I think that will be the consensus of people who want to misunderstand and underestimate him, but nobody has his business career without knowing who to be nice to, who to yell at, when to do either, etc.
I don't think he was triggered, angry or anything of the sort. I think he did what needed to be done and did so the way it needed to be done. You think in his entire life as a leader of numerous companies this is the first time someone played the "I am the alpha, not you" game with Donald Trump? Chances are about 99.99...% that he has put plenty of challengers to his alpha status in their proper place, and I guarantee many of them came at him with way more strength and power than anything Iran can come at the US with.
Trump is THE alpha. Period. That's what America elected. Yes, after 8 years of groveling beta mewling, alpha probably looks and sounds truly frightening, but it's just plain old alpha being alpha.
So Khameini ad Rouhani can powwow and see if they really feel like taking the beating that will come from making a legit challenge to US alpha. Until then, Trump's latest alpha bark is the final word on the subject.
Since Trump has been in office, he has said (tweeted) quite a lot. His most recent powerful tweet:
To Iranian President Rouhani: NEVER, EVER THREATEN THE UNITED STATES AGAIN OR YOU WILL SUFFER CONSEQUENCES THE LIKES OF WHICH FEW THROUGHOUT HISTORY HAVE EVER SUFFERED BEFORE. WE ARE NO LONGER A COUNTRY THAT WILL STAND FOR YOUR DEMENTED WORDS OF VIOLENCE & DEATH. BE CAUTIOUS!
Personally I am at odds by such a public show of power and authority. I have no problem Trump saying this to Rouhani personally, but out there for the world to see is a dangerous game to play in my opinion.
This is a rhetorical question, right?
Virtually everything that Trump does is a danger for our country, at least for the country we once knew and loved. He cares about only one thing - that his ego gets stroked continually, that his statements make it to the top of every newscast, that he creates chaos and division wherever he goes. In other words, that we are talking about HIM. He is the ultimate narcissist with billions of dollars and the power of the Presidency behind him and there are absolutely no limits to how far his sick mind will take him. Do not kid yourself this is a man that would (will) throw you under the bus in a heartbeat if it pleasured his bloated ego in some way.
I don't necessarily have a problem with Trump's tough words, however, his unwillingness to stand up to these evil leaders in face-to-face meetings negates any 'show of power'.
Basically, I'm seeing that Trump likes to tough talk over Twitter from the comfort and safety of his bedroom at the White House, but as soon as he meets these leaders in person, he wimps out.
True. That is what bullies do and he has had a lot of practice.
Trump usually tries to deflect and change the topic after a failure, which is in this case, was the humiliating summit with Putin. So he threatens another country IN ALL CAPS (which shows he's really, really, really mad!) and the news cycle jumps to that. There is something mentally wrong with him.

It's a real question, just focused on his most recent tweet. I don't trust that Trump is for me first, no way. I find him dangerous, and have since he took office. His Make America Great Again slogan is a marketing tag line.

Too funny dude. Trump has the emotional intelligence of a 19 year old in prison, he gets triggered emotionally almost daily. So why isn't Trump an alpha with Putin? Why has Trump settled on countless law suits if he puts people in "their proper place?" Nah, he gets played by others constantly. Even recently Kim Jon Un has made Trump his *****. Trump is just way too naïve, like a loud babe in the woods.
His latest triggered tirade will probably create 100 new terrorists. The USA as evil empire is not a good thing and now we get daily advertisement of it via Trump.
