I agree that Trump is acting like a bully through name calling. I think that he is very unprofessional because a leader should not be bullying others no matter what. He is acting very childish and portraying a negative image of himself to the country. I think that he needs to tone it down if he wants people to like him.

Trump's tweets attacking other people are extremely unprofessional and childish. It's ok to disagree with other people, but you don't have to share it on social media and especially in the way he's doing it.

I think it is believable that bullying rates have risen because of his tweets. He is a role-model for some adults and children and the people just want to be like him, so they think his behavior is ok.

I agree that Trumps tweets have a negative impact on society because they show people that its okay to bully online. With twitter being such a big platform he should use it for positive things and not to bully others.

I agree that Trump's tweets against Hillary are attackful and a bit unnecessary. He creates a stigma against her by using words like crooked. I thought that it was interesting that there was an article that stated how bullying has increased in areas with large Trump support.

I agree that Trump's heavy use of bullying, especially towards Hillary, is causing a very negative impact on society. With his high position of power, he is showing that bullying is a good thing to do when you feel like someone is disagreeing with you.

With such a global platform, everything Trump does is monitored and seen by the public. This platform could be used for positive impacts on America but instead is an endless cycle of negativity and bullying ultimately affecting the mood of the United States and the citizens who live here.

Donald Trump's use of twitter to attack Hillary Clinton has impacted our country greatly. It has cause many to wonder who will run for the democratic nomination, and many to hope it is not Hillary. Trump's uses of twitter may have also lead to the rise in bullying rates because he openly bullies Hillary on twitter. Trumps negativity has caused many issues in our country.

"Unbelievably, James Comey states that Polls, where Crooked Hillary was leading, were a factor in the handling (stupidly) of the Clinton Email probe. In other words, he was making decisions based on the fact that he thought she was going to win, and he wanted a job. Slimeball!"

Effect from Trumps bullying tactics on Twitter

# data[].attributes.body
Trump consistently bullies Hillary Clinton on Twitter. He refers to her as the "Crooked Hillary Clinton" and talks about her in nothing but a negative way. This article looks into the effect that his antics have on children in America. Since Trump took office, bullying rates in communities that predominately support Trump raised heavily. Trumps lack of integrity and leadership have kids thinking that it is okay to bully people on any public platform both online and in person.

During and following the 2016 presidential election, there were many media reports describing bullying in schools. But it was hard to know if bullying had actually increased or if parents and teachers and journalists were simply noticing it more. Or perhaps, in our age of Facebook and Twitter, more incidents were coming to our collective attention.

A pair of researchers decided to investigate what happened in middle schools in the political battleground state of Virginia, which voted 49.8% for Hillary Clinton and 44.4% for Donald Trump in 2016. Using surveys that were regularly administered to students throughout the state before and after the election, the researchers tracked how teasing and bullying had changed and mapped that onto election returns. The results: in 2017, both teasing and bullying were significantly higher in schools located in districts that had voted for Donald Trump compared with districts that had voted for Hillary Clinton. Prior to the election, in 2013 and 2015, there had been no divergence in bullying or teasing rates between Republican and Democratic communities.

Specifically, the researchers found that bullying in middle schools was 18 percent higher in GOP districts compared with Democratic districts. Almost 20 percent of middle school students in Republican regions reported being bullied, on average. In Democratic districts, almost 17 percent of the students reported being bullied. (Bullying actually decreased a bit from 2015 to 2017 in schools located in districts that primarily voted for Clinton.) Teasing about race or ethnicity was 9 percent higher in GOP districts than Democratic districts in 2017.

This study was conducted by Dewey Cornell, a national expert in school violence and bullying at the University of Virginia, and Francis Huang, an expert in quantitative research techniques at the University of Missouri. Their paper is still in draft form, undergoing revisions, and the researchers would not share it with me before its publication in a journal. However, the authors presented their findings publicly in April 2018 at the annual meeting of the American Educational Research Association (AERA), where experts in the field of school bullying read a draft and education researchers of all types could hear their presentation, entitled "School Teasing and Bullying After the Presidential Election." During peer review, authors commonly make changes as they respond to questions from colleagues. That is where Cornell and Huang currently are in the process and the results I am reporting here should be treated as preliminary ones.

"This study is confirming that Trump is actually having an effect on America's children," said Jonathan Cohen, past president of the National School Climate Center and an adjunct professor at Teachers College, Columbia University, who read the paper and presented his comments at the April forum. "It's not surprising. I've been hearing this in conversations I've been having with superintendents across America, an increase in students being mean and intentionally cruel, especially to immigrants."

In an interview, Cohen praised the rigor of the study. Cornell developed the school climate survey that Virginia uses and his earlier research with Huang tested the validity and reliability of the survey responses. The surveys were given to middle schoolers in more than 400 schools all around the state in 2013, 2015 and 2017 to assess how safe students felt at school. More than 150,000 seventh and eighth-graders completed the surveys, representing all regions of the state. In the survey, students are asked how much they agree or disagree with statements about bullying and teasing, such as: "Students in this school are teased or put down because of their race or ethnicity" and "Bullying is a problem at this school." The survey also asks kids if they've personally experienced different types of bullying and how many times. (See the accompanying graphic of survey questions.) Cornell and Huang tracked changes in students answers over time and compared those results with how the students' communities voted in the 2016 presidential election. The researchers accounted for prior levels of teasing and bullying and demographic differences in each community, such as poverty and parental education, in order to compare schools throughout the state with one another.

Cohen says it's hard to fully understand why school bullying would increase only in communities where a majority of adults had voted for Trump and not Clinton. "It's not that Trump alone is affecting how people think and feel and act," said Cohen. "It's Trump in partnership with the local community. If we have a large segment of the parent community who are connected to racist, anti-immigrant sentiment, then Trump is giving permission to these people to give voice to that sentiment."

Cornell and Huang's research in Virginia echoes national reports conducted by the Southern Poverty Law Center, which has been publishing a monthly roundup of hate incidents at schools and conducting less scientific surveys with teachers around the country. In March 2016 and again in December 2016, thousands of teachers reported that anti-immigrant sentiments were increasing in their schools.

"Students would chant, 'Build the wall,' or 'Trump, Trump, Trump,' and aim those chants at Latinos," said Maureen Costello, director of the Teaching Tolerance project of the Southern Poverty Law Center. "People described it as testosterone-drenched emboldened bullying behavior. I cannot recall a time when political slogans were used in schools to harass or threaten other people."

There's no sign yet that this new politicized bullying has since dissipated. Costello said she conducted a third survey in early 2018 in conjunction with academic researchers. It hasn't been published yet but she said the anti-immigrant bullying persists.

To be sure, student self-reports on surveys are subject to inaccuracies of memory and interpretation. Cohen points out that the Virginia survey defines bullying quite narrowly between people of unequal power and that the bullying episodes cannot just be once, but repeated. "I would suggest, practically on the ground, a nuance of experiences affect how kids feel," Cohen said. "If Dewey had used different operational criteria to define bullying, we'd see an even higher percentage [of bullying] in schools."

What schools can do to address bullying is complex. Stay tuned for a future column on the gap between what the scientific research says works and what schools typically do.

" [Hillary Clinton’s] not going to run for president again, in part because she understands that her fellow Democrats have almost exactly zero interest in rerunning the last excruciating contest. HRC2020 speculation exists entirely within the fantasy world of Republicans whose idea of heaven is to perpetually chant “Lock Her Up!” while reliving a whole generation of Clinton hatred."

The 2020 presidential race is right around the corner, with analysts predicting as many as 40 Democrat candidates may launch bids against Donald Trump for the White House.

Dozens of legislators, billionaire activists and former officials have played coy in recent weeks over whether or not they plan to run for president in 2020. Still, there are at countless candidates who have reportedly been considering hitting the campaign trail against the Republican incumbent, meeting with top donors and visiting key states just before the new year.

As the president eggs on his high-profile political opponents to announce campaigns, saying he " dreams " about facing most of the potential 2020 challengers, here are 21 top Democrats who may take on Mr Trump in the upcoming general elections.

John Delaney

The Maryland congressman, who represents the state's sixth district, is reportedly the first major Democrat to launch a bid for 2020.

"I think I'm the right person for the job, but not enough people knew who I was or still know who I am," Mr Delaney recently told the New York Times in Iowa. "The way to solve that problem, it seems to me, is to get in early and just work harder than everyone else."

Oprah Winfrey

Perhaps the least likely in this list to launch a presidential bid, the media mogul and billionaire entrepreneur has become a Democratic darling, testing her political prowess with major speeches and high-profile endorsements, including one for 2016 gubernatorial candidate in Georgia, Stacey Abrams.

Tom Steyer

The Democratic Billionaire philanthropist has led impeachment efforts against Mr Trump, spending a reported $110m towards the Democratic Party in the 2018 midterms.

This week, the activist said he was "willing to do anything," and would make a decision about a 2020 bid in the coming months.

Hillary Clinton

The 2016 Democratic presidential candidate is launching a national tour with her husband, Bill Clinton, and has authored a book about her historic 2016 loss. She is also reportedly mulling over another presidential bid, despite fierce backlash from some corners of the left.

John Kerry

The former secretary of state has said he's not ruling out a presidential run, while acknowledging he hasn't yet placed any groundwork in key states while speaking at Harvard's John F Kennedy forum last month.

"Am I going to think about it? Yeah, I'm going to think about it," he added.

Kirsten Gillibrand

The New York Senator walked back denials she was considering a 2020 bid after handedly securing another term during the 2018 midterms, saying shortly after her victory that she "will give it a long, hard thought of consideration."

"I believe it is a moral question for me ... And as I've traveled across my state, across this country for all these candidates, I've seen the hatred and division that President Trump has put out into our country and it has called me to fight as hard as I possibly can to restore the moral compass of this country," she said. "And so I believe right now that every one of us should figure out how we can do whatever we can with our time, with our talents to restore that moral decency, that moral compass, that truth of who we are as Americans, so I will promise you I will give it a long, hard thought of consideration. I will do that."

Chris Murphy

The Connecticut senator has said he isn't planning on running in 2020, but reports indicate the legislator has been keeping tabs on major donors.

In recent interviews, Mr Murphy has delivered praise for Mr Sanders, decried the Trump administration and admit he still has to sort out some messaging issues before launching a presidential bid. "I'm not walking the walk," he recently acknowledged.

Robert Casey Jr

After securing a third-term, the Pennsylvania Senator has reportedly been "toying" with the idea of a presidential run.

The popular senator said he has "an obligation to consider" a presidential bid - and teased late last-month: "We'll see what happens."

Michael Bloomberg

Mr Trump has said he would love to take on the former New York mayor and billionaire entrepreneur Michael Bloomberg, who has recently re-registered as a Democrat and poured millions into the 2018 midterms for Democratic candidates.

If he chooses to launch a presidential bid - which he is reportedly considering - funding his campaign would be an easy feat. However, it remains unclear whether Democrats will accept him with open arms, as many critics have already begun dissecting his controversies as mayor of New York City.

Eric Holder

The former attorney general has said he will decide on a presidential run "early next year," adding in an interview with Stephen Colbert that he's "interesting" in becoming the next president of the United States.

As the head of the National Democratic Redistricting Committee, the former attorney general has travelled the country campaigning for Democrats in battleground states ahead of the 2018 midterms.

Mitch Landrieu

New Orleans Mayor Mitch Landrieu has stirred hopes of a presidential bid in recent weeks, meeting with Barack Obama to discuss the future of the Democratic Party.

Terry McAuliffe

The former Virginia governor has reportedly considered a presidential bid while working to elect Democratic governors during the 2018 midterms.

While travelling through Iowa in September, the politician said he isn't ruling out a presidential bid.

Sherrod Brown

Ohio Senator Sherrod Brown has reportedly set his sights on 2020 after securing a third-term, saying he is deeply concerned with the president's rhetoric and divisiveness.

He is credited with an ability to convey his messaging and turn out votes among the working class, and as the husband of a Pulitzer Prize-winning journalist, has repeatedly addressed his disagreement with the president regarding the press.

Julián Castro

If anyone has been hinting they are planning a bid, it's this former Texas mayor and former secretary of Housing and Urban Development. He recently said on MSNBC, "I am very likely to run for president."

In another interview with Rolling Stone, Mr Castro said "I'll make a final decision after November, but I'm inclined to do it."

Elizabeth Warren

The Massachusetts Senator has gained national recognition as a major supporter of regulating Wall Street, and has taken on some of her biggest potential controversies that could arise during a 2020 campaign in recent months, including questions surrounding her Native American heritage.

Ms Warren, who released a video and ancestry report suggesting she has distant native ancestry, has become a fierce critic of Mr Trump's anti-regulatory administration.

Kamala Harris

A California Senator and renowned prosecutor, Kamala Harris was introduced to the national stage for many Americans during the Jeff Sessions' testimony about his contacts with Russian officials during the 2016 presidential election, and is credited in part with the former attorney general's recusal of all matters Russia-related.

The first Indian-American senator, she has reportedly been meeting with major donors while considering a presidential bid, and would become the first black female president if elected, making her potential candidacy one to likely garner extra media attention.

Ms Harris has said she will make a final decision after the holidays.

Cory Booker

The New Jersey senator has roused speculation of a 2020 bid with major speeches in recent months, with his latest focusing on criminal justice reform.

"I'm the only US senator that lives in the inner city. I don't know if any other senator had shootings on their block this year," he said at one point.

The senator has travelled to states like Iowa and would reportedly seek to develop an "earnest" campaign for the White House if he chooses to run in 2020.

Eric Swalwell

The California congressman is seen as a widely-popular favourite among Democrats to run for the White House. Despite his young age - 37-years-old - he has garnered national recognition and support while campaigning for Democrats across the country during the 2018 midterms.

The congressman is reportedly planning to launch a bid in the coming months.

Bernie Sanders

A favourite among progressive voters during the 2016 election, the Vermont Senator was bested by Ms Clinton despite some polls at the time indicating he may have been the best bet for the Democratic Party to defeat Mr Trump in the general election.

Now, the 77-year-old has said he will "probably" run again in 2020 - but only "if it turns out that I am the best candidate to beat Donald Trump."

Beto O'Rourke

The Texas congressman was introduced to the national stage as a 2016 Texas senatorial candidate against Republican incumbent Ted Cruz. Despite his loss, his viral speeches captured the attention of voters across the country, and he has since met with former President Barack Obama while considering a 2020 bid.

Mr O'Rourke has also said he will make a decision in the coming months.

Joe Biden

The former two-term vice president consistently receives a majority of support among Democratic voters to run in 2020 against any other potential candidates in recent polling. he would likely be a top contender among independent voters and centrist-Republicans who have been disgruntled with the current administration.

He has already begun addressing the issue of his age - At 76-years-old, Mr Biden is four years older than Mr Trump - suggesting he's "the most qualified person" to run against Mr Trump in 2020.

"I think I'm the most qualified person in the country to be president. The issues that we face as a country today are the issues that I've worked on my whole life - the plight of the middle class and foreign policy," he said this week in Montana. "I may be a gaffe machine, but my God, what a wonderful thing compared to a guy who can't tell the truth. No one doubts what I say. The problem is I sometimes say all that I mean."

I agree with you guys because he is our president and he is showing everyone and the younger society that it is OK for name calling and bullying people. Trump tweets are not effective about Hillary Clinton because what's his reasoning for doing it.

I agree that Trump name calling and bullying Hillary through twitter has had a negative impact on our country. I thought the article about how bullying rates have increased was very interesting and shows what a negative impact Trump's tweets can have on the youth in America.
