Honestly, I didn’t have strong opinions against Trump other than thinking he was a bit of a nut until after the first fox debate where he didn’t offer any policy specifics and then launched a crude assault on Megyn Kelly. When I saw how his supporters responded to that it scared me and since that time he has continued to scare me as he continues to push the line of decency.

I'd say Trump's actions were pretty typical of generic mocking I've seen since before the first grade. Only a professional victim would assume they were about him (the reporter).

BTW This is the same reporter that the slimes moved to Alaska to smear Palin.

He was not mocking him for being disabled though.

He was mocking his weaseling.
No one can deny that (except an idiot or a liar).

Now, is it your claim that a physically disabled lying reporter can not be mocked for his dishonesty?

You are doing a real disservice to disabled people by making the assumption that they are essentially helpless children that need your protection. Your condescending attitude towards them is not appreciated by most of them, I can tell you that.

The same goes for the race divide that continues to plague this nation (now much worse under Obama). White people need to stop walking on eggshells around black people or we will never achieve true racial equality. Stop worrying about always being politically correct. And especially stop being condescending to them. Treat them as anybody else.

The day that we can feel comfortable telling jokes in front of black people, fat people, handicapped people, etc., is the day that we can finally put all of this PC horsecrap behind us.

Bull. You assert Trump mocked him for the disability, and the rest of us are supposed to simply accept the mind reading act.

Again, you forgive the reporter’s lies because someone was mean.

That is a very stupid thing to do.

“I think that, sadly, Trump could defecate on someone on live television, then turn to the cameras and flip off his own supporters, and people would still support him. He may end up being president, because sheep are blindly following him like they did Slick Willie, George W and Obama. So congrats to you Trump followers: there is that.”

Feel better now?

Now get the guy whom you support to do better and stop whining.

The Lefties and the RINO’s keep bringing up insignificant issues in their misguided belief that it will hurt Trump.

Instead of hurting Trump the insignificant issues are showing how petty the Lefties and the RINO.s have become.

You mean he didn’t do the usual “turn the other cheek” and get into a “prayer circle” to hope for salvation for the souls of the press, like usually happens when candidates on the right get attacked. Or put out a statement expression “disappointment” in the press for not “covering the real issues”?

It must be scary. It’s like the candidate with a spine that we accused the GOPe of not having, actually showed one!

-— So, how long have you had Trump Derangement Syndropme?
Do you need a FR Safe Space where you can avoid the mention of Trump’s name [a microaggression in itself!]? -—

When you go through Trump threads like this you notice post after post of non-sequiturs, personal insults, and hand-waving. The posts are all very forgettable, but it*s the kind of thing that makes you wonder.

The jokes write themselves.

They do indeed, because you are still here. Welcome to Free Republic, newbie.

"Trumpers?"

Is that even a word? How about trumpets, Mexican trumpets:

But then I've always been more of a Cruz guy anyway.

Someone with the moniker ronpaullives thanking about any “voice of reason” is a lmfao moment.

How about the fricking reporter lied, specifically to smear Trump.

(a)He didn't lie. Trump claims there were "thousands and thousands of Muslims" celebrating in New Jersey on 9/11; the reporter's original story said that police were investigating reports that a handful of people were allegedly celebrating.

(b)If he did lie, attack him for his lie, don't make fun of his physical disabilities.

I give you an accurate description of how blindly people are following Trump, and you call it whining? I am calling it great entertainment. So do you feel better now?
