This is personal for me. I had an older brother who was 20 when I was born. When he was nine he had suffered a catastrophic accident that paralyzed half his body. He had seizures because of the injury also.

Having witnessed the struggle that people go through in overcoming disabilities, for a man running for the Presidency to have such a callous attitude is unbelievably cruel.

I get that he didn’t agree with the man’s reporting and that is fair game, but to mock his disability is despicable.

Uh huh. Sure. I can see from your posting history you have a real aversion to mocking others. Nice try.

As I understand it, Trump did not know the guy and did not know he had a handicap. He was just gesturing dramatically as he is wont to do (if you have watched his speeches at all.) He was pointing out how dishonest this particular reporter had been in his hit piece. In any case, this whole issue should not be about Trump, it should be about what that treasonous reporter did, and that was to deny and cover-up the Muslims celebrating 911 in New Jersey. We must not allow the politically correct lying media to get away with this, by creating this distraction that Mr. Trump supposedly ridiculing the handicapped, instead of focusing on the evil actions of this disgrace of a reporter, handicap or no handicap. And shame on Mr. Bush for helping our corrupt media to get away with this dishonesty.
