I'm in a heated argument on fascistbook with a lifelong friend, she has brought up the Trump mocked the disabled man tale. I want to prove it did not happen as portayed. I KNOW that the video where they show the clip from is available somewhere. I would like to take it, and show it side by side with what the liberal weenies CLAIM Trump did. IN CONTEXT and with audio.
This way they could see that it is the video they make their claim about, and that it is not true the way they tell it. I aint smart enough to put this together but I KNOW there are people here, who are.
Odd...that’s Jethro Gibbs #1 rule, I think. #2 at the most.
I use that same gesture to mock the 3%ers and Oath Keepers.
There are several videos here:

I found it myself. The answer is, Trump DID mock the reporter who authored the article that he was denying. That author though was Glenn Kessler. NOW Serge did co author, but the paper Trump was holding with the article in it has Glenn Kessler in the by line, and NOT Serge.
Trump uses the same mannerisms to make fun of anybody stumbling for the right words, including himself. Unfortunately, I do not have a link.
I thought that video was of Biden:
‘Stand Up, Chuck”...
OH—Chuck is in a wheelchair........
“Life is too short to dance with UGLY people”.
Trump made the same gestures when discussing the disabled reporters comments as he had for months when discussing non-disabled reporters fake hysteria.
Excellent link, thanks for posting it.
So you're saying avoid political discourse?
Like we all do here on FR?
As soon as you prevail you will be unfriended.
Whether or not the President mocked a disabled guy isn’t political discourse.
Never argue with an idiot, they will drag you down to their level, then beat you with experience.
Why bother?
What do you get if you win? I imagine all you will do is lose a lifelong friend.
Over the past 18 months Ive had to rely on some lifelong friends for assistance and emotional support. I probably dont agree politically with any of them. If I argued with them as you, I would have had a pretty bleak time of it.
What is more important to you? And what does that say about you?
Every aspect of an election is political discourse.
This video shows him making the same motions and facial expressions in many instances, not just that one with the reporter:
Did Trump really mock reporter’s disability?

NO. Trump was talking about the author of the article in the washington post that he was holding up. The author was glenn kessler, NOT the disabled reporter.
I wasn’t disagreeing with you, pal.
