I love Trump’s fearless war against PC garbage, but I really think this kind of thing is the wrong kind of behavior for a President. It’s one thing to make fun of their ridiculous ideas, but making fun of a person’s illness or appearance is really not the behavior of the kind of gentleman or lady I want for President. I’m not going to bad mouth Trump but I think this is a serious flaw in a candidate.

One more reason my preferred candidate is Ted Cruz: he is always genial and courteous. To me, this was a hallmark of Reagan’s popularity. The media ridiculed him as an “affable dunce”, but people loved him for his decency. It is an American quality that goes back to George Washington: tough as nails, but ever the gentleman, courteous, fair and gracious, even in victory.

Same here. I agree with most of what he’s saying on the campaign trail, but in time, people are going to tire of the antics. Cruz is by far the more genial and presidential of the two.

Hey, JR, when I watched Trump speaking of this reporter the only thing that came to mind that the reporter was squishy and not standing by his story. There wasn’t a hint of any disability, which ONLY came to light by the complaining, whining New York Slimes itself, coming to its own, false conclusion. Don’t buy their nonsense and don’t let your love for Teddy color your judgment.

Never happened. He made fun of his reporting, not his disability. It's a dishonest headline.

Why did you fall hook, line and sinker for the BBC garbage bait?

Trump never knew this writer. Now why did you feel the need to shoot your mouth off through your keyboard before engaging your brain and getting the facts? I know the reason but you need to reflect on it.
