Dont let the comb-over fool you. Donald Trumps rhetorical style is straight out of middle school. Hes like an eighth-grade girl, Rosalind Wiseman told me. cut
But Wiseman wasnt talking to me about some unruly kid who threw rocks at a mathlete or called his frenemy names in a Burn Book. She was talking about a 69-year-old man from Queens who is seeking the Republican nomination for president of the United States.cut
Hes absolutely operating as an intelligent, manipulative bully who truly does not care about the consequences of his actions, Wiseman said. He delights in his own ability to manipulate and to show that nobody can stop him. cut
Trump has ridiculed so many people and places and things that enterprising content creators have made Trump insult generators in his honor. Regular English words are for the time being inextricably linked to Trump because he deploys them so frequently from his insult arsenal: loser, in particular, but also lightweight, stupid, weak, and clown. cut
People bully to gain power over others, and Trumps behavior is the epitome of this, she said. By insulting Fiorinas appearance, Drew said, Trump was behaving like the high school bully whos threatened by a girl whos smarter than he is, and by mocking candidates for not polling as well as he is, Trump is acting like [a] high school football player swaggering into the cafeteria and overturning the lunch tray of a weaker kid.

Go blow it out your ass, Olivia.
Olivia Nutsy is so appropriately named.
“Actually, the Bernie Sanders who disrupted his event in Chicago looked and acted like 8th grade girls. Especially the boys.”
Agreed. The question is, was it precipitated by similar conduct from Trump?
rey loves #blm long time.
Mean Girls. Seems to fit.
So... Sanders is a bully too? What of AnswerChicago and MoveOn,org, both of which bragged about sitting the event down?
Oh, right, this is about hating Trump. Umm, because Trump is spreading a hateful message like actually enforcing border laws and immigration laws.
The bully epithet is thrown around with alarming frequency these days because there are few alive in America today who remember what real men are like. We are led in politics (and sadly in our churches) by men who have decided to adopt a feminine ethos as the core of their leadership style. Whether you like Trump or not he is a masculine, forceful man with a strong protective instinct. To keep this short, I assert that most of our WWII combat vets would, today, be prosecuted for war crimes - by “full throated conservative” Republican politicians.
Know us are, but what am I?
With a graduate degree in Underwater Basket Weaving.
A staunch proponent of the "Never Stop Learning" school of thought.
After all - you can never have enough stupid liberal arts degrees.
Waaaa! Trump is bullying our protesters. Waaaaa!
Agreed. Throw in Sanders too. They are all nuts. There is something clinically wrong with someone who would want the job of President of the United States.
The Left hates it when you stand up for yourself. The Left and their MSM cohorts are bullies. Their tactic is to bully and then, as always, label their opposition, in this case, those that stand up to them. What is amazing is so many in the GOP have bought into this politically correct crap for so long. Its no wonder the stupid GOP has played right into the hands of the Left and lost basically since Reagan left office. The Left doesn’t use reason in the forum of ideas because they lose every time. The Left tries to win with labeling and shame as their weapons
Thanks God we have a guy who’s going to stand up for himself and fight back regardless of the opposition’s name-calling. Masculinity is not politically correct (& neither are the true graces of femininity). Politically correct is the Sharia Law of the Left. Both PC and Sharia Law are reflections of a group that essentially hates people and hates the God who made them.
You could also say who is cdcdawg and why do I care what they say? We won’t do that here though because we value intelligent discussion.
NO!
If someone is a bully, the best way to deal with it is to be a bigger bully.
The question is, was it precipitated by similar conduct from Trump? .... How? Trump wasn’t even there.
Thank you for the compliment!
So, whatever Rosalind Wiseman says, goes. Got it. Thanks for posting this enlightening article. There is simply no rebuttal possible. She has it locked down. Trump is an 8th grade girl. I’m convinced.
Yes, the bully epitaph is thrown around a lot but what do you call a guy who nearly always calls someone he doesn’t agree with a name, manipulates people to his advantage, eschews the rule of law or at least tries to twist it, and seems to love to antagonize people?
