Maybe it isn’t a red herring, look at the “names” he’s called people in the past. He has a proven history of it and it is pretty disgusting for a man of Trump’s status.
Just a few
‘Sloppy Steve Bannon’
‘Senator Dicky Durbin’
‘Little Adam Schiff’
‘Animal Assad’
‘Little Jeff Zucker’
‘Wild Bill Clinton’
‘Cheatin’ Obama’
‘Crazy Maxine Waters’
‘Wacky Omarosa’
From ‘Lyin Ted’ to ‘Beautiful Ted’
‘Crazy Jim Acosta’
and they go on
That finger you are pointing is pointing back to you. How stupid it is to pretend that this is a serious issue. People need to grow up and stop trying to push faux standards of propriety. Get a sense of humor and recognize that Trump’s nicknames have worked in the past because they were apt, a little edgy and exposed truths.
Or you can worship at the feet of Romney, McConnell & Ryan’s ilk whose propriety is a gloss, over an utter contempt for the American public and the Country they are sworn to serve, whose greed and corruption are world class.
You can have honesty, patriotism and a little irreverence or deep state pro snow jobs who distract you while they buy & sell America.
