I realize that the guy has a problem...but I don't understand why his picture was taken to highlight his problem. I would guess many others were scrubbed that didn't highlight his disability.
And do we know when that picture was taken?
Not sure, but I think the reporter’s condition is congenital (i.e. from birth). That said, it really doesn’t matter because if Trump has to kill a cripple with a bazooka to save our country (particularly if said cripple works for the NYTimes), it won’t hurt his support.
