I could accept many descriptions of Trump but not coward. He’s manifestly not that - to the extent that his entire support is based on having the stones to suffer through this gauntlet laid before him.

Many believe that bullies are psychologically damaged individuals with intense feelings of insecurity about themselves (e.g. their penis), and this is why they lash out constantly both verbally and sometimes violently at others. IMHO, Trump brashness and bravado is masking his inner cowardice. His frequent Twitter rants filled with slanders and vulgarities usually coincide with poor results in a primary or with some bad polling data. He feels threatened (e.g. that high might be a loser) and lashes out at the world (and his competitors) to comfort those inner thoughts of failure. Some would call this cowardice because he is unable to manage his emotions in a normal or appropriate way!
