An Embarrassment to Patriots
February 22, 2016
IN THIS news report from last fall, Donald Trump mocks the physical condition of a reporter with palsy. He then later apparently lied about it and said he didn’t know the reporter.
Trump here — and elsewhere — is an embarrassment to the cause of preserving America’s borders.

I would like to give my opinion in regards to whether Trump mocked that reporter with a disability. In the case of Trump, I believe what happened was the reporter wrote the story about the cheering Moslems, Trump used his article, and then the reporter came out and said he lied on the article and attacked Trump. I wish Trump did mock him and I also wish he would have mercilessly destroyed that reporter too. If I remember correctly it was also brought up that the reporter is a liberal hack who makes a living attacking his political enemies. He then hid behind his “disability.” I’m sure he’s used that for political cover on more than one occasion. He deserved to be mocked for what he does.
There is a far cry of difference between a person with a shriveled arm and a person with a mental disability. Yes, it is unfortunate but you’re capable of using your mental faculties for good or evil. I also don’t agree with this whole just because you have something wrong with you that you are “disabled”. Handicapped, sure, but disabled? Come on. I’ve seen many people with mental retardation hold down steady employment and this is much more of a handicap than this liberal hack. The reporter obviously had a successful career. People are entirely too sensitive these days. That’s the real disability. Political correctness. It wouldn’t surprise me if this very same reporter was on this whole defeat able-ism thing. It’s all sickening.
Keep up the good work and thanks!

Thank you.
People are definitely too sensitive, but a candidate should be able to destroy an opponent without mocking his physical weaknesses. It’s crass.
