(51,611 posts)and it didn't seem like a recognizable voice and I went to see who was going on and on and on.....She speaks so seldom I didn't even know it was her.

(3,479 posts)I'd laugh in their face, and so would most 4th graders. For a proper dressing down, read some of Anne Navarro or Ted Leiu's tweets.

(56,828 posts)Trump does it to project onto an opponent a fault of his own. If he can stick somebody with another label, it won't as easily come back to him.
"Low Energy" Jeb Bush, but Trump was the one that needed a golf cart to keep up with the walking 65 year old Angela Merkel, and he's the one that's gone out golfing 100+ times in a year.
Lyin' Ted Cruz, but Trump has shattered every record in the book for lies told and "pants of fire" level lies.
"Crazy" Bernie Sanders, but Trump is the one crazily tweeting out late night/early morning attacks on celebrities and 4th rate powers like North Korea
"Crooked" Hillary Clinton, but it's Trump who has filled the DC "swamp" with corrosive toxic waste.
"Low IQ" Maxine Waters, but it's Trump that knows little to nothing about government and the Constitution
And, of course, his favorite "Little" - Little Marco Rubio, Liddle Bob Corker, Little Rocket Man, Little Adam Schiff... and, we all know what that one means.

(3,479 posts)Trump (and Republicans in general) are masters at projecting their faults onto their opponents.

(2,212 posts)A reporter, a congressperson- someone. Just walk up and say "hello don the con" or "hello orange faced oyster brain"
He calls people names with no consequences, he needs to feel his own tactic first hand.
This wouldn't cheapen the office he holds anymore than he has already.
