Honestly, what the hell kind of thing is this to say?

PBS NewsHour @NewsHour
WATCH: During an event with Team USA Olympians and Paralympians at the White House, President Trump said, "What happened with the Paralympics was so incredible and so inspiring to me. And I watched — it's a little tough to watch too much, but I watched as much as I could."






Paralympics fires back

I did not notice it before he mentioned it.

If true, they could keep Barron behind the scenes, but let the public know. It would have been a good thing for Melania to use as her project, raising awareness and promoting programs for special needs children. Internet bullying? Well, she surely must know quite a bit about bullying.

We don't know the truth about Barron.

grows into adulthood and decks the ol' man if he makes his mom cry. He's been asking for it for many years.

I don't encourage violence or fighting except in cases where people don't know when to draw the limit on their rudeness and hate. No one knows what goes on behind closed doors, but I can't believe their household is calm and nurturing.

He mocked a disabled reporter at a rally during his campaign, and today says he finds the Paralympics “tough to watch.” He's deplorable.

30. Tough to watch. Is he out of his freaking mind?

Well, I think we already know the answer to that.

That boob has no filter. No editor. No common sense or decency. He can’t be trusted with the most ordinary tasks that he is called upon to do every day. All he had to do was stop after saying they were incredible and inspiring to watch. Just stop running your yap, asshole. But no. He had to keep going. He had to negate everything he just said and ruin what would otherwise have been ok.

Can someone just get the hook when he seems about to go off the rails?? Just snatch him away from the microphones and cameras. Bind and gag him if necessary. But just spare us all.

The last two words give away what he means. It destroys any kind of excuse that tough to watch was an unfortunate wording like that he has a busy schedule.
