(17,276 posts)25% of the people, like us, are appalled.
25% of the people, like DT voters, agree with him that Hollywood Liberals are evil.
and 50% of the people are paying no attention at all.
And the show goes on.

(56,828 posts)but, Trump is lying that he didn't mock the reporter because those 50% of his supporters that believe anything he says will gulp down the Kool Aid and blame it on the media, political correctness and whoever is the villain of the day (Meryl Streep today, Arnold the day before, etc) - they need these reminders to stay angry at the right people.
(I think the other 50% of Trump supporters held their noses and voted for him because he had the (R) next to his name and he promised to appoint judges like Scalia. A lot of Republicans have held their noses over the years and voted for their nominee - I know many Republicans I used to work with did that with Bush...)

(3,847 posts)that didn't even bother to go out and execute the most patriotic action in our country, they stayed home becasue of apathy towards our growth as a people. I have always considered voting is not just a right, but a duty and the most honorable thing we can do for our country.

(18,964 posts)No...they didn't tamper with the voting machines (as far as we know) but they sure as hell hacked emails and delivered them to Wikileaks which Trump and the right wing wurlitzer amplified 1 million times over...
Pay attention to the words...they mean something..in this case it was the equivalent of a signed confession!!!

(12,904 posts)When he said there was no tampering with the machines, I immediately knew that someone tampered with the machines.

(70,508 posts)Whenever Trump says something I know that the exact opposite is the truth.

IMHO.
Ilsa
(61,695 posts)But I think I heard he's actually done that, too, so it would be yet another lie.
Really, someone should tweet him the definition.
Zambero
(8,964 posts)His use of the word "never".
Arkansas Granny
(31,517 posts)It was obvious that he was mocking the reporter just as it is obvious that he lied about doing so.
I'll believe my "lyin eyes".

in·fan·til·ism
inˈfantilizəm/
noun
childish behavior.
PSYCHOLOGY
the persistence of infantile characteristics or behavior in adult life.
barbtries
(28,795 posts)is the word i find most descriptive of trump. he's pre-child, emotionally. a truly sick man.

lunatica
(53,410 posts)Every parent knows what that is instantly. Trump is mentally a two year old who should be put in a play pen because he never stops throwing a fit.

So what are we going to do about it? Our options are limited.
But we must oppose him in every possible way.
None of us are about to be "Good Germans."
How about we do everything that we can possible think of to be "Good Human Beings" during the upcoming era of horror.

(15,369 posts)express my disgust and absolute horror that this man will - failing some kind of deus ex machina - be sworn into office on January 20.
NONE.
I will NEVER forgive those who enabled this abomination. There is no making nice now that will make up for this infamy. It was clear for anyone who had their eyes open and a functioning brain that what you saw would be what you got.
With his cabinet picks and the GOP literally running rampant in Congress, it will be even worse that I could have imagined - and I had already imagined that things would become disastrous.
riversedge
(70,235 posts)But then again, Trump will lie about anything.
Saviolo
(3,282 posts)And I wish I were making this up, but the biggest defense seems to be that he's made fun of OTHER people who AREN'T disabled in the same way, so he wasn't singling out the disabled person for his disability.
And that SOMEHOW that makes it all better. I mean, never mind that they've got a man in the Oval Office who decides he needs to make fun of people he disagrees with using schoolyard taunts and funny faces. Really super presidential, of course.
Here is the bizarre justification for Trump's behaviour from the RWNJ: https://www.catholics4trump.com/even-more-video-evidence-trump-did-not-mock-reporters-disability/

I got called "programmed" when I pointed to the fact he indeed mocked a disabled reporter on facebook by someone - even after a easy enough youtube search to prove this gentleman wrong...
Oh well - trumpeters have not, for the most been seen as the most smart one around
