I Know When Donald Trump is Mocking Someone

[MarcATL]

he was mocking the journalist, but he wasn't mocking needy people. that was the argument you fking idiot.

And you see a difference...how?

 

[MarcATL]

I have a friend who probably qualifies as a genius and he never brags about his intellect, but his comments in our local paper makes my jaw drop because he knows stuff that I would have to do serious research to know, and he pops it out at will. His vast knowledge leaves me in awe and what's even better, when he's debating this particular lawyer there, he makes him look like a fool. He is also a Russian scholar and speaks and reads fluent Russian. He can also make you look like a fool without ever insulting you. I love him and am honored to call him my friend.

i have asked him to join this board and he's considering it.

When he joins this board, I'd be pleased to make his acquaintance.

I truly look forward to that.

At the White House press briefing today, several news correspondents repeated a media meme that the president "mocked" Dr. Ford at a campaign rally last night in Mississippi. Of course one of them was from CNN and he repeated it afterword when Wolf Blitzer cut to his commentary. CNN obviously banks on their viewers not bothering to watch the actual footage from the rally.

Trump has odiously mocked people in the past, but not this time. He spoke seriously at the rally about someone being convicted on an allegation alone, without corroboration. He was not laughing. He was not making funny faces. His supporters cheered his statements, but that's what happens at campaign rallies. Democrats have time and time again mocked and accused Trump supporters of racism without question or reproach from the media. The Fairness Doctrine lives only in shadowy memory today.

Here is the actual footage:

It's OK for Matt Damon to mock Kavanaugh. It's also OK for some cartoonist to mock Kavanaugh's daughter while she prays. It's NOT OK, and is unacceptable for Trump to point out inconsistencies in Christine Blasey's testimony.

Lefties don't like to hear the truth. Every time someone throw it in their faces they find it insulting. Deal with it.

 

[Correll]

YOu do know that Trump did not mock the reporter's disability, right? I mean, that has been demonstrated conclusively, and repeatedly discussed.


Come on. Let's keep it real.

I believe it was obvious that he was.

But let's stipulate that he didn't. The point I made was correct. The list is long.
.

It was obvious that he was not.


THe man is not spastic. He has frozen joints. ONly by avoiding the use of video, and how often does tv do THAT? can the lie be maintained.

You keep trying to make this about the reporter. I didn't bring up the reporter, YOU did.

That tells me all I need to know.
.

It should tell you that there is is huge difference between mocking a reporter, and mocking a reporter's disability.


One is beyond the pale, which is why the Left has worked so hard to lie about this.


They NEED, the lie out there, that Trump is beyond the pale,


so that people like you, won't even listen to the other side.



You claim to dislike the regressives, but you keep buying every piece of crap they are selling.

Still on the reporter, whom I never mentioned.

Okay.
.

Still ignoring information contrary to what the regressives tell you.


Okay.

Why did Trump choose to mock a persons disability?

If he routinely makes hand gestures like that, why didn’t he say that immediately? Instead, his initial denial was that he didn’t know the reporter was disabled

Once that claim was disproven, his aides came up with the routine hand gesture defense

Question: Why did you open your post with the assumption you then ask questions about?


Answer: Because you are a dishonest propagandist piece of shit.



YOu know he often makes hand gestures like that, and you are playing stupid, because it gives you an opportunity to smear your enemies.


Trump mocked the REPORTER, not his disability, as is obvious is you watch the vids, not the still images the media keeps showing you.

Matt Damon and a cartoonist are not presidents

They are supposed to lead by example

If that is the case, why did our President immediately lie when challenged?
He knew the reporter, knew of his disability
Why say he had no idea?

Why are you so gullible when it comes to Trumps lame excuses?
You blindly accept his first excuse and then quickly change when his first excuse is proved to be a lie

Bullshit. He rarely gestures like he did with Kovaleski. And there’s no evidence he did before he mocked Kovaleski.

[Remodeling Maidiac]

All you people claiming he didn't mock her notice he NEVER DIRECTLY MENTIONED HER in his next rally?

Hmmm, wonder why? Could it be that someone told him how UTTERLY STUPID AND COUNTER PRODUCTIVE that was and to knock it off?

He doesn’t routinely wave his hands around like that. He did so a few times after mocking Kovaleski just so his acolytes would turn around and say, see that? That’s just how trump talks with his hands. And being the low intellect useful idiots they are, they fell for it hook, line & sinker.

Trumps first impulse when challenged for his behavior is to lie
In this case, his lie was that he had no idea the reporter was disabled. When it was shown that he had met the reporter several times and had actually spent a day with him .....Trump needed a new lie

But yet, his motions were the opposites of what the man's handicap actually is.


This you is libs lying your asses off.


Almost as though you think that just telling the Truth about Trump won't work in your favor...



Interesting.

Indeed. The last words of the Woodward book 'Fear' are:

'“Trump had one overriding problem” that his personal lawyer, John Dowd, an ex-marine, “knew but could not bring himself to say to the president: ‘You’re a fucking liar.’”'

Woodward?! LOL!!!!

He only mocks asshole Democrat officials and sometimes loser Republicans.

He never mocked Ford(despite her being a left wing loon).

so - mocking someone is bad. is that our baseline?

what does SNL do weekly? how come the left can openly mock whoever they wish and yet, no rage? didn't matt damon mock kavanaugh? OH BUT THAT'S DIFFERENT....

 

[DGS49]

Yes, Our Exalted President was mocking Dr. Ford.

It is interesting that the President's supporters are so steadfast in claiming that he was mocking her testimony and not HER. This is what lawyers call a "distinction without a difference."

Why is it verboten to state clearly that one believes she was lying? It is a real possibility, and AT LEAST as believable as that she is telling the truth.

People call Trump a "liar" literally all the time, and he is expected to take it without protest. But when someone calls a WOMAN a liar, well...that's just going too far. Because women are so delicate that they might fall to pieces if called such a vile thing.

Of course, she accused Kavanaugh - with no evidence whatsoever - of being a CHILD MOLESTER, and he's supposed to take that without any visible signs of distress.

Double standard?

Nah.

I meet people all the time, and they don't make an impression on me. Your assumption that he met the guy means he remembers the guy, seems self serving and unsupported.
