Kamala Harris gets it. Yes, we should fear Trump—but we should also mock him mercilessly, because it drives him nuts.
Donald Trump is in free-fall. Read this description from Sunday’s Washington Post of how the GOP nominee spent last week: “[A]ides did not want a situation where he was watching the convention every night, getting angry, and then just golfing all day and stewing, according to people who spoke on the condition of anonymity to discuss private interactions. Trump also had grown annoyed with the news coverage that depicted him as not working as hard as his opponent, one person who talked to him said.”
If you didn’t know that the article was about Trump and you just read it cold without knowledge of the context, you might think it was a description of parents trying to figure out how to handle an ungovernable four-year-old. So they convinced Trump to get out of Bedminster and hit the road, trading suck-ups with Robert F. Kennedy Jr. In the past, Trump has called Kennedy the “dumbest member” of the Kennedy family and a “radical left lunatic.” Kennedy has calledTrump a “terrible human being” and “probably a sociopath.”
Trump had a known decades long overreaction to some reporter calling him a short fingered vulgarian when he ran in 2016.
Congrats on the Dems for finally using that to their advantage I guess.
Decades long? 2016 was approximately 0.8 decades ago
The grudge had existed for decades in 2016. It didn’t start then.
I am not sure that 8 years qualifies as decades
In an article from 2016 that makes the age clearer:
The short fingered vulgarian quote is now almost 40 years old.
Spy magazine used to have an annual “Top Ten Worst People, Places or Things” feature in the late '80s and early '90s and Trump always made the list. Year after year, his only mitigating factor was “at least he’s not in politics”. One year Trump also offered to pay for the funeral of a child killed by a bear - which promise he almost certainly reneged on.
Oh, well maybe I got lost in the grammar.
Would have made it clearer.
When they eventually hit on what his father used to call him, hoo boy
