Paul, obviously you are part of the group who thinks the president's gestures were making fun of the guys physical challenges. I also assumed that back then, and I reacted the same way you did.
But as is sometimes the case, there's more to that. There was older video of Trump making the same physical gestures, to make fun of someone else who mocked him, and that person had no disabilities. So it's very possible (that for whatever awful reason), Trump uses that twitching motion to mock anyone who disagrees with him. He may well not have even known the guy was disabled.
Your side always leaves that part out. Because the goal is to demonize him as much as possible, not to judge him truthfully.
Again, you used the word 'retard', you admitted the reporter has no intellectual disabilities, you admitted Trump never used that word. End of that story.

You're giving him more credit than he deserves. It is not a coincidence he mocked someone who had a handicap and I am sure since he knew the reporter enough to mock him, Pres. Trump knew what disabilities he has. And for him to mock him, is wrong. It is not the same as an attempt at a self deprecating joke as Pres. Trump would ever try that bc he is too vain. And Obama apologized for it.

"It is not a coincidence he mocked someone who had a handicap"
He mocks everyone who dares to criticize him. But the fact is there is evidence that he mocks everyone in this manner (with twitching and spasms), not just people who tragically suffer from that.
The fact that he previously used the same exact gestures to make fun of a healthy person who disagreed with him, means nothing to you?

So the burden if proof isn't on you when you make that claim? You can just say he knew, and that's good enough? And there IS proof he didn't know. Not sure how many times I have to say it, but there is actual video of Trump previously using the same exact gestures to mock someone else, who was healthy. So the fact is, he uses those gestures regardless of the medical situation of the person he's mocking.
Paul, lick your wounds and go away. You're having a very, very rough time on this thread.

So it is just a coincidence that he physically mocked someone that has some disability that manifest itself in the reporter have those same type of physical movements? BC 1 other time (which I haven't seen) he mocked someone else in that fashion, you think that proves he didn't do it intentionally.
You're naïve or intentionally lying. You have been defending him for how many pages - that is exactly what TDS is. If the person discussing things with you wants to go on and on for pages and pages you will continue to defend Trump bc you have TDS.

Paul, you are criticizing him for "making fun of retards" when in your own words, you never saw him do it. You are criticizing him for something which you admit he has never done.
This is the most vulgar, obnoxious, jerky POTUS we have ever had. And all the legitimate things available to criticize him for, aren't enough, You have to make stuff up. You ADMIT that you made it up.
And that, my friend, is what TDS is.
