Trump supporters, what did you think of your candidate when he made fun of that disabled reporter?

Not trying to bash Donald, just wondering what his supporters' views are on that particular instance. Please don't revert to spamming anti Hillary bullshit. I don't like her either.

    He didn't. Reenacting a person isn't the same as making fun of that person. The disabled man was a journalist who previously talked positively about trump. Trump mentioned him and proceeded to reenact what he would have said. It's really no different than SNL having an actor play Bernie and having him use a Jewish accent.

    As a poet and social activist, I study patterns in life to comprehend meanings and describe the various trends that appear among the masses. Certain basic principles come into play that help make sense of what appears to be nonsensical or appalling, such as the rather meteoric rise of such a flawed and dangerous candidate as was (and is) Donald Trump.

    A long-ago movie kept repeating a line, "Repression breeds violence," that seemed to explain the layers of subliminal turbulence to which Trump has appealed. The country started going off-course right around Nixon time at the tail end of an unpopular war in Vietnam that had divided us, with the "Nixon Dirty Tricks Brigade" (of which NY publicist Lucienne Goldberg, later a figure in the Lewinsky scandal, was a part) operating in secret, Nixon's paranoia introduced into politics, cheating to win a GOP-embraced method for gaining unearned and invalid power, a shift to corporate-colluding when Nixon privatized HMOs and deregulated insurers, and an anti-government (and anti-liberal) mentality was peddled by spin doctors seeking to undermine Democrats' popularity. Enter the Orwellian and upside-down pyramid phase that confused people, creating cognitive dissonance and repressed rage.

    Along came a spider or two: An Alzheimer's-afflicted Ronald Reagan with an affable demeanor and an ability to read a script ("What we look for in a candidate is someone pliable with enough digits to sign whatever we put in front of him" economic terrorist Grover Norquist, the anti-government "economic advisor" in the Reagan/Bush-Bush/Quayle days and also the disasters-creating Bush/Cheney years); the out-of-the-loop Bush/Quayle years; and the very nearly fatal (some, myself included, say illegitimate years) Bush/Cheney years---where the GOP-Florida "CHEAT TO WIN" method was used to override the American people's votes and repress the people. The GOP public relations firm was hired to paint ugliness as "pretty" which deep down the American people knew was fake, but they were not 100% sure which side to back...which was wrong and which was right for them or for the nation. And along comes a snake...the Eden Snake in the shape of Donald Trump, enticing with what looks like "honesty" and what sounds like the layers of confusion and anger that had grown over several off-course decades, fed by spin and propaganda until no one was sure of what is true or false anymore. Blunt, crude, ugly rhetoric struck a chord and otherwise sane or sensible people got swept up in the tidal wave of Trump, carried out to sea. The further away from shore (sanity) these people were swept, the less able they were to distinguish between sane and insane, and so the mocking of a disabled reporter simply tapped into their collective angst in much the same way the Germans got enticed into targeting those they envied (or that their deranged leader told them to envy)...the successful and wealthy Jewish population.

    There will come a time when these Trump supporters come to grips with how very far off course they were willing to go without understanding exactly why---and they will feel shame.

    Didn't Obama once make a special Olympics remark on Kimmel? Double standard much?

    Oh, I'm sorry, it was on Leno.
