No question Trump was mocking him, backtracking on remembering the story, like he mocked others but was he mocking his disability? That's what Hilliary and MSM claimed.
It's beyond clear that he was mocking his disability. Only a pro-Trump bias could lead a rational person to conclude otherwise.
maybe you were duped... I cant be sure bec I dont know Trumps intentions but some devilish details casts doubt on MSM and Hilliars claims. If he never acted out so foolishly mocking others, I would be more inclined to believe you and them. Like I said in any event most people probably dont know the backstory and it didnt help Hilliary anyway.
Do you read the items that you post? The reporter says that he interviewed Trump in person more than a few times. Trump was clearly mocking his disability.

What "details" are you referring to that cast doubt on that?

when did these interviews happen? before or after 911? (when the reporter dont remember events related to the most newsworthy event in american history?)

What does that have to do with Trump lying about not knowing what the reporter looked like?

Plus...the guys said something to the effect of "NO....it didn't happen (the way Trump described "thousands")...not to my memory"

That doesn't mean he is questioning his own memory.

I am conflicted about the Meryl Streep speech. On one hand, she's right, that we (the public) and they (the media) need to hold Trump accountable and not normalize his behaviour.

On the other hand, putting celebrities on a pedestal and giving them this platform and encouraging them to believe that we should all sit and listen to whatever it is they have to say, for no other reason than they look good on tv, is the exact reason we are where we are today.

Trump as President does not exist without celebrity fascination in the US.

Anyone w/ a microphone has the power to say anything. Good AND bad in some cases.

Latest tweet https://twitter.com/realdonaldtrump
It's finally happening - Fiat Chrysler just announced plans to invest $1BILLION in Michigan and Ohio plants, adding 2000 jobs. This after Ford said last week that it will expand in Michigan and U.S. instead of building a BILLION dollar plant in Mexico. Thank you Ford & Fiat C!

That Streep comment about football and mixed martial arts is only approved by people who don't like sports but I can't think of anyone here that thinks this way. Other than that CFL is real football.

Agreed, and the drama/media major students that I knew in college were the ones that were the least educated in political science, government, accounting, history, etc...they sure as hell knew a lot about acting and being fake though! Blows my mind that people put any weight in what actors say outside of their acting and it is "our fault" for propping them up on such pedestals that make them feel more important that your average joe.

Maybe we should stick to what Streep said....she never mentioned Trump by name. What did she say that you disagree with?

I don't think it's clear he mocked because of a disability, but I think that's beside the point. The problem isn't that he mocked a disabled person, it's that he mocks, ridicules, demeans, etc. anyone who he thinks is in the wrong or challenges him. He is someone who publicly makes fun of others for whatever reason and is now our president.

Those that argue against his intention on the reporter mocking are missing the point.

Agree with you 100 percent! His supporters do the same though. They don't like what the news is reporting, even if they are reporting Trump's own words, and suddenly they'll threaten never to watch again and say the media are a bunch of "lib tards" People don't want to think critically or challenge their own views. No one truly wants to be informed, they just want confirmation of what they think, and if an outlet reports otherwise then it's the media's fault. People also act like a critique of their candidate is an assault on them. Shouldn't it be possible for someone to admit that their candidate makes mistakes or acknowledge they are acting a certain way? Whether it's Obama, Trump, Clinton, Etc... Why does it have to be "because I'm an R then everything D does is bad and R is always right and vice versa? Now, you have things like the environment become partisan issues. Because Ds want to protect the environment and acknowledge that climate change exists, you have regular republican citizens against them without knowing any facts. It's basically become "well if the opposite side is for/against something then I must be against/for it"

That we should all be supporting the Hollywood Foreign Press, maybe...I say "meh".

not to mention she lifted up hollywood at the same time as bringing down athletes, she completely discredited herself in the midst of one sentence.
"Hollywood is crawling with outsiders and foreigners and if we kick them all out, you'll have nothing to watch but football and mixed martial arts, which are not the arts,"

this gives you a glimpse into the mindset and outlook.

The mindset is that not only Hollywood, but the whole country is made up of people from somewhere else, and if you're agenda is divisiveness, then we all lose something as a result of that divisiveness. One side will not "win" over the other.

First name basis according to the mocked reporter.

tbergs · January 2017

The most pathetic part of all this, is that topics like this are even news and need to be validated/denied. We know Trump lies and makes up information regularly, so it's almost impossible to know if he actually remembers this reporter. Even so, can the media and everyone else quit being concerned about the level of which hate, anger, violence, etc. are committed? It's all despicable so let's do something to address all of it! Plus, by creating this fog around himself, plausible deniability will always be an out for him.

Can we get back to demanding he release his taxes? That seems to have disappeared from interest. These fucking distractions he creates clog up our lives so no one can focus on the real issues long enough

they have the mic, but that doesn't mean the message is any more relevant than those that don't.

I mean, I agree mostly with what Ed has to say at shows, so it doesn't bother me, but I could totally see why people who don't agree with his politics would be turned off about it.

it was a veiled "as a famous person, we have an obligation" blah blah blah. I don't mind being educated by someone who has the microphone. But when all it is, is partisan bullshit, then I have an issue with it. It's not different than if Chachi were receiving an award and telling everyone in the audience how terrible Obama is. Just not a fan.

Honestly, had she not torn down athletes (intentional or not) while elevating actors, I might have nothing to say about it at all (and besides MMA, I'm not a big sports fan). The message was great until that dig on those not in the arts community. she came off as self-important and I hate that shit.

at least when Ed does it, he is the first to admit his opinion holds no more weight than anyone else's.
