What spin do you refer to?dignin said:No matter how much spin Trump and his supporters put on this, most of us here are capable of figuring this out.
Does anyone think that a child who brags about sexually assaulting women (grabbing them by the pussy) wouldn't be capable of making fun of someone who is disabled?
Meryl Streep was right. Donald Trump did mock a disabled reporter.

Nobody questions whether Trump mocked a disabled person, trump mocked a man with a disability, but did he intentionally and knowing mock his disability by flailing his arms?
All of the people that were sure Hilliary would break the glass ceiling are sure what Trump intended.0 -
You can watch the entire interview on their website. They cut it for time, which is what happens on television all the time. They didn't string pieces together or only highlight out of context sound bites.PJfanwillneverleave1 said:
Not sure about your statement.PJ_Soul said:
I find this whole "the media is fake and dishonest" thing that Trump is doing every single day to be one of the most disturbing things about him. That is a seriously fascist tactic and could have very real and dire consequences in American society. I feel like Americans aren't taking it seriously enough for the most part.PJfanwillneverleave1 said:Latest tweet folks https://twitter.com/realDonaldTrump/status/818307689323368448
Dishonest media says Mexico won't be paying for the wall if they pay a little later so the wall can be built more quickly. Media is fake!
On his twitter Kellyanne Conway went to @MeetThePress this morning for an interview with @chucktodd. Dishonest media cut out 9 of her 10 minutes. Terrible!
What else was in the interview that was not shown on television? Things like this are being censored and President Trump is calling it out each time he says it about any news station not just ones w/ a perceived bias towards him. However if someone is always saying the media is fake and dishonest they are as delusional as people who don't want government.It's a hopeless situation...0 -
Keep spinning. Most of us have ears, eyes and the ability think critically.JC29856 said:Without knowing with certainty whether Trump was mocking the reporter in general like he has so many others or if he mocked the disability not being certain if he has ever had anything against the disabled, the question is what's more reprehensible?
1. Mocking people in general
2. Mocking this reporter because he "don't remember"
3. Using a disability for political gain
Remember Trump denied mocking the disability many times well before the tv ad.
You can pretend to believe Trump, the known compulsive liar.0 -

This. I guess I'm hoping when he actually becomes president he will be too busy to respond to every little thing that is said about him. God I hope I'm right.tbergs said:
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.JC29856 said:
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.rgambs said:It's beyond clear that he was mocking him.
Those that argue against his intention on the reporter mocking are missing the point.I'm through with screaming0 -

Why would you bother trying to defend him on this? He already won with all of this known. His supporters (you being one of them) aren't bothered by the fact that he is a terrible person who bullies.
You can spin all you want, but you can't make that vote clean. Accept it and move on.

Your country had like an entire year to get the message out to vote in a candidate other than President Trump.

Who said this?JC29856 said:It's kinda hard to believe trump saying he wasn't mocking the reporter, he over exaggerated his movements, I've seen him do similar groveling movements but not to that extent.
As for Streeps speech which I did not see but just read, it was well said.

It's alittle harder to believe when you know this and easier if you assume the reporter moves spasticallyJC29856 said:Here are some things that Meryl and those that believe Trump was mocking the reporter must assume and likely are not aware of.
1. It all started from Trumps claim that Arabs were celebrating on a rooftop shortly after planes crashed the towers 911.
2. After trump was called out on his claim by George Steph and WaPo, who denied that this was reported, trump sited WaPo (yes WaPo!) journalist Serge Kovaleski who wrote this on 9/18/11...In Jersey City, within hours of two jetliners’ plowing into the World Trade Center, law enforcement authorities detained and questioned a number of people who were allegedly seen celebrating the attacks and holding tailgate-style parties on rooftops while they watched the devastation on the other side of the river.
3. WaPo then finds Kovaleski who is working for the NYT, and gets a quote from him...“I certainly do not remember anyone saying that thousands or even hundreds of people were celebrating,” said Serge Kovaleski, one of the reporters. “That was not the case, as best as I can remember.”
4. Trump rally in South Carolina where he mocks the reporter that backtracked and "couldnt remember" his own reporting from 9/18/11
5. Kovaleski’s disability is a congenital condition called arthrogryposis. Arthrogryposis causes restricted movement in the joints but does not cause spasms or uncontrolled moving of the limbs like cerebral palsy.
6. Trump met or seen Kovelski before the S Car rally and purposefully mocked his disability... I have no idea who this reporter, Serge Kovalski [sic], is, what he looks like or his level of intelligence. I don’t know if he is J.J. Watt or Muhammad Ali in his prime or somebody of less athletic or physical ability. Despite having one of the all-time great memories, I certainly do not remember him...I merely mimicked what I thought would be a flustered reporter trying to get out of a statement he made long ago. If Mr. Kovaleski is handicapped, I would not know because I do not know what he looks like. If I did know, I would definitely not say anything about his appearance.
Here is snopes...http://www.snopes.com/2016/07/28/donald-trump-criticized-for-mocking-disabled-reporter/
Do you believe Trump was overly theatrical when the media tried a gotcha on him which he turned around on them, or do you believe Trump purposefully and knowingly mocked a disabled reporter?
