Absolutely—call these weak bullies out every single time. And never let up. Never stop. Not for a second. Don’t give them an inch. Ever. Great piece.

I’m going to be blunt. ‘Bully’ is correct, but it’s too kind of a word for him. He is such a pos. Mocking Biden’s stutter was the lowest of the low. He doesn’t surprise me anymore, but he sure does disgust me each and every time he opens his mouth. Vote, people. And if you are low enough to STILL support this piece of garbage, you’re better off staying home. You’d be doing your country a favor.

I continue to wonder why veterans support tRump after he insulted Gold Star families, John McCain, all those buried in Europe and all the suckers and losers who have and are currently serving.

Jimmy Kimmel reading Trump’s Truth Social screed at the Oscars + then trolling him by saying “Isn’t it past your jail time?” Is the way to go. Give back to Trump a taste of his own medicine. Biden did that, to some extent, at the State Of The Union, and it was very effective.

I spite of some disappointments with President Biden, we must support him and insure he is re-elected.

Teddy Roosevelt said it well…”Speak softly and carry a big stick.” DJT speaks loudly and carries a little dick. (Sarcasm is at times rather appropriate, don’t you agree?)

"Trump has made a habit of mocking those with disabilities." Also: "More than Trump’s ugly taunt, one thing stands out to me about these moments: the sound of Trump’s supporters laughing right along with him." Sounds like Hitler's speeches about the Jews to me. And so many of the German people cheering him along. Horrible.

Most of us recognize that TFG is a bully and has mental issues.

But what gives with the people who follow him?

Veterans with disabilities, a reporter with a spastic condition, a President with a stutter; I doubt there is a single person in the USA who does not have a family member or know a person with a disability. Do Trump's followers laugh and snicker at them?

As an Arizonan I've never forgotten the TFG's snide remarks about Senator John Mc Cain. When Mc Cain died, his former jailer displayed flowers at the now museum/former Hanoi Hilton in honor of his former prisoner. Honoring a former enemy... impressive.

Thank you for spotlighting all the monstrosities. Project 2025 NEEDS MASSIVE PRESS coverage and is getting very little. People are sleepwalking towards the cliff, thinking blindly “it can’t happen here.” Oh, yes it can and the years of planning that make up the Project 2025 PLAN tell it all clearly. More at www.stopthecoup2025.org. None of this is normal except in aspiring autocracies! Trump wants to be king of the world with no consequences to any of his behavior. Preferably forever!

Thank you, Dan—keep doing what you’re doing! TFG’s behavior is deplorable—he is the worst sort of bully—and we must not become “used to” it!

If only Republicans would read this.

What does this say about that state of our nation when 30 to 50% of the country can support and even enjoy this type of behavior?

Yes for me too it was those in the trump audience that laughed along with him. The worst of us.
