(36,416 posts)He'a been called the short-fingered vulgarian since the 1980s and he really, really hates it.

(8,964 posts)That sort of silence would tend to make those scathing remarks seem inconsequential. Which, at this late stage would likely be correct.

He is the classic example of someone who can dish it out but most certainly cannot take it. He bruises so easily he ought to have his emotional platelets checked. He is a HUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUGE wuss.

(22,336 posts)Did you hear John Oliver's show about how Trump can't help but reply over and over again about comments that his fingers are like short sausages? He's off his rocker.

(1,033 posts)uh, he is not ignoring him. I'm waiting on a Mormon insult to pop up.
I follow him on twitter - I recommend it - you get to see the insanity in near real time.

he will come out and call mittens something to the effect of an empty suit, then follow up with "not a fan" (or something equally superfluous)
his supporters will cheer and yell all sorts of off color remarks about mittens.
the news cycle will eat it up.
it will last about 3 to 4 days until the next thing happens that causes trump to utter some inane red meat response to his base and mittens will then be long forgotten.
while mittens (I'm not defending him) will shrug, say, "I tried" then go back home to his millions with a fat paycheck in his pocket provided by the moron right wing that created frankentrump and don't know how to get him back in the lab.
On Edit:
and this speech of mittens being done on a Thursday only proves that nothing will come of it. it will be less than 3 or 4 days until it disappears off the radar, it will be an after thought by tomorrow afternoon, right after the typical Friday night news dump.
just more desperate hand wringing by the right wing and their stupid attempts at unfucking their fucked up situation. That, I might add, was of their own doing.

(62,517 posts)mitten's doesn't give a fuck. it's an easy speech for an easy paycheck paid for and funded by clueless morons who worship at the feet of the rich.
I bet mittens laughed long and hard on his way to the bank.
