Message to Trump: This is why you lost the election
-snip-
Cut to the 2020 presidential election and, according to a forthcoming book by Wall Street Journal reporter Michael Bender titled "Frankly, We Did Win This Election," then-President Trump angrily interrupted a policy meeting in the Oval Office to vent about Joe Biden by allegedly asking, "How am I losing in the polls to a mental retard?"
That's how, to begin with. To paraphrase Peter Quill, "Normal people don't even think about calling someone else a 'mental retard.'"
Normal people don't, but egotistical bullies who favor 1970s insults might have no problem spewing out a demeaning label that has made most people cringe for decades now. That's one of the most important answers to Trump's reported question: Live by the insult sword, die by the insult sword.
While this may come as a shock to Donald Trump, there are millions of Americans - including a large number of his supporters - who believe that a president should conduct himself with class, dignity and grace, if not for himself, then most certainly out of respect for the highest office in the land.
If he indeed asked such a revolting question in the White House, he insulted the presidency and those Americans who believe the office should represent the best in all of us.

(9,953 posts)... Crooked Donald never conducted himself with "class, dignity and grace," but people still voted for him. More people saw "class, dignity and grace" in Hillary Clinton and Joe Biden. I think the Orange One believes he has those qualities, though, simply because he sees himself as having expensive taste in wives and properties.

Projection is his M.O. That's how we know the Russian collusion is not a "hoax", it's a fact.
