6. This Guy Goes Way Overboard on the Political Correctness Fat Shaming Bit

Rather than mocking Trump, I feel that the main motives behind Pelosi's remarks were a statement of fact and a genuine concern for the president and his health. And maybe she, being a lifelong Catholic, doesn't want the grossly hypocritical evangelical presidency of Mike Pence either - so best to wait till the election and get both whack jobs out at once.

"risk alienating our allies" who are also obese or elderly....

If Bernie had said the same, he'd be cheering him on, saying that Democrats need to be less delicate with Trump.



He's a Canadian, so it's not like he's part of the "our" in "our allies."
