2016 Postmortem
In reply to the discussion: Jeff Weaver- worst surrogate ever [View all]wilt the stilt
(4,528 posts)78. you make my point
a whole bunch of morons think Trump is great by his impression. perception in America is in every day life. Why do you think African Americans get passed by by cabs and why they hardly ever get an interview because of their name. Or people laugh because Trump makes fun of Rosie O'donnell or fat people are made fun of and looked down upon as lazy.
Every study says that good looking people are perceived as being smarter. Good looking kids get treated better in school. Do I agree with it? absolutely not but I know that in this society it matters.

Sure. I said not meant to be personal. Tried to be "classy". You keep on with perception.
