14. I guess the "critics" would need to be an American-born African-American accused of being born in Kenya to get it

Isn't amazing, when you strip "humanity" and "decency" from the discourse, how EASY it is to go straight to the gutter without the need to fluff it up. Trump was speaking directly to the people who longed for the good ol' days of "COLOREDS ONLY" drinking fountains and rest rooms.

It also revealed a KEY element of Trump's pathology, that he STILL uses today in his social media trolling...if you put it OUT there, once it's SEEN and/or HEARD, it never MATTERS if you apologize for it or retract it. Once it's poisoned the water, once it's reached the intended audience, the damage is done. That's why he'll take down an image of himself as Jesus. He know the MAGAts saw it and swooned, and that he pissed off the libs, and that was 100% of what he attended, so "mission accomplished."

It IS mental illness. I'll never see it any other way or dismiss it as "Oh, that's just Trump being Trump."
