Republican Presidential hopeful Donald Trump has openly mocked a disabled reporter during a speech in South Carolina.
Trump was speaking about Serge Kovaleski, a reporter at the New York Times who has arthrogryposis, a condition that affects the movement of the joints.
Trump has been claiming that thousands of Muslims in New Jersey celebrated the terrorist attacks on the World Tade Centre in 2001 and he cited a report written by Kovaleski at that time when he was working for the Washington Post.
Kovaleski's report said that police had detained a number of people who were seen allegedly celebrating the attacks and he went on CNN this week to say that nobody spoke of thousands, or even hundreds, as far as he could remember.
Trump then used an election speech last night to tear into the reporter in an extremely personal way.
In response, Kovaleski said: “The sad part about it is, it didn’t in the slightest bit jar or surprise me that Donald Trump would do something this low-rent, given his track record."
Despite his many outrageous statements, Trump still leads the polls to be the Republican candidate for next year's election. The official declaration of the candidate to run won't be made until the summer.
Poster Comment:
Trump must be deliberately trying to self-destruct and take the GOP down the sewer with him.

There comes a time when people will automatically dismiss an article as a hit piece. Ya know, "the boy who cried wolf" thing?

Americans who have no experience with, or knowledge of, tyranny believe that only terrorists will experience the unchecked power of the state. They will believe this until it happens to them, or their children, or their friends.

You will likely be at the camps too. You need to be educated. Willie is a sure thing though.

Is that why you are supporting Trump, because he will put "dissenters" into camps?
Are you even an American?

It was a matter of casual speech idiom. I was giving the benefit of doubt.

If you can't handle the heat get out of the kitchen. Trump is going to mock those that try to hurt him. Trump is the unpolitically correct candidate and the more people pooh pooh on him the higher his numbers!

Trump ain't gonna win the GOP nomination....
If anything, he's just screwing up the works so they gotta have a brokered convention to pick a "compromise" candidate...
Who knows... maybe they have it all rigged so friggin BOEHNER becomes the nominee!
Now wouldn't THAT make you soil your panties?
LOL!!!

When I watched the speech, I didn't know (as probably 99.99% in the audience) that the reporter had a disability. I thought Trump was simply doing a "I'm confused" parody. I didn't think anything of it.
Now that I know, I think it was a good impression.

"In response, Kovaleski said: “The sad part about it is, it didn’t in the slightest bit jar or surprise me that Donald Trump would do something this low-rent, given his track record."
Oh shut up, you thin-skinned, whiny little I'm-special-because-I-have-a- disability cretin. Trump just made you famous.
"Kovaleski's report said that police had detained a number of people who were seen allegedly celebrating the attacks and he went on CNN this week to say that nobody spoke of thousands, or even hundreds, as far as he could remember."
And why didn't you volutarily come forward weeks ago when Trump spoke about it? Why did you try to hide the article?
Let me guess. You forgot you wrote the article ... but you DO remember it wasn't thousands.

no body remembers 'thousands ' of people cheering in Jersey City except Trump (who has the best memory in the world ) .

That's exactly what I thought. I doubt Trump knows (or cares to know) who the guy is or what he looks like.
Obama has played at being a president while enjoying the perks … golf, insanely expensive vacations at tax-payer expense. He has ignored the responsibilities of the job; no plans, no budgets, no alternatives … just finger pointing; making him a complete failure as a president

"no body remembers 'thousands ' of people cheering in Jersey City"
How is it that people suddenly become very literal when it comes to Trump, but they'll allow the press to claim 50,000 people constitute a "Million Man March"?
Give me a break.
#18. To: Willie Green (#0)
Lefties shriek that it was outrageous for Trump to mock the appearance of some lefty reporter.
After all, lefties never make fun of Trump's appearance.
#19. To: misterwhite (#17)

And Trump didn't say that the thousands were all cheering in just one spot in Jersey City either.

That was my impression as well. To those upset about it, I say BFD !

Looks as though we were both right.
