TexasTiger's been posting here since 2003. How far back do you want to go? I'm up for the challenge but I'll need some time to do it. Maybe this weekend I can do it. Get to work, bro!

Trump is guilty of many things, but if you're man and can be intellectually honest about anything, you can at least not accuse him of doing things he did not do. Those are big "IFs ", I suppose. What was it you were saying about no one "proves" the (lying weasel) charges made against you? Every other post you make demonstrates it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's a pathetic and delusional attempt to refute what Trump did, which anyone with any sense at all can see as plain as day. "You've got to see this guy...." https://www.washingtonpost.com/news/the-fix/wp/2017/01/09/meryl-streep-was-right-donald-trump-did-mock-a-disabled-reporter/?utm_term=.7385a07a95e1 Trump apologists such as Ann Coulter have claimed that he has mocked other, non-disabled people in exactly the same fashion — supposedly proving that he was not imitating Kovaleski — but their assertions are not supported by video evidence (more on that here). Trump's impression of Kovaleski was unique and clearly specific to him. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
homersapien 11,362 Posted January 17, 2017 Share Posted January 17, 2017 https://www.washingtonpost.com/news/the-fix/wp/2016/09/01/ann-coulter-says-she-can-prove-donald-trump-never-mocked-a-reporters-disability-she-cant/?tid=a_inl&utm_term=.043e51e672fa Here is Trump ridiculing Kovaleski: And here is Trump aping the general at the same event: Both impressions involve open-mouthed hand-waving, but there are obvious differences. Only when Trump mocks Kovaleski does he curl his right hand and wrist in a way that mimics the effect of the reporter's condition. And only when Trump mocks Kovaleski does he simulate involuntary spasms. Coulter and other Trump apologists have pointed out that Kovaleski does not convulse the way Trump did on the stage. To be sure, his motions are more subtle. But the fact that Trump's act was exaggerated hardly proves it wasn't a reference to Kovaleski's arthrogryposis. It's also impossible to ignore what Trump said right before his impression — "You've got to see this guy" — and what Kovaleski said afterward: "Donald and I were on a first-name basis for years. I’ve interviewed him in his office. I’ve talked to him at news conferences. All in all, I would say around a dozen times I’ve interacted with him as a reporter." Trump has claimed not to know what Kovaleski looks like. What about Coulter's claim that Trump "has done the exact same imitation of Ted Cruz"? Here is that clip: It's definitely closer than Trump's impression of the general but, again, the wrist and finger contortions are missing. What's more, this footage of Trump making fun of Cruz is from February, after the original controversy. Coulter's contention that the media lied about Trump's mockery of Kovaleski with full knowledge that he had done the "exact same" thing to other, non-disabled people just doesn't hold up to scrutiny. The imitations are not identical, and the one involving Cruz happened three months later, meaning journalists obviously could not have known about it when they criticized Trump for his meanness toward a colleague.

More so with the Cruz comment, than towards the general, but it's the exact same routine. This is why it's impossible to even TRY to reason w/ the likes of you. You are so hell bent against - ANYTHING Trump, that you want to believe the very worst about him, in everything ! Admittedly, he's given plenty of legitimate ammunition to his detractors in much of what he's said. I can't even begin to defend. But that doesn't mean he's guilty of every crime under the sun, or every twisted nonsense that the Left can dream up, simply because he's now the President. I know you think it does. Your idol was correctly brought to task for things he actually did, and you objected. Trump will rightfully be blamed for his mistakes too, but to invent things he didn't do... is simply infantile.
