I still can't get past the mocking of the disabled reporter.

17. That incident actually made me cry. I was so outraged and shocked that one person

Could attack another person so cruelly and in front of an audience and it just solidified for me how much I loathed and despised him. Little did I know at the time that my loathing would actually increase. I honestly thought it could not get worse but I was wrong.

So I was thinking about this because he did this during the campaign. It was one of many ugly and revolting things he did during those months. Reflecting back, I realize now that he was testing his audience. Testing to see what they would allow. Testing to see if they would forgive and forget. Testing to see if he could gaslight them by DENYING that he did what they saw him do with their own eyes. And by god, it worked. He found out he could drop his pants, Moon the audience and they’d just laugh it off and later on allow him to deny it or have an acceptable excuse for his naughty behavior— locker room behavior. No wonder he said he could shoot someone on 5th Avenue and not lose any voters. He really believes he is above the law.

But the steady drip, drip, drip will wear away at some of his base. Yes, some will hang in until the bitter end and go right over the cliff with him. I feel no sympathy for them, either. They really are the deplorables. But some of them will wake up one day and recognize the deception. Some of them will learn of the massive fraud pulled off and some might even be ashamed that they voted for him or even went to his rallies. I am pretty sure Hitler had folks who swallowed his hatred until they woke up one day and realized they had been duped, to their ever lasting shame. I am hopeful that the tRumpers will have their wake up moment before too much longer. If they don’t, I am not sure the country can survive much more of his dirty tricks and devious mind games.
