Once again, Donald Trump exhibits his puny lack of vocabulary. [View all]

In using an extremely weak and overused word to describe a terrorist who killed children at a concert in Manchester, UK, he illustrates the paucity of his intellect once again. "Loser" is a word that has become meaningless in the English language. Trump applies it frequently to describe people with whom he simply disagrees. Coming out of his mouth, the word has zero weight and no real meaning at all. It is a sad commentary on the man that he has no other word he can use to describe a person who would detonate a nail bomb in a crowd of youthful concert-goers.

This is the witless, inarticulate man who is the President of the United States. In his clumsy and intentionally ignorant way, he debases both our nation and the rich, expansive vocabulary of the English language. As a nation, we have chosen our leader very poorly. As President, Donald Trump reflects the society that chose him, unfortunately. We have given up on the education, intellectual curiosity, and mental acuity that once made us a leader in the world.

It is not the terrorist who is a "loser." The terrorist is a depraved ideological tool who carried out an unspeakable act. It is our President who is a "loser," and who is making our entire population look like fools. A pox on this ignorant man.
