Remember, all. Hillary is a follower and strong believer in Sol Alinski (or however you spell it.) For those unfamiliar with the name...he wrote the book and teaches how to destroy any government and turn that country to Communism.
I cringe every time Donald Trump uses the word "CROOKED" --- a euphemism for a physical condition--- to describe his opponent.
Trump is using the word "crooked" as a dog whistle against people with disabilities.
Trump sees the word as a way to describe people who, to him, are to be reviled and rejected, as he claims his political opponent should be reviled and rejected for being "crooked".
To Trump, people who are "crooked" are revolting, undesirable, flawed, unworthy, corrupt, no good and worthy of rejection.
Trump is using "Crooked" is a denigrating term meant to appeal purely to people's sight as a way to judge others.
This is how Trump sees people. If you're "crooked", you're automatically worthless and defective.
It reveals something about how Trump sees other people that he would choose a visually descriptive word to describe his opponent in negative light.
People with disabilities often have "crooked" limbs and if Trump finds that word useful in describing the alleged flaws and corruption of his political opponent, what is he thinking about people who are physically "crooked"?
My opinion is this is a man incapable of seeing people with disabilities. People with disabilities will become even more invisible under a Trump presidency than they are now.
I am throwing out the BS flag. CROOKED means Liar Cheat Fraud Hilary should be in jail
I seem to remember Obama making fun of the Special Olympics. The left fought hard to minimize the obvious slander. Now suddenly the left cares about the use of the word crooked?
"The Left"? No. In fact, I've never heard anyone try to make this strange argument/comparison other than the OP.

Before he even used the word crooked, he ridiculed a disabled reporter. That, above anything else, showed me just what kind of jerk Trump really is.

Spare me! You people have no sense of humor, but your fake outrage is hilarious!

If "crooked" has two meanings, why be deliberately provocative? Why not not just say "dishonest"?
Because 'crooked' sounds so much worse than plain 'dishonest'. And, your question "why be deliberately provocative?"... You do know that you asking that about trump, the poster boy for deliberately provocative?
Now, wait a minute! Y'all have been saying that this is an actual epileptic seizure, now you are saying that she was making fun of epilepsy? So, which is it?

When they couldn't make people believe that the doctored video was of Hillary having a seizure then they switched to saying she was making fun of people with seizures so there is no "which is it." It's both in Trumpland.
