I have no idea what you are talking about.

All you have to do is read and you don't have to assume. It's not hard.

What actually happened is obvious to anyone who isn't simply reacting.

Didn't say he didn't.

I was responding to you saying I was lacking in emotion if I didn't feel uncomfortable.

The athletes weren't too thrilled either, just so you know.

It was just another ignorant statement from an ignorant man that the ignorant seem to love.

Bingo.

Trump says something cruel. Then his minions jump on the thread to explain what he really meant.

For a person who claims to be a great communicator, he seems to have a lot of trouble with clear communication.

How so? What I said is that Trump doesn't care about how people take much of what he says and so doesn't filter his words very well. How dos one make the leap to Hitler from that?

Who is to say your emotions are the right ones and President Trump's are "wrong"?

You posit he lacks compassion. The picture I posted up thread indicates you are incorrect. In fact, his emotions may overwhelm him, making something "hard to watch".

You seem to believe that because President Trump doesn't react the way YOU do, that therefore his behavior is "wrong."

Emotions are emotions. We all feel things differently. This is so obvious I can't believe I have to say it.

No. He doesn't deserve the benefit of the doubt.
Why not? Because you don't like him?
