Please refresh yourself with Post #96, in which I quoted you, and asked you this:

Perhaps you need to rethink your rancor. I haven't done anything to earn it.

Liberals have spent the past two-plus years highlighting that incident as an example of Trump's outrageously rude and mocking behavior toward others - particularly someone disabled. And now here we are two years later, with a pretty clearcut example of the same exact type of behavior, except this time by a progressive toward a conservative ... except as of yet we are not seeing the same mobilization of liberal mouthpieces decrying Davidson's behavior. We won't, either.

It's akin to Samantha Bee skating away with calling Ivanka Trump an extremely lewd profanity on the air, while Roseanne Barr was fired and ex-communicated from Hollywood for calling Valerie Jarrett an ape on Twitter. Countless examples out there, and on BOTH sides, of recent behavior by celebrities and politicians doing the same exact thing. Rampant hyprocrisy. Truly rampant hypocrisy.

It's what's really tearing us all apart. The fact that we don't just even care anymore. Principles mean very little. We just talk smack and ignore the standard of behavior that we demand from others around us.

This thread is obviously not about Trump as much as liberals/leftists would like it to be as a deflection. However I will say I wish Trump were less bombastic, but that just seems to be the way many in your face New Yorkers are, including all the hand gestures and the like.
Still I am also grateful that Trump is not PC and does speak his mind rather than being the typical melee mouthed politician, afraid of their own shadow.

But as it relates to this situation SNL has once again shown they have no limit to how partisan they have become, and it hurts their ability to have half the country even want to watch them any longer. Plus the other half are not going to find skits like the one we are discussing to be funny, as only the hardcore leftist kooks would laugh/applaud of it.

Nor Cal, I feel your questions had been addressed.

The answer was: The job, demeanor, and message of the Presidency is in no way similar to that of a comedian.

I wasn't aware that you were responsible for BOTH of the posts on this thread I felt were horrible enough to warrant a response. Well done. Your question was answered.

You base your entire "theory" on a false premise. The problem is "hypocrisy" but you base that on situations that are similar at best. You want it to be true but its not. You can't have real conversations when people are being purposefully dense.

How can republicans be outraged about this but not about Trump castigating prisoners of war and gold star families? You can’t be on both sides.

Nobody should be surprised by this. Its just how the left rolls.

To the Trump supporters, you can save your fake outrage. You can't possibly feel that way about a combat veteran when you and other Trump supporters are the biggest fans of President Bonespurs there is.

Actually, the poster didn't answer my question at all - and even denied that I had asked one. But thank you for offering your own take of the situation.

And for the record, Donald Trump wasn't the President at the time of his alleged mockery of the disabled reporter. Although his standard of behavior should have been better voluntarily, he wasn't being a jackoff under the seal of the Presidency.

But does that really matter? Am I hearing this correctly - that there is a different standard of behavior in which mocking a disabled person is maybe a little OK? Because we are living in an era in which even the most minute cases of bullying and mockery are severely dealt with. The repercussions for belittling, mocking, and discriminating against others are very strong in this time. But we are seeing time and time again how politics greatly determines the outcome of social justice in these situations. It cannot be denied.

The deplorables don't care and are very , very proud of how they are able
to turn a blind eye to everything Trump has done because
you know, he is a business man and that is how they
do it in NY .
He has made America gullible again!! MAGA
