4. Everything with Trump is always projection
Sat Nov 29, 2025, 01:15 PM
Nov 29

He's always had difficulty reading, even before the senior dementia issues - the SNL people who were present when he guested have commented that the first readthrough with him was painful to see. He may have dyslexia. He was unable to take his own college exams, by more than one source. There was the professor who called him the dumbest student he'd ever seen.

I don't mean he was developmentally delayed in the way the the 'retarded' slur refers to, but he has a history of learning problems leading all the way back. And I have no sympathy for him in any way; he's the stuff of nightmares, inside and out. (May be a partial source of the constant comments on people's looks, although it's also a way to try to hurt women specifically.)

You know that Fred Trump would never have shut up about this. And the Moron in Chief also has a track record on film and camera of shouting "Don't call me stupid! Never call me stupid!"

No sympathy for the monster. OTOH, there's a reason for this somewhere. I suspect this is it.
