This is not just lacking in .45, insulting Americans seems to be a key element of the Brand, I have never in so many years heard a man of such limited intelligence relentless in his disparaging remarks about his fellow Americans branding them as 'criminals', 'traitors' and 'liars'; but I am still chilled by that moment in the campaign when the Republican Candidate like a ragged schoolboy mocked Disabled Americans, the lowest point in a low campaign that should have been his last.
And when is someone going to explain why Transgendered Americans are not worthy of the equal rights they share with every other American citizen?
