‘I Don’t Mock People That Have Problems’

His meeting with me may have been the highlight of his career, it certainly wasn’t the highlight of mine. “I would never do it”. According to Trump, he was “showing a person groveling to take back a statement made long ago”.

“His whole life has been a lie and he’s totally shameless and a lot of Americans seem to appreciate this”, Williams told Press TV on Friday. I mean, Seventh-day Adventist, I don’t know about.

Those allegations were never corroborated but have persisted in online rumors in the 14 years since the attacks.

Also, while working as a reporter for The Washington Post, Serge Kovaleski wrote an article, on September 18, 2001, describing the authorities’ detaining and questioning people who were alleged to have been seen celebrating on rooftops in New Jersey, after the 9/11 attacks. “You gotta see this guy”, Trump said. After all, he used the phrase, “you ought to see this guy”.

Donald Trump says he couldn’t have been making fun of a reporter’s disability, because he doesn’t know the man.

“He’s going, ‘I don’t remember. Maybe that’s what I said.'” While he said that, he flailed his arms wildly, imitating the angle at which Kovaleski’s hand sometimes rests. “He was really grasping for straw”. How would he know Kovaleski was nice if he didn’t know who he was? “It’s possible, probable, that I met him somewhere along the line”. And all of that stuff, right?

But that hasn’t stopped The Donald from conveniently forgetting to know who people or organizations are when it suits him best. “I really don’t know him”.

Billionaire businessman Donald Trump escalated his verbal war with The New York Times during a Saturday-afternoon campaign rally in Florida. Trump defended himself in a Fox News interview, saying, “This was a retweet, and it came from sources that weren’t very credible, what can I tell you”. “And the problem is he’s using what he’s got to such a disgusting degree. I think it’s disgraceful”. “I don’t want to hurt people’s” feelings. Trump said he is a strong supporter of the Americans with Disability Association.

“I don’t mock people that have problems”.

In fact, Kovaleski said he and Trump are calling each other on a first-name basis. “All in all, I would say around a dozen times, I’ve interacted with him as a reporter” when he worked for the Daily News.

It also has – and this is a situation I grew up against the backdrop of, without fully understanding it for some time – uncomfortable parallels with apartheid South Africa, where blacks were made to carry identification documents known as “pass books” they could be asked to produce at any time.
