        Naw, playing it off as that fucker having a limited mental capacity takes away from the culpability of his actions. Hanlon’s razor absolutely does NOT apply to global leaders: the only assumption we can make is that everything he does is calculated and the effects of which are 100% intentional.

        People with mental retardation might do something harmful because their DNA dealt them a shitty hand and their mind isn’t equipped to self-correct in a socially acceptable way.

        When Trump does something harmful, it’s because he wants to cause harm, cuz he’s an evil sack of shit.

          I mean, the dementia and the neurosyphilis and the chronic drug damage don’t help, of course, but Trump has been mentally challenged all his life.

      Do not conflate willful and spiteful ignorance with mental disability. Only one is a choice.

        Sure, but one doesn’t exclude the other. Trump’s got both.
