    If it wasn't Trump, it'd be Clinton, a person whose presence in the election diverted votes to Trump because she was widely perceived to be a criminal.
    I think there's a common perception that politicians are criminals by nature. But not all of them are also retards. This one is, and fwiw he's also on another level of criminal than most politicians.

    No, he's not. Not by any literal interpretation of the word. He just has very different priorities, knowledge, and responsibilities than you do, so he acts differently.

    The assertion that he's lacking in mental function is a cop out. Just gimme a break with that nonsense. If you don't want to see those you disagree with as intelligent humans, then you're being a bigot.
    If you're willing to dehumanize those you oppose in order to buoy your own sense of self-righteousness, then you've coopted the weight of your voice. You will never understand your opposition if you cannot see them as intelligent, caring people. You will never sway those you oppose if you cannot understand them.

    What is all this? lol, so the guy isn't literally mentally retarded is your point?

    Ok, I'll call him another name then, 'clueless'. Is that better? Or are you going to go all dictionary on me on that as well?

    No need. Your position is pure ad hominem. There's no substance to it, nor any reason to bring it up if it were substantive.
    Even if we assume your postulate, then what? We have a 'tarded president. OK. How shall we act, with this knowledge.

    What? Yes, he's 'tarded. You said.
    OK...
    Now calm down...
    Dude. Didn't anyone ever tell you that it's just terribly rude to mock those less fortunate that you? Can you stop pointing at the retarded guy and calling him retarded?
    You're being a dick.
    Don't be a dick.

    Hey. You do you. I'm not telling you what to think or say. I'm just pointing out that what you choose to say when you express what you think is often not indicative of someone who's interested in an intelligent dialogue.

    I've already given the substance, with several reasons why I think he's criminally 'tarded.

    As I suggested as well, you can vote him out next time.

    retarded (/rɪˈtɑːdɪd)
    less advanced in mental, physical, or social development than is usual for one's age.
    "the child is badly retarded"
    literally retarded by the literal definition of the word. You just got used to it. If you heard Trump speak for the first time today, you'd think: My god! This child is badly retarded.
    The strengh of a hero is defined by the weakness of his villains.
