Trump critics pile on after GOP lawmaker calls him 'the most soft coddled person I've met'

A Saturday morning tweet by Rep Adam Kinzinger (R-Il) making fun of Donald Trump's obsession with "manliness" set off a pile-on by critics of the former president who appreciated the GOP lawmaker's description of Trump as "'the most soft coddled person I’ve met."

Kinzinger compared Trump and Rep. Madison Cawthorn (R-NC) to Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky, tweeting out, "t’s amazing when you think about it: Trump is obsessed with this idea of manliness, and he is the most soft coddled person I’ve met. Not kidding. BUT This has to drive him crazy: Vladimir (sic) Zelensky at 5’7” is three times the man both he and @CawthornforNC are combined."

That, in turn, opened the floodgates for critics of the former president with one writing, "His manhood died in childhood and was sealed shut on his 5 deferments. His primal self knows this. His war was using other people and to tear down real people with courage and honor. "

I apologize to not be able to show him (the malignant) riding in a golf cart.....but I do remember that "we" the taxpayers paid for his golfing over 285 times and the cost was well over 145 million dollars......

Evidently they are SO bad that he has to crawl up the hill.

A reporter once asked him what foot had the bone spurs and he said he didn't remember, but it was on record.

He could have just lied and said, "My right foot". He basically was saying, "I lied and you know I lied, so whatever."

I'd forgotten about his doctor's office being broken into. It still amazes me how much this creep got away with his entire adult life.

He found he could say anything and get away with it, so why try to sound credible. I've known nine year old kids who can lie better than him.

I think now is a good time to remember that if a Republican isn't confessing, he's projecting, and these affronts to Joe Biden are nothing more than an attempt to come back on Dems because we landed roundhouse after roundhouse when we attacked Trump's health, courage and intelligence.

Talking shit, posing like their tough, ganging up on those they outnumber, punching down on those they see as weak, using weapons on unarmed people.

The second it's a fair fight? Watch them run.

The second there is a risk of "they can shoot back" (see: Nugent, Ted)? Watch them run.

The exact opposite of tough. Tough when the odds are in their favor and there is no risk - just like bullies. Soft and cowardly when there is any risk or it's a fair fight.

extensive military training (like hell he did) at the military school you attended as a young man. Having excelled at that sir, if you had been given the chance to serve in Vietnam, do you think you would have been a good soldier?"

There is no way he wouldn't have bragged about how great he would have been. He has no understanding of the stolen valor concept.

TFG was squatting in the White House. "On this day, a message from the President of the United States" was the title. That pissed the RWers off.
