A true leader: Former President Donald Trump mocked Chris Christie, one of his rivals for the Republican presidential nomination, over eating habits and weight Tuesday. “Don’t call him a fat pig,” Trump playfully admonished an audience member who shouted out during a speech at a high school gym in Windham, N.H. “You can’t do that.” Trump was apprising the audience of recent polls that show him leading when he first mentioned the former New Jersey governor, who was once one a close adviser. “Christie, he’s eating right now,” Trump said. “He can’t be bothered.” That’s when a man in the crowd shouted out to prod Trump. “Sir, please do not call him a fat pig. I’m trying to be nice. Don’t call him a fat pig,” Trump said. “You can’t do that.” Isn’t he cute? There’s more: He seems to think that he will be “proving” that the Big Lie was actually the truth in his trial. I doubt the court will allow that but in the event it does, he will regret it. Cheap, amateur propaganda like that is very easily rebutted. I will never understand how a man who thinks his own country is a dystopian hellscape and who hates a majority of his countrymen can run for president and compel millions of people to vote for him. Never.
