The way I heard it explained, he wants to turn “jock” into profanity so that his opponents will start calling him that, thus providing a boost to his ego.

In all seriousness, it’s because he has been so insulated from reality for his entire miserable life, that he does not know what it is. He thinks it may be derogatory, or ‘dirty’ or something.

This stupid fuck has never held a screwdriver, hammer or shovel. The depth and breadth of his lack of basic every day life is stunning. As is his ‘grasp’ of spelling and basic communication.

The only thing he knows how to do is punch down. He threatens, and calls names. He is a classic, stupid, school yard bully.

But we all know that. His supporters admire it.

…revealing, yet again, his ignorance of the Constitution, which makes no provision for the impeachment of Senators.

Demanding the impeachment of a senator while he himself is threatened with impeachment is just Chump’s version of, “Oh yeah? Well, you’re one too!”

Insulting the most recent non-him nominee for his own party (and the one before that too, before he died). I can’t imagine Obama tearing Kerry or Gore a new one. Clinton didn’t go after Dukakis and Mondale when he faced impeachment.

I have a long list of things I have trouble with in this era, but reliable Republican voters who are standing by him while he shits on all the people they previously worshiped really is a disconnect I can’t fathom no matter how hard I tried.

Definitely, in true Trumpian rubber/glue schoolyard fashion.

It’s impossible not to suspect that in the minds of those people, “decency” is some made-up fakery that others only pretend to have, in order to get what they want.

They just don’t understand the concept. It’s alien to them.

I think a big chunk is those, another big chunk have a Pavlovian vote (they never look at issues, never look at candidates, they just vote X because “I am an X!”) and others are a mixture of:

- people who understand decency but find it hard, so they can’t believe that large chunks of it come automatically to others,
- or whose definition of decency is different from that of other Americans (for example, they’re a lot more keen on “leaving people alone” than on “making sure everybody is inasmuch as possible in decent health”),
- people whose definitions are terribly skewed, such as those gay/bisexual people who are convinced they’re not gay because their wristbones are fine and not bisexual because they don’t run around having sex with everybody,
- and people who would believe anything so long as it comes from Authority (from personal experience with people like this, they also tend to elaborate on whatever The Authority actually said). The POTUS is the biggest Authority in the land. If he says the moon is a square then the moon is a square, period, and it’s not possible to land on it because you’d stick yourself with the points.

This is the guy who during the campaign said with a straight face that the 14th amendment was unconstitutional. People voted for him anyway which reveals a certain amount of ignorance on their part as well.
