> I despise this hideous creature, and his tweets like an 8-year-old brat are a constant reminder of how much the sane world is laughing at the U.S.A. now. But I think Trump should be attacked on matters of substabce, not spelling.

I could overlook spelling errors if they were an out of character exception to a generally high level of intelligence. But that’s not the case with Trump; his spelling errors are little sprinkles of stupidity on top of the huge pile of his general incompetence.
