If
there's one thing sadder than a bully attacking marginalized people, it's when
bullies invite you to their own pity party.
Which brings us to the latest
ramblings of Donald Trump, eminent-domain-abuse eminence and one of the leading
candidates for the Republican presidential nomination (most polls now show Ben
Carson leading The Donald in Iowa).
Tired: Equating Mexican immigrants
with criminals. "They’re bringing drugs," he said at the event announcing his
presidential run in June. "They’re bringing crime. They’re rapists. And some, I
assume, are good people."
Wired: Bragging about overcoming his privileged
upbringing. At a New Hampshire town hall meeting televised on the Today show,
Trump said, "It has not been easy for me. You know, I started off in Brooklyn
and my father gave me a small loan of a million dollars."
