Spare me your outrage.
He mocked and ridiculed a disabled man on live TV. You said nothing.
He mocked soldiers who became prisoners of war. You said nothing.
He spread claims that the then-current President was really an African, which were as baseless as they were racist. You said nothing.
Audio was released of him bragging about sexually assaulting women. You said nothing.
He mocked a Senator who was dying of cancer and is widely regarded as an American hero by all sides. You said nothing.
He called white supremacists who had just murdered someone “very fine people.” You said nothing.
He repeatedly used an epithet against a rival that was both sexist and denigrating to her as well as Native American people. You said nothing.
He mocked a Gold Star Family who was grieving the loss of their son, a soldier who heroically died in battle while trying to save his fellow troops. You said nothing.
He ordered the kidnapping and imprisonment of innocent children, many of whom later died. You said nothing.
He mocked a victim of sexual assault and ridiculed her trauma on live TV. You said nothing.
He sent federal thugs without badges into Portland and Seattle to literally snatch people off the street. You said nothing.
He instituted a travel ban against people based solely on their religious affiliation. You said nothing.
He actively seeks to strip access to healthcare away from tens of millions of our fellow Americans who are most in need of it and most vulnerable. You said nothing.
He promoted the false and harmful lie that vaccines cause autism. You said nothing.
He repeatedly used xenophobic slurs to stir up hatred against Asian people and blame them for the pandemic. You said nothing.
He attacked his political opponent’s speech impediment and mocked him for having one. You said nothing.
He ordered chemical weapons be used against peaceful protesters outside the White House because he wanted a photo op. You said nothing.
He referred to predominantly non-white nations as “shithole countries.” You said nothing.
He attacked his political opponent’s son on live TV and ridiculed his addiction struggles. You said nothing.
He openly stated his desire to circumvent democracy, suppress voting, and remain President in violation of the Constitution, suggesting there will be no peaceful transfer. You said nothing.
He refused to take action to stop the spread of a virus—which he has frequently lied about —that has swept the entire globe and even prevented the Post Office from giving every American a mask to protect themselves with. You said nothing.
People mock him because he now has that virus himself and is sick as a consequence of his own recklessness and arrogance.
And NOW you are outraged and “disappointed” and fed up with people around you for being “heartless” and “inhumane” and “cruel.”
Your selective anger says more about you and your own heart than it does about anyone else.
