Trump deliberately and cruelly mocked a man with a disability.
Obama made a joke about bowling. With hindsight, maybe the joke wasn’t in the best taste, but he was making fun of bowling, not people with disabilities. And Obama apologized. Trump didn’t.
Look, people who talk a lot (and pretty much all politicians talk a lot) sometimes say things that come out wrong. I know I have. But … you have to go by the whole history of a person.
