Trump again shows that he is a despicable child.
Trump has added new plaques under his ‘presidential walk of fame’ in the White House.

On Obama: “Barack Hussein Obama was the first Black President…One of the most divisive political figures in American history.”

On Biden: “Sleepy Joe Biden was, by far, the worst President in American History...”

“OHFORCHRISTSAKES — this is who Trump is, and who he has always been”.
This is a man who mocks the disabled; calls women pigs; who joked about the hammer attack on Nancy Pelosi’s husband; who relishes cruelty; and delights in the suffering of his critics. this is who Trump is, and who he has always been.

True, indeed.
Two babies were born in New York within a year of each other, soon after WWII.

One, Rob Reiner, lived a life of humanity and achievement. He brought us delight and joy. His memory will be a blessing.

The other, Donald Trump, will be remembered as an embarrassment to our nation.
