I Enjoy Being Taunted By Trump

Maybe I have an unusual reaction to this:

Donald Trump mocked the media at a rally last night saying they were in a “state of panic” on Election Night, The Hill reports.

Trump specifically targeted CNN’s John King: “Now they’re getting nervous on television, and you see these anchors they’re like sweating and crying and throwing up all over the place. All those months he’s saying there is no path to 270 for Donald Trump.”

He added: “He’s up with the red map, and he’s going and his hands start to shake, and he’s gasping for breath, he can’t breathe, he’s choking like a dog. And for months he’s been saying I have no path to victory and you know, the bad news is a lot of people probably believed him and they didn’t go out to vote. It’s called suppressing the vote.”

You might think that getting taunted by Donald Trump would make me feel worse, but it actually makes me feel better in several ways.

First, it only confirms what I always believed about his character.

Second, it does way more to diminish him than it does it diminish me.

Third, it demonstrates better than I ever could both why he should never be president and why he is such a lesser man than the current occupant of the Oval Office.
