Videos could back him up | Achiewi.And how could Trump in that speech have been making fun of a child with autism when the child wasn’t there, and Trump was talking of an adult reporter, who he likely forget even had any issues! And the handicap, or disability? Not even the same. So what Trump was doing, as you showed us, was normal for him when “animated” or excitedly making a point. I asked – do you mean argument? Nope – that’s normal when they get a bit excited or want to make a point, arms, hands- lots of movement, and very loud speaking voices. No, and they laughed, that’s just a couple of the VPs having a discussion. When I first started I’d walk by one of the VP offices – door closed and LOUD voices, and I saw arms moving a lot one day – and I asked one of the other staff – is this a problem – uh, do we need help? I used to work with Russian people – in a company run by Russians, and I can tell you this – they are very animated when discussing things, and LOUD. Anyone else notice he can’t keep his hands still while speaking? SOME people with ADHD, depending on the severity and sort they have, may move their arms a lot when speaking. Can’t sit still, move arms and legs a LOT. I will tell you a dirty little secret – so am I! I have severe ADHD. Trump never saw that child, his speech was not in reference to a person with autism, and was not generalized – he was speaking about a specific person, who just happened to have a disability, but it was not directed at the disability, or people in general.Īnd as you wisely show, Mr. Is that “he mocks the disabled” ?Īnd then the most recent ad playing in Iowa shows a mother of a child, sorry, I have to switch channels as I HATE that ad, and I believe the child has autism? Is that correct? OK, so THAT child, or perhaps children and/or others with autism have a problem as far as arm movements. It would have been a ONE-TIME thing, mocking ONE person, not mocks, and not “the disabled” as in many or several. Uh, if he HAD, then it would be accurate to say he MOCKED, not MOCKS. His actions don’t even come close to the journalist’s own problems. It would be like mocking a tall person by pretending to be over-weight. Trump be seen as mocking a person who doesn’t even have that problem? So how can flailing of arms and the sort of animated movements Mr. Multiple reasons – the fellow didn’t flail his arms, in fact, his problem is they are locked in position and will not, do not move like “normal” or someone with CP or autism. Trump was actually mocking that specific person. I have lived and worked with them – so I believe I speak with even 4% authority when I say that I never did believe Mr. I’ve seen so very much – I know these people. And in recent years, helping people with disabilities, handicaps, find meaningful employment, and if needed, education required to secure same. I worked with people who had suffered brain injuries through sports, accidents, etc. No other issues, smart as all get out, high IQ, an over-achiever. The doc said “momentary lack of oxygen during birth”. The former was corrected with surgery, the latter seemed to disappear with age. My oldest son had trouble walking flat on his feet (he walked on tip-toes) and waved his arms around a lot when it was younger. I have worked with, and around, and lived with people who DO have handicaps. How can any Christian person judge with such finality? The Good News (I personally view as GREAT News – the BEST) – is that we CAN be saved, we CAN ask to be forgiven, that it is known we DO sin, but it’s what we do about it that counts.īut too many say “he’s a sinner, he’s a horrible person, how can any Christian person support such a person”. (although most seem to misunderstand what the term means) He came to give us another chance, to make us a promise, and show us the way. He was about redemption, about acknowledging our sins, asking to be forgiven, and promising God and yourself that you WILL do your level best to do better. Jesus – our Christ – is about finding God, even if it’s later rather than sooner (sooner being preferred, of course!). What I am driving around the block to say is this – it is surprising to me the number of Christians who jump ship at the first sign of trouble, or who slam a person post-haste once they find out the person is imperfect. Following Him is among the hardest things you will ever do, but also the very most rewarding.
