Trump Called America’s Deaf Sweetheart a Retard

Half of Hollywood is currently temping for the Clinton campaign digging up anything they can find with Trump making derogatory statements about women, or in this case, a deaf woman. Trump trollers are finding shit left and right, anonymously quoted, naturally. They all signed Non-Disclosure Agreements while working on various entertainment programs with Trump. So, they're violating their contracts, but for a higher purpose. This is likely not to have any kind of chilling effect.

The Daily Best worked up a story with three anonymous sources who worked at one time on The Apprentice claiming Trump often referred to show contestant Marlee Matlin as a retard

During the taping of the show, Trump would often scribble down notes while sitting at the table of “the boardroom”—the show’s primary set. A person familiar with the notes who helped clean up after tapings said that on one of the pieces of paper, Trump wrote: “Marlee, is she retarded??”

The anonymous sources also claimed Trump mocked her squeaky deaf person voice, her interpreter on set, and would often make pantomime jokes implying Matlin was mentally disabled. This in sharp contrast to aired footage of the show where Trump routinely complimented Matlin. 

In case you don't remember Marlee Matlin, The Daily Beast journalistically reminds readers that she's the only deaf person to ever win an Academy Award. In case you don't remember how to think for yourself, they remind you this is a new low for Trump.

Maybe this happened, maybe it didn't? It sure seems plausibly Trump. The problem with massive piling on is the same problem as having opinion outlets supporting Hillary Clinton pretending to be news outlets objectively covering the Presidential election. They're akin to testimony from a witness who was given a sweetheart deal from the prosecution to spill the beans. The appearance of bias is overwhelming.

The fact that Trump is pretty decently ranked asshole in person seems to be settled science. The fact that it's now the only thing that matters in a Presidential election means we're all going down the shitter. The ancient practice of picking leaders based on who could kick everybody else's ass was far superior.

We've devolved into a mass of self-righteous whiny me-too's. Marlee Matlin retard jokes and husband Bill fucking ugly chicks on the side have replaced any semblance of real policy discussion. This was bound to happen once the nation started receiving its news from the Daily Beast promoted stories on Facebook. Guilty. Fuckers.
