Wow. This short of Meryl Streep was available to view the other day on YouTube. Accepting Golden Globe Award in 2017 she expresses her moment of horror seeing Donald Trump mock a disabled reporter and describes how this instinct to humiliate is nurtured in the general population when a powerful person does it. Trump’s cruelty gives permission to others to act in the same abusive way. It was a beautiful, powerful statement of humanity. Since I posted this the other day, the clip has become unavailable “removed by uploader”. Hmmmm.

These insightful remarks were made early in the first term of the deceitful, corrupt, bullying, petty, vengeful, psychopathic, demented Orange Plague. Here you go, from another “uploader”, the Oregonian, in slightly longer form (under 3:00). Worth every second:

The behavior of a bully, someone who by definition always attacks those weaker than him, is quickly adopted by every angry, violent coward who dreams of taking out his frustrations on someone who can’t fight back. A $50,000 cash incentive to, under cover of law, wear a disguise, bullet proof vest, carry an assault rifle, taser, baton, etc. travel in packs and bully anyone brown, or with a Spanish accent, or dressed a certain way, or anyone trying to protect such people? A golden ticket for enraged bullies everywhere in the USA.

Fuck those putos.
