Trump Fat-Shames Protester, Then Says His Movement Is 'Built On Love'

The president insulted a protester’s body at his New Hampshire rally. Moments later, he claimed his campaign was all about love.

By Carla Herreria

During a campaign rally in New Hampshire, President Donald Trump proclaimed that he created a political movement “built on love.”

Moments before, however, he fat-shamed a protester, mockingly telling him to get exercise.

“Go home, start exercising,” the president said Thursday night.

. . .

“That guy has got a serious weight problem. Go home, start exercising,” Trump said from the lectern while watching the scene.

“Gotta bigger problem than I do. Got a bigger problem than all of us,” Trump added, apparently referencing his own weight. “Now he goes home and his mom says, ‘What the hell have you just done.’”

And I guess he has not looked at many of his supporters. Quite a few of them are a bit out of shape. And he certainly has not looked in the mirror.

I hate this stuff. We should not be doing it, and I just did.

We have it on good authority--the best! Huuuuge!!--that God Emperor Dummy Boy weighs a nice even 180lbs and can bench press an engine block.

Take it from a chunky fella:
When a fat guy tries to fat-shame other people, the gloves should come right off.
If he's a normal, everyday schmuck he needs to learn some empathy, humility and self-awareness.
But when he's God Emperor Dummy Boy, the blubbery sack of wet crap needs to be humiliated in the hopes that he'll pop a ventricle so that we may turn our focus to Mikey and Putin's Mitch.

President Donald Trump’s Thursday night rally in Manchester, New Hampshire was briefly interrupted by protesters.

According to the Associated Press, as they were led out, a man wearing a “Trump 2020” shirt shook his fist in support of the President. But from the stage, Trump mistook the fan as one of the hecklers.
