Trump Is Just Another Rich Asshole Who Is Used To People Bowing And Scraping To Him

He's the boss who gets away with murder with his employees because their livelihoods depend on him. He's the rich guy who oozes privilege and who is used to not having his bullshit challenged because he's the richest guy in the room.

As Americans, we've all had to suck it up at some point in our lives and let slide the bullshit uttered by these assholes. Trump has insulted plenty of people, including war heros. The problem this time is that he disrespected a dead war hero. Most people respect another person making the ultimate sacrifice for our country because, frankly, 95% of us would never be able to do that ourselves. We're just not that brave or patriotic.

But we know what real heroism is, and it has nothing to do with the bravado we hear every day from a coward like Trump.

He is used to getting away for being a spoiled asshole due to his money. Once he loses he will have the mother of all tantrums. He's already saying the election is rigged.

Who would always agree with him. Now when he rants people like the Khan family calls him on his shit and he doesn't know what to do except rant louder to "win"
