People in their own families have disabilities, and they loved Sarah Palin for speaking out about her kid, so why do they give Trump a wink and a nod for mocking the disabled? I just don't get the double standard, but that's the image of a typical GOP voter. They love coal fired power plants and nuclear power, just not in their communities. They're voting for politicians who want to gut every social program there is, but don't mess with the ones they depend on. They want to invade, attack and nuke every brown skinned country in the world, but they object to paying the bills to support their rabid jingoism.
