Trump is like the kid in A Christmas Story

Who thinks the teacher will have the academic equivalent of multiple orgasms when she reads his theme, only to find out that it’s a C paper with the words “you’ll shoot your eye out”.

and writing A + + + + while chortling what a great student Ralphie was.

Ralphie was a bit young to think of it as an "orgasmic" moment, but it's hard not to make that inference if you're a dirty old man like I am.

As a former elementary school teacher I know that a little "+" is a big deal to a kid. On a different note, my first graders knew the difference between "would" and "wouldn't" since I taught them contractions.

He bullied Ralphie and one day he reached his limit and beat the shit out of him.
