"SNIP...............

“If your political capital comes from picking on trans kids or gay kids or anything like that, you’re just bankrupt throughout all of this. My version of being a man is like, hey, I like rib-eyes, I like Motörhead, and I’m never going to pick on trans kids and gay kids… It doesn’t make you tough. It doesn’t make you a man to pick on trans or gay kids. It just makes you an asshole.”

— Sen. John Fetterman (D-PA), on CNN.

but, it didn't make him an asshole, he was already one from the get-go.
All this shit did was reinforce the reality of his assholiness.
Trump was, is, and always will be an asshole.
Trust me on this, I live about 40 miles from NYC, and have decades of observation of his assholiness.
There is nothing in him that is above the level of world class asshole.

Nobody gives a damn about anybody else
Think everyone should feel the way they feel themselves
Rich men think that happiness is a million dollar bills
So how come half of them OD on sleeping pills?
Eye for eye, tooth for tooth, you all know what I mean
What's the use of a cry for help, if no-one hears the screams?
No-one hears the screams
No voices in the sky
Confusion blinds the eye
Can't take it with you when you die
No voices in the sky
The ones who dedicate the flags to make you brave
They also consecrate the headstone on your grave
Ritual remembrance when no-one knows your name
Don't help a single widow learn to fight the pain
Eye for eye, tooth for tooth, you all know what I mean
What's the use of a cry for help, if no-one hears you scream?
No-one hears you scream
No voices in the sky
Confusion blinds the eye
Can't take it with you when you die
No voices in the sky
Politicians kissing babies for good luck
TV preachers sell salvation for a buck
You don't need no golden cross to tell you wrong from right
The world's worst murderers those who saw the light
Eye for eye, tooth for tooth, you all know what I mean
What's the use of a cry for help, if no-one hears you scream?
No-one hears you scream
No voices in the sky
Confusion blinds the eye
Can't take it with you when you die
No voices in the sky
