Jesus Christ in a yellow jar, people. How lame has Trump got that his opposition research "beans" on Heidi Cruz is... wait for it... an unflattering picture someone took of her.

What an awful human being. Not that Donald's looks or personality was the reason Melania married him in the first place.

3. Like Mussolini, he's all talk, bluff, and bluster. His constant aggression hides his weakness

But how surprising is it that someone with narcissistic personality disorder is using his psychosis to hide incompetence and low self esteem from himself. The most important place for a charlatan to wear his mask is in front of a mirror.

With freeway traffic just ten feet in front of her, her head in her hands, suffering from depression, years ago. (Inside Edition)
This is most likely what Trump was referring to. Unless there's something else.

He pounces on all perceived weakness, I'm guessing because he was abused as a child.

I'm disgusted that anyone on DU thought this 'story' worthy of reporting. Makes us as bad as them.
