'Has he met his boss?' Vance mocked after complaining about Dems turning tables on the GOP
August 11, 2024
In a 2017 article published by Politico Magazine titled "Trump the Bully," journalist Jack Shafer submitted that Donald Trump's constant "insults exact damage by violating the usual comity that governs civilized life." Shafer added, "Like a Hell’s Angel, Trump transgresses for the pure joy of it, and he gets away with it because few possess the will to descend to his level and retaliate."
A Washington Post report published in February of 2020 titled, "Trump’s words, bullied kids, scarred schools," journalists Hannah Natanson, John Woodrow Cox and Perry Stein reported:
Since Trump's rise to the nation’s highest office, his inflammatory language — often condemned as racist and xenophobic — has seeped into schools across America. Many bullies now target other children differently than they used to, with kids as young as 6 mimicking the president’s insults and the cruel way he delivers them.
Most recently, reporting that the MAGA hopeful's "racist comment that" Vice President Kamala Harris "'happened to turn Black' was met with offense, ridicule and even exasperation among Republicans," USA Today columnist Rex Huppke also noted that Trump has since come up with the nickname "Kamabla."

Huppke asked, "Is that some combination of 'Kamala' and 'Black,' is it making fun of her name, is it just weird-old-man humor?"
It appears that no one has discovered the answer to that question yet, but Trump's running mate, Senator JD Vance (R-OH) during a CNN interview Sunday slammed Democrats for "making fun of" and "bullying" Republicans.
CBS News congressional correspondent Scott Macfarlane reported via X: "On CNN, Sen. JD Vance (R-OH) accuses Democrats of engaging in name-calling and schoolyard bullying in campaign."
MSNBC contributor Brian Tyler Cohen replied: "Crooked Hillary, Crazy Nancy Pelosi, Sleepy Joe, Coco Chow, Lyin Ted, Ron DeSanctimonious, Birdbrain Nikki Haley, Old Crow McConnell, Gavin Newscum, Pencil Neck Schiff, Pocahontas, Cryin Chuck, and Kamabla would all like a word."
