Slimy: Trump mimicked a disabled reporter (video)

In keeping with his longstanding ties to the Mob and his expressed kind words for such characters as Al Capone, the fictional cannibal and serial killer Hannibal Lecter, Vladimir Putin and Mafia killer "Sammy the Bull" Gravano, Trump's character tends toward sliminess, which he sees no need to conceal. At a rally in Myrtle Beach, South Carolina on November 24, 2015, Trump berated a disabled reporter who had criticized him and made grotesque facial expressions and hand motions mimicking the reporter's disability1 (see video above or here2). Trump claimed that his motions were just random gestures and that he never met that reporter.3 But the reporter, Serge F. Kovaleski of The New York Times, noted that he and Trump had met in person at least a dozen times.4
