    Completely out of context! This clip was of him bullying and mocking a disabled person. It wasn’t of him thinking of a looney tune episode.

      On top of that I believe it was a disabled camera man at the venue recording the event.

      I see so many memes about “How was this not the end of his campaign”

      Edit: Wording

    Redditors want to pretend he’s simply dumb, but when you get past the memes, what he’s ultimately saying is “I promise to give my friends the nice fancy rich people kind of women’s health care, while staunchly defending the right to brutalize my enemies for trying to access the mean ugly poor people kind of women’s health care.”

    The policy he’s promising is consistent with what the Republican Party (and the Anti-Abortion wing of the Democratic Party) have always held to. You’ll get care commensurate with your social status. The abortion equivalent of Jim Crow.
