    In this context and with the stakes so high, it’s a terrible time to have said gaffe.

      Why? Some people have stutters. I do. It’s not even an anxious thing. I know how to speak in public and I don’t get nervous since I have done it so many times.

This may further hinder his ability as a leader over the next 4 years - which I think is a valid concern for both sides left and right, and that losing the ability to criticise your own leader essentially means losing your ability to have a say beyond a binary choose (democrats or republicans).

        I don’t like people bringing this to an ableist perspective because there are always going to be things disabled people are unable to do, ie you wouldnt want a blind crane operator.

Like this man has control over and is currently bombing cities day by day yet is hardly able to say awake as long as some citizens work in a single shift.)

        Pps, I didn’t compare anything to trump here cause I have a much longer paragraph to rant about him that wasn’t really related, but I want to give context that I’m about as far from a right wing supporter as can be
