86. Oh yes, the mocking of journalist Serge Kovaleski

Who has a joint condition.



I have 2 separate male MAGAt cousins in my family who both ridiculed Joe Biden after the debate on social media.


Joe Biden has been open about his lifelong speech stutter/stammer publicly and has stated that he has this condition since he was a young child.

I took it personally when both of my male cousins ridiculed Joe since my daughter had a speech impediment when she was a toddler.

My daughter spent 3 or 4 years in speech therapy in a public school system. I'm extremely grateful for the school and the speech therapist who helped my daughter. She still has issues with certain pronunciations and letters.

Remember, Donald Trump has a family member who needed lifelong care and he literally mentioned that the family member should just die or would be better off dead.

I don't remember the words that this sick fuck used verbatim but this was his own family member.

I unfriended both of my cousins for a variety of reasons but mainly for ridiculing someone with a speech handicap.

They both grew up in "Christian" homes and apparently Jesus said to ridicule those with handicaps in their creepy and twisted bible.
