I guess it’s ok for a Democrat to call Trump “retarded”. Can you even imagine the blowback if a Republican had said that about Obama?
A Maryland councilwoman is apparently suffering from Foot-In-Mouth disease.
Salisbury City Councilwoman April Jackson posted a Facebook status last Thursday proclaiming that President Trump is “RETARDED.”
“Ya’lls President is RETARDED…..He’s far pass the Holly Center,” Jackson wrote on her Facebook page.
For those that don’t know, the referenced Holly Center “is a state-operated, 24-hour residential training facility for individuals with developmental disabilities.”
That’s right. Jackson not only called the President of the United States “retarded,” she then made it worse by comparing Trump to a facility where mentally disabled or challenged people try to make their lives better.
And, yes, she “liked” her own post. That’s just pathetic.
Not to be outdone, Jackson commented on the controversy surrounding her comments, and as far as I can tell, she apologized for nothing.
“I just used the Holly Center as a place I know where people have mental illness. I stand by what I said about (President Trump)…” Jackson said. “Maybe I was wrong for using the Holly Center to say something about (President Trump), but I stand by what I said about him.”
