Trump and disability

Many have seen the news clip of Donald Trump mocking a New York Times reporter who has a visible physical disability, and the follow up in news media where Trump denies even knowing the reporter. The Daily Beast wrote an article examining Trump's history of discrimination against the disabled in policies related to his business dealings.

They say the measure of a nation's greatness is found in how it takes care of those who cannot take care of themselves. In treating the disabled as second class citizens, Trump shows a horrifying glimpse of how he would treat those who require accommodation for physical and other disabilities.
