Donald Trump loves using insults in order to try and degrade those he disagrees with. Be it Jeb Bush (“Low energy Jeb”), Marco Rubio (“Little Marco”), or Hillary Clinton (“Crooked Hillary), Trump is like a teenage bully in school who delights in torturing others.
Now the New York Times has published a two-page list of all the insults the GOP nominee has posted on Twitter since he decided to run for President last June. Here’s some of the ones the Times has printed. See how many of them you remember:
Carly Fiorina
I just realized that if you listen to Carly Fiorina for more than ten minutes straight, you develop a massive headache. She has zero chance!

Rand Paul
Truly weird Senator Rand Paul of Kentucky reminds me of a spoiled brat without a properly functioning brain. He was terrible at DEBATE!

Megyn Kelly
.@megynkelly, the most overrated anchor at @FoxNews, worked hard to explain away the new Monmouth poll 41 to 14 or 27 pt lead. She said 15!

President Obama
President Obama will go down as perhaps the worst president in the history of the United States!

Elizabeth Warren
If the people of Massachusetts found out what an ineffective Senator goofy Elizabeth Warren has been, she would lose!

Bernie Sanders
Bernie Sanders is lying when he says his disruptors aren't told to go to my events. Be careful Bernie, or my supporters will go to yours!
— Donald J. Trump (@realDonaldTrump) March 13, 2016
George W. Bush
.@JebBush,
At the debate you said your brother kept us safe- I wanted to be nice & did not mention the WTC came down during his watch, 9/11.— Donald J. Trump (@realDonaldTrump) October 17, 2015
Major League Baseball
Can't believe Major League Baseball just rejected @PeteRose_14 for the Hall of Fame. He's paid the price. So ridiculous – let him in!
— Donald J. Trump (@realDonaldTrump) December 14, 2015
The New York Times
The failing @nytimes reporters don't even call us anymore, they just write whatever they want to write, making up sources along the way!

Early Voting in Florida
Word is-early voting in FL is very dishonest. Little Marco, his State Chairman, & their minions are working overtime-trying to rig the vote.
— Donald J. Trump (@realDonaldTrump) March 12, 2016
Univision
.@Univision cares far more about Mexico than it does about the U.S. Are they controlled by the Mexican government?
— Donald J. Trump (@realDonaldTrump) June 26, 2015
Germany
Germany is going through massive attacks to its people by the migrants allowed to enter the country. New Years Eve was a disaster. THINK!
— Donald J. Trump (@realDonaldTrump) January 6, 2016
United States
.@AnnCoulter U were great last nite @ericbolling on FOX. Our country has become a dumping ground for the world–I'll get it to stop & fast!
— Donald J. Trump (@realDonaldTrump) July 7, 2015
The American Public
So many people who know nothing about me are commenting all over T.V. and the media as though they have great D.J.T. insight. Know NOTHING!
— Donald J. Trump (@realDonaldTrump) July 29, 2015
As you can see, Trump has insulted just about everyone and everything on the face of the earth in the past year and a half. But it’s also instructive to keep in mind that many experts on human psychology say those who find fault with others and are quick to use an insult instead of engaging in rational debate are often hiding their own insecurities and feelings of inferiority. What does that say about Trump? Maybe that his hands aren’t the only tiny thing about him and he’s mighty pissed off that he got shorted in some departments.
