If anyone else other than Trump did anything wrong it was like the world was ending. When it's Trump everyone has kid gloves on.

He was an out of touch coastal elite because he likes brown mustard instead of yellow mustard.

They also called Obama a "celebrity president" meaning he was just popular without having any real accomplishments. Then they elected reality TV star Trump.
