    “If you can’t take it don’t dish it out.”

    I know I am preaching to the choir here, but Trump has campaigned like a petulant child ever since he first announced his candidacy in 2016 and taken cheap shots at friends and foes alike.

    If he doesn’t want people to make fun of him, then he can behave like an adult. But he won’t, so he shouldn’t be upset that Biden is taking cheap shots at him now too.

    Trump also makes this really, really easy; he actually gave himself his own award and boasted about it on social media.

      He’s also so thin-skinned that I feel like this should be an effective strategy.
