A comment (below) on the rendering of the "tiny hands" in this Luckovich cartoon. From where I sit, it's legitimate political caricature / satire. Take a look at the cartoon. https://twitter.com/mluckovichajc/status/1283154004898390017
Some people are born with small hands. Or no hands. Or with any of a myriad of "non-typical" physical attributes. This class of people includes my son Jake, a "multiply-handicapped" person & proud graduate of @perkinsvision. 2/n
Through Jakob & Perkins I've met dozens of people who are not neurotypical, vision-typical, physiologically-typical, & so forth. I've learned a lot from them, I hope. But I myself am a cisgendered white male TAB ('temporarily able-bodied), so of course I may be blinkered. 3/n
It seems to me that Luckovich & other who call attention to what may be Tr**p's smaller-than-typical hands are emphasizing are not Tr**p's hands, but his insecurity, his habitual lying, his hypocritical propensity to mock people who are not physiologically typical. 4/n
[null tweet. Please mentally edit the preceding tweet in this threat changing "are" to "is".]
As a person of a categorically privileged class — healthy able-bodied white guy in America — which I did not choose but don't pretend to renounce (how is that even possible?) . . .4/n
— I welcome comments from people of other communities & backgrounds & experiences about the depiction of Tr**p's small hands in political cartoon like the one at the top of this thread. Similarly his obesity, etc. In my mind people are mocking Tr**ps moral failings, not. . . 5/n
