    When the person you are speaking with drops something, it is pretty much everybody’s natural reaction to help pick it up.

    The real story is that Trump apologized; I didn’t know he was capable of saying the word “sorry”.

      Especially when the other person is considerably older. The natural reaction to encountering Trump though is to try and stab him in the throat with a pen so I don’t know which instinct would usually come out on top here.

    This post is bait, but for anyone passing through, afterwards he told people he rushed to pick them up because he was worried that if anyone else did there might be violence. Being concerned that your ally is so trigger happy that they would be glad to have reporters assaulted just for daring to get close to help them does not make anyone look good, but he was legitimately concerned for people’s safety. That’s the kind of leader we should be looking for. Not someone who’s obsessed with posturing and would not help on the chance it makes them look weak.
