Former Republican strategist Rick Wilson lays out who President Donald Trump really is after he pointed his finger at Bloomberg reporter Catherine Lucey on Air Force One and snapped at her saying “Quiet. Quiet, piggy.”
Lucey asked Trump about what he knew about his late friend and convicted child sex abuser Jeffrey Epstein — and was doing her job — Wilson argues in his Substack essay Wednesday. In that moment, Trump revealed how he actually feels about women.
“As he’s grown older, meaner, and fatter, his cruelty has expanded to meet the decline,” Wilson writes.
Despite his own stature and poor diet, Trump thinks he has license to comment on other peoples’ bodies, particularly women, especially when they say something he doesn’t like.
“The sin is that Trump weaponizes other people’s weight and appearance to shut them up and shut them down. He does it to women, constantly, and he does it from inside a body that would, by his own crude standards, be the jiggling, roundboy punchline,” Wilson writes.
It’s the same poor behavior he’s had for years.
“There is a special circle of hell for men who look like Donald Trump and still think they are qualified to grade anyone else’s body, but he most certainly does and will always,” Wilson explains.
He has a record of it.
“This is not a one-off, not a bad day, not Grandpa getting cranky before his Adderall kicks in. It is the purest expression of who he has always been, and it is especially grotesque coming from a man whose own body is a monument to sedentary malaise, seething resentment, and deep-fried denial,” Wilson writes.
And people should not allow Trump to get away with it, he argues.
“So, no, Donald Trump does not get to call anyone ‘piggy.’ Not morally, not aesthetically, not on any plane of existence where the physics of mirrors operate,” Wilson explains. “He is a walking case study in what happens when you feed resentment, ego, and fried food into the same human being for fifty years and then give him nuclear codes.”
“Catherine Lucey did her job. She asked the right question. He reached for his favorite slur and said the quiet part loud: women who challenge him will be punished, mocked, and reduced to meat.”
