If you assemble all the people that have taken a cheap shot at Donald Trump in the last 24 hours and add up their lifetime accomplishments, the sum total of those will not equal his. Developer turning millions into billions. Television celebrity. President catalyzing rare calm in the Middle East and bringing back a shattered economy— twice. Who else has done that? Or anything close?
It’s easy, and sadly rewarding, for people to make themselves feel bigger by taking shots at those who have accomplished. It brings to mind an illustration of Gulliver tied down by the Lilliputians.
To acknowledge the magnitude of Donald Trump’s accomplishments would somehow, it seems, diminish the haters. And that says way more about those small-minded Lilliputians than it does about him.
