Meh, if you have seen trump over the last decade and still endorsed him, I don't know how him misgendering you changes that calculus.
Not only misgendering and not knowing anything, but for me the cherry was the fact that the only thing TFG could think to say about generic_woman was ... that she was hot. What a stupid go-to. Not smart, savvy, interesting... no, she is obviously hot. That is the best compliment.
Unfuck that guy.
Probably thinking of Nikki Minaj or something.
His ego couldn't take the mockery. Hence the 22 cry-laughing emojis when he was actually seething
No it has nothing to do with the misgendering itself.
It is 100% that Nicky realized that mistake meant that Trump did absolutely nothing to know who he was, not even looking at a photo, before introducing him on stage. That his endorsement meant literally nothing to him other than the publicity.
While not doing much research is generally common in Hollywood and similar fields, people at least will look at your photo first. Trump didn't even bother to do that.
