Paul Krugman made fun of President Trump for being afraid for his life when visiting a combat zone. Granted, this tidbit came from an unnamed ‘former senior White House official’ who may or may not even exist but hey, Krugman couldn’t pass up the opportunity to paint Trump as a coward.

Umm maybe Krugman missed it but it’s not a stretch to say Trump is right about psychos wishing him harm (see further down in this story).
I think we have the presidential theme song — not Hail to the Chief, but 2/ https://t.co/KhY9Z7G1Q5

Stay classy, Krugman.
I think this is a bit of a cheap shot, Paul. I bet this president's life is more under attack than any president in memory. If you don't have basic human empathy (which, yes, he doesn't show to anyone,) think about what would happen if….can you imagine that nightmare?

Nah, he’s too busy dunking on Trump for fearing for his life.
And if you want to see classy, just look at the vile garbage on this thread:
Note the mirror image as Sir Robin continually denounces and denies what is obvious descriptive truth.

These people.
I suspected it had to do with that or with the troops booing him. An autocrat cannot have that from the military

Troops are booing him? Yeah, no.
“Risks to his own life”?!? Has HE seen the way he eats?!!?

You know she’s fun at birthday parties.
Is it wrong for me to think about how much one person can be a hero and rid the world of him? A soldiers duty is to protect us and the constitution. That soldier would be doing just that.

Oh, look, an actual threat.
Now who would want to kill Donnie? Perhaps if they did it would help MAGA

Another threat.
He should worry about friendly fire after his despicable treatment of heroes like Admiral McRaven

And another threat.
Color us shocked.
I can relate to his fear. After pissing off so many soldiers, one of them might get trigger happy if he sees him. He knows they use real bullets .

Another threat.
And they wonder why we refuse to give up our guns.
Man baby, afraid? Shocker!

Fascinating how they don’t understand their very behavior is part of the reason Trump fears for his life.
Progressives. *eye roll*
Side note: Krugman needs to stop trying to ruin Monty Python for this editor. Seriously.
