Last weekend, Donald Trump added people with disabilities to his ever-growing list of those he has bashed since launching his presidential campaign in June. His most recent target, Serge Kovaleski, is a reporter who has arthrogryposis, a congenital condition that limits the movement of his joints.
The real estate developer-turned-GOP candidate’s latest insult came amid criticism for his claim that he witnessed thousands of people cheering the destruction of the World Trade Center on Sept. 11, 2001.
