And the funny thing is, he didn't really mean it as an insult!
On today's CNN This Morning, in a segment analyzing the results of the Iowa caucuses and looking ahead to New Hampshire, CNN commentator Jamal Simmons, who stuck it out for a year as Vice President Kamala Harris's communications director before bailing, said:
"Trump is like a walking, talking middle finger, right? People think about him like, oh, this guy is the way we get back at the elites. The way we get back at the people who are in charge, who are leaving the rest of us behind while they continue to make more money and divide up the spoils amongst themselves. He does have this persona."
In a sense, Simmons' description of Trump aligns with how Trump has described himself as his supporters' "retribution."

Hey, Jamal! BOHICA.
Times 150 million.
That’s right ahole......sit on it
He has my vote, you don’t have to sell me any more.
If anyone deserves a middle finger, it’s the DEMs, the RINOs, and the MSM.
To you and your ilk, Jamal, YES HE IS.
He’s mine to you too.
Sounds like he’s about to EXPLODE , which is good
Our side is slow to react. I believe it is because we know that once we do all hell breaks loose and nobody really wants that. The left will not get the message that their authoritarian system is unwelcome without a physical fight. The sooner we come to grips with that the better off we’ll all be.
“ Trump is like a walking, talking middle finger,”
Precisely why he has my vote, Succinctly put.
As if that’s a bad thing? Hey jay-mel....🖕
What is sad is, you’d think that a member of the fourth estate would celebrate someone who could be the proverbial middle finger of the little people against the powerful establishment.
But no, they take it personal.
He is implicitly giving away that he believes he belongs to the power establishment, and doen not realize it.
I’d call that an accurate statement.
LOL I was already sold on Trumnp, no need to sell it any harder CNN!
Hunter has been giving us the finger for years. Payback is gonna be a bitch for these people. It’s scorched earth time folks.
That's right up with library and school-based drag shows, a perfect exemplary manifestation of the Left's crudeness that they've incrementally foisted on our children and the rest of the far more modest public over the past three decades.
“Trump is like a walking, talking middle finger,”
AND LOVING IT!
>> Trump is like a walking, talking middle finger, right?
Sure is, Jamal! He’s OUR middle finger! To you and all those like you and the wicked cabal and administrative state you work for. And the horse(s) you rode in on too.
A DEI hire that actually got it right.
