It's pathetic. It's just pathetic, it is not defending his father, when Mr. Trump falsely suggested that somehow he was complicit in the Kennedy assassination; not defending his wife when Mr. Trump attacked Heidi Cruz's looks.
When Trump talks about all this, all his own grudges, his own grievances, his own vendettas, his own vengeance, it riles up people he's already got, but it alienates the people he needs.
