This is incredible:
When reached for comment about the accusation, a spokesperson for Mr Trump returned the insult to Mr Kinzinger.
“Adam Kinzinger farted on live TV and is an unemployed fraud,” the spokesperson said in a statement provided to The Independent.
“He has disgraced his country and disrespects everyone around him because he is a sad individual who is mad about how his miserable life has turned out.”
Kinzinger just gave us a masterclass on how to troll Trump. Not only is this a “no, YOU smell bad!” Kindergarten-level retort, but it’s also just an ad-hominem attack on Kinzinger from Trump’s lawyers, and it’s pointedly NOT a refutation. They know it’s true, and they know it’s trivially provable. And I feel pretty certain Trump has been screaming at them to sue for slander or whatever, and the lawyers are probably like “nope. You do smell. We will lose. It won’t be close.” I genuinely hope it drives him to distraction. And I hope it comes up in the debates. I hope the Democratic nominee (I know, almost certainly Biden, but a guy can hope) visibly reacts to Trump coming near them with visible, uncontrollable disgust. I hope news orgs take this and run with it like a dog with a bone. I want EVERYONE in the Republican sphere to constantly be talking about how godawful Trump smells.
