HuffPost
Tim Cunningham of Clowns Without Borders wants to "find a better metaphor to despise and depose fascism."
Although Donald Trump’s detractors often dismiss him as a clown, a real-life clown is crying foul at that description — no joke.
In a new op-ed for The Washington Post titled, “Donald Trump is not a clown. I should know,” Tim Cunningham, a board member for Clowns Without Borders, an organization that works to share joy and laughter in zones of conflict and crisis around the world, explains why tagging Trump as a clown is inaccurate on many levels.
Cunningham notes that many Trump critics often use the word “clown” as an insult.
