The words used to describe Trump have certainly been hyperbolic and over the top. That said, it doesn't change what Barr wrote. You refer to a black person as a monkey or ape and you're done, and rightfully so. Also, no, referring to Trump as an orangutan is not the same thing, as white people have not been historically compared to monkeys to denigrate them. I'm not saying the words used against Trump are excusable, they just aren't on the same level.
