You're arguing degree of culpability or responsibility. I'm pointing out behavior. I don't expect Trump to be "above" anything. I do expect people who criticize him for such behavior to not engage in it or applaud it in others. This is not disingenuous, it's expecting people to act as they claim to desire.
