An interpretation of events, but not one based upon reality.
There are literally thousands of stories about how soldiers under fire acted in ways which "most people" would not. There was a story just today on my youboob feed about a guy who was part of a tank crew and the tank threw a track right in the middle of the kill zone. When they were surrounded and attacked by the enemy he ran into the trees with just his 1911 pistol and started shooting everyone he saw. When he ran out of ammo, he went back to the tank and started shelling the trees until the barrel "melted" and it wouldn't fire. At that point he grabbed the M50 and used it.
When it was over it took 5 guys and 3 doses of morphine to calm him down.
The most intriguing thing about that is most people duck and cover when they're shot at. Some don't and you cannot tell who will and who won't until it happens. The ones who don't duck are usually called heroes, many times posthumously.
Trump didn't duck. You can hate him, call him Literally Hitler, or any other filthy thing you want, but he didn't duck and cover. And when he was on his feet again the first word out of his mouth was "FIGHT!"
I think anyone can figure out on their own what word covers that kind of action. You not liking it doesn't change anything.
