So... when someone has to be pushed away from something and that someone tries
to go BACK the way he was being pushed FROM, and with force, I might add...
that's not lunging?
Boy Rich... you get stupider every day, if you think Padilla's not lunging
when he's struggling to get away.
Lunging.
Charge
Pounce
Bound
Spring
Dart
Dash
Rush
Surge
Thrust
Dive
Pitch
Lurch
Plunge
Bolt
Spurt
Burst
Leap
Padilla pretty much did at least one of those, if not all.
This is settled beyond reasonable dispute ala videos, so...
PLONK!

"Trump Derangement Syndrome" Is a Real Mental Condition
All you need to know about "Trump Derangement Syndrome," or TDS.
"Trump Derangement Syndrome (TDS) is a mental condition in which a person has
been driven effectively insane due to their dislike
of Donald Trump, to the point at which they will abandon all logic and
reason."
Justin Raimondo, the editorial director of Antiwar.com, wrote a piece in the
Los Angeles Times in 2016 that broke TDS down into
three distinct phases or stages:
"In the first stage of the disease, victims lose all sense of proportion. The
president-elect's every tweet provokes a firestorm,
as if 140 characters were all it took to change the world."
"The mid-level stages of TDS have a profound effect on the victim's
vocabulary: Sufferers speak a distinctive language consisting
solely of hyperbole."
"As TDS progresses, the afflicted lose the ability to distinguish fantasy from
reality."
The Point here is simple: TDS is, in the eyes of its adherents, the knee-jerk
opposition from liberals to anything and everything
Trump does. If Trump announced he was donating every dollar he's ever made,
TDS sufferers would suggest he was up to something
nefarious, according to the logic of TDS. There's nothing - not. one. thing. -
that Trump could do or say that would be received
positively by TDSers.
The history of Trump Derangement Syndrome actually goes back to the early
2000s - a time when the idea of Trump as president was
a punch line for late-night comics and nothing more.
Wikipedia traces its roots to "Bush Derangement Syndrome" - a term first
coined by the late conservative columnist Charles
Krauthammer back in 2003. The condition, as Krauthammer defined it, was "the
acute onset of paranoia in otherwise normal people
in reaction to the policies, the presidency - nay - the very existence of
George W. Bush."
