How does the fact that he mocked a disabled person inaccurately absolve him? You've simultaneously said that he did it (and that he does it commonly) and that it's implausible that he did so?

Trump was mocking behavior - the being inconsistent part of it - not mocking disability.
It's the difference between mocking somebody for their views and statements who merely happens to have a disability and mocking somebody for having a disability. The latter is what people thought he did; the former is far less inherently objectionable.
