Is it possible to bully an Objectivist?

The other day someone told me that he thought Donald Trump was a bully. Bullying has been an issue that is talked about a lot and I do believe it is a major problem especially among young people. I started wondering if it was possible to bully Ayn Rand or any Objectivist for that matter. Parents and teachers seem to be able to identify the problem but as is often the case their solutions are misguided. Teaching Objectivism at a young age would give people the tools they need to deal with any person or situation. I can't imagine Ayn Rand needing a "safe space". This would be a much better country if Rand was required reading in high school.

Now being philosophically and psychologically well grounded is certainly a help in these and other situations. You wouldn't develop a victim mentality for instance.
