Trump Blames Bombing Targets for Attacks

[bigtree]

Donald J. Trump @realDonaldTrump
A very big part of the Anger we see today in our society is caused by the purposely false and inaccurate reporting of the Mainstream Media that I refer to as Fake News. It has gotten so bad and hateful that it is beyond description. Mainstream Media must clean up its act, FAST!

Make no mistake: The President of the United States is suggesting that the targets of yesterday’s bombings deserved it.

That’s would be appalling enough in the abstract, but it’s indefensible here given his role in inciting and fomenting the very anger he’s blaming on others...

1. This was predictable. By the end of the day he'll be tweeting the whole false flag theory.

[bigtree]

2. yep, it was predicted

...he's probably minutes away from what you describe.

Something to tear down Donnys ads. He would have been better served to do the roll out on Ari Melber. Ari is respectful to Donny, who has a brain bigger than Joe and Mika put together.

[True Blue American]

11. Yes,she did!

Her piety is sickening since Mika and Joe had a big hand in electing their dear friend, Donald!

[DownriverDem]

29. So for you

there's no admitting you are wrong? Every morning I hear Mika, Joe and their panels attack trump and the repubs. It's clear you don't watch them now.

[True Blue American]

32. I watch Joe and Mika

As much as I can but have a morning regimen at tne Y Pool. I think that is much better than sitting in front of the TV all the time.

Yesterday during the last hour they had a Democratic commercial. Today Mika was blaming Democrats so I turned it on to CNN. You know ,the station that received a bomb threat? Those guys were truly upset about their friends and cowaorkers, standing out in the cold.

Mika and Joe share a great deal of blame for helping elect their dear friend, Donald.

So forgive me if I do not put a lot of stock in their wishy washy opinions.

27. Yep, you are right. If Hannity said it last night, he'll say it today.

I don't watch Hannity so I don't know if he said that last night but I wouldn't be surprised if he did. If he didn't, there were enough people on the right saying that Hannity won't be far behind.

4. K&R for exposure of Trump's twisted thinking

[2naSalit]

5. Blame the victim...

as predictable as ever.

[Baitball Blogger]

8. Yup. We should study Trump very carefully.

And come up with a personality test to weed out future candidates like him.

[2naSalit]

13. I think a simple IQ and civics test would do the job...nt

17. Trumps the classic definition of a "verbal abuser". The Presidents a lifelong pro verbal abuser.

Verbal abuse is when a person forcefully criticizes, insults, or denounces someone else. Characterized by underlying anger and hostility, it is a destructive form of communication intended to harm the self-concept of the other person and produce negative emotions.

Fits right in with Republicans propaganda campaigns against 'the people' and Democracy in America.

19. Can you imagine what Melania

Takes to stay with him? She shows the characteristics of a abused woman.

Before he went into the White House the lived almost separate lives.

[Sunlei]

22. I think she still tries to stay away from him as much as she can.

Melania seems to love her son very much & that's probably part of why she has to stay married to such an abusive, asshole man.

[MontanaMama]

28. Melanie deserves no pity.

Do not forget that she is a birther and she recently said she’s the most bullied person in the world and blamed the media for that. She’s built her own hell.

[Sunlei]

6. Twitter needs to ban trumps "personal account". force the asshole to use POTUS account.

only way the government will be able to shut him up.

[Baitball Blogger]

9. That would be brilliant.

[Sunlei]

15. No president can say that hater'free speech' 'opinion'-bullshit on official government accounts.

[True Blue American]

7. Yes!

If Twitter wants to clean up their hate filled twits,start at the top!

I know twits is not the right word but that describes Trump and his minions!

[Sunlei]

16. everyone should flag trumps personal twitter account for hate speak, get him banned.

[mtnsnake]

12. The only one with anything to gain by blaming the victims is the perpetrator of the crimes himself,

and that would be the lunatic in the White House who has been planting the very seeds of something like this all along.

[2naSalit]

14. Yup!

21. He's threatening us with further and more damaging harm.

If "we" the opposition don't shut up, actions will be escalated and he will be sure to send the right dog-whistle to incite them to more violence. This is getting real, folks. I'm scared, I'm 66 and have a bad back and bad leg and haven't been in a fight since I was 16 and got beat up for defending my little sister against a pack of bullies at a football game. I did the right thing, but boy did it ever hurt. I hope we aren't going to be forced to make those kind of decisions, but obviously the other side doesn't care about the lives of anyone who speaks out against drumpf so it's more possible than I would have thought prior to this massive effort to hurt or kill Democrats.

[Sunlei]

23. never forget-this is the man who years ago told people he didn't "like"- "I'll ruin you"

President Trump has a lifetime of experience at "ruining" people.

Now he has political power to assist him in "ruining" 'people' or 'groups' or 'businesses' or 'free press' he (and the Republican party) don't 'like'.


"Power tends to corrupt and absolute power corrupts absolutely. Great men are almost always bad men, even when they exercise influence and not authority: still more when you superadd the tendency or the certainty of corruption by authority"

[DownriverDem]

30. Don't give up

I will never give up. There are more of us. I am not that weak to fall for their crap.

24. There's literally a Trump tweet for *everything*

Looking at the date of the original tweet makes me wonder.

26. Let's not forget the real victim: Trump

People dare to compare him to Historical Figures!

I myself compared him to Ethelred the Unready, and it was so unfair and divisive that some RWNJ was forced to send DeNiro a pipe bomb.
