Trump attacks Dems on national security

Source: The Hill




BY JULIA MANCHESTER - 08/18/17 09:31 AM EDT

President Trump lashed out at Democrats on Friday and blamed them for delays in security measures for the U.S. in the wake of the terror attack in Barcelona on Thursday.

"The Obstructionist Democrats make Security for our country very difficult. They use the courts and associated delay at all times. Must stop!" the president tweeted.




The president went on to emphasize the importance of combatting radical Islamic terrorism in a separate tweet.

He has zero obstructions in Congress.

Democrats must stop using courts? Legal representation is now partisan too?

I thought this was a "President" who didn't make comments without facts???? I mean, he still hasn't commented on the mosque bombing in Minnesota! He hasn't said jack shit about the marines killed in the Osprey crash a few weeks ago! Oh, I got it, this attack caters to his worldview, thus the swift remarks. Ugh, fuck this guy and his hypocrisy.
