Internet hammers ‘exploitative scumbag’ Donald Trump for capitalizing on New York bombing

Internet hammers ‘exploitative scumbag’ Donald Trump for capitalizing on New York bombing



http://www.rawstory.com/2016/09/internet-hammers-exploitative-scumbag-donald-trump-for-capitalizing-on-new-york-bombing/

Moments after New York news services announced a loud explosion in the Chelsea area — and well before first responders began investigating — Trump told a crowd of rabid supporters, “Just before I got off the plane, a bomb went off in New York and nobody knows exactly what’s going on, but we are living in a time when we’ve got to get very tough, folks. We’ve got to get very, very tough.”

“It’s a terrible thing that’s going on in our world and in our country and we are going to get tough and smart and vigilant,” he added. “We’re gonna end it. We’re gonna end it.”

Reports of Trump’s off-the-cuff and alarming remarks infuriated Twitter users — particularly commenters who live in New York and stood by watching investigators do their work as life in Manhattan continued on.

Leading the pack was commentator Keith Olbermann, who called the GOP presidential candidate an “exploitative scumbag,” writing, “Dear @RealDonaldTrump: I’m sorry the explosion in Chelsea scared you so much when everybody IN Chelsea seems fine #YouExploitativeScumbag”

What does he mean? If anything, i think this sort of bullshit would do more to embolden nutcases than anything else, like a dare.
