Discussion: Despite Shooting Massacre, Trump Keeps Up Speech Schedule, Campaigning For GOP

(Dickhead) acknowledged the weight these moments carry, telling reporters that experiencing such events as president, “it’s a level of terribleness and horror that you can’t even believe. It’s hard to believe.”

Way to make it about him, AP.

I always knew that the orange shitgibbon was a despicable and shallow person but it is clear that we all underestimated what vile hateful callous racist he really is…

He pledged to change his tone for the evening and did cool some of his most fiery rhetoric.

“To bolster his argument for sticking with the rally, Trump argued that the New York Stock Exchange was opened the day after 9/11, though in fact it was re-opened on September 17.”

I was going to say, fucking moron. But I think “lying piece of shit” is more appropriate here.

"Trump’s speech to a convention of the Future Farmers of America had all the hallmarks of a Trump rally, as the president riffed on trade, jobs and some of his political enemies. At one point he also joked about his hair. He said it was ruffled by the rain as he left Washington, adding “I said, ‘maybe I should cancel this arrangement because I have a bad hair day.”

No, you should have cancelled the “arrangement” (good word choice, idiot) because of the mass gun murders at the Pittsburgh Synagogue and the bombs sent to two former Presidents, Secretary of State, AG, current members of Congress, and your other perceived enemies.

Fucking Piece of Shit Moron.
(I seem to be in a not so bright mood this Sunday morning. I need more coffee and more hope that today will not bring more horrific acts of hate that have been urged on and made OK by a fucking former reality TV show host who is the most despicable person I’ve ever had to be constantly reminded of and impacted by in my life.)

Stop comparing Trump’s behavior to that of normal, responsible people. Would you criticize an ape for flinging its feces?

No, but I’d still be pissed off if he flung it at me … or anyone I cared about.

That’s what gets me about this article.

He pledged to change his tone for the evening and did cool some of his most fiery rhetoric.

It’s like Lucey (or AP) never heard of Daniel Dale. It’s likely most never heard of Isherwood, but we’re talking about 21c social media and yet….anyhow

presses play

Does anyone think he would stop going before his adoring crowds over the death of a few people who probably not going to vote for him anyway? Not a chance!
So much for his being a unifier!

Trump’s entire strategy is division. To divide whites from PoC, immigrants from native-born, rich from poor, men from women, blue states from red states. As such, it’s impossible for him to unite the country or to speak as the leader of the entire nation. That’s the choice he’s made.

The AP is run like our missile silos. Still working with 8" floppy disks.

That’s not his calling card and he knows it. Either he whips up the hate or he is nothing and he’s got nothing for those economically anxious people he has attracted.

At first I was going to criticize the AP because the tone of this story is all over the place. “Unsparing denunciation of anti-Semitism” along with “jokes about having a bad hair day.” But it’s not the AP’s fault. It’s Trump whose tone was all over the place. It’s his forced hostage video reading of some staffer’s words off the prompter against his true feelings that he just wants to enjoy the adoration of his acolytes at his rallies and is pissed at having to act like he cares about anything else. He is an awful excuse for a human being, much less a president.
