Discussion: NBC News: Ahmad Khan Rahami In Custody After Shootout With Police

How will Trump take credit for this?
Really great, fast, professional work by “the Obama-Clinton” teams in NY, NJ and MN…:wink:

What if terrorists kidnapped Trump’s tiny tweeting fingers???

They thought about it but the word on the street is he doesn’t have any money and the majority of the country wouldn’t want him back.

Some people are saying that he was hired by Trump. Not me, of course, but some people…

The embarrassing thing will be all of the Drumpf campaign material found in the Rahami vehicle, and all the “Drumpf / Dence” bumper stickers pasted on.

I’d suggest a harsh punishment was merited for these crimes (upon conviction via a fair trial), but no one was killed and everyone injured is out of the hospital. So, we shouldn’t advocate for anything excessively punitive.

…and they got him without water boarding anyone. Amazing!

Nah, he’ll just insist they “got lucky” – skill and organization had nothing to do with it.

ETA: Or he’ll praise Krispy, because the arrest was in Joisy. Making it indirectly a Team Trump triumph…

So the score is:

Calm, professional police work 1
Clueless panic 0

Perfect timing for President Obama’s 11:30 comments, Drumpf will say “it’s rigged”.

And captured by police, without torture, bombing his family, and all the other anti terrorism methods Donnie has called for.

Or, as Donnie would say, “a mess and disgusting.”

Fast work. Let’s give Trump some credit for … for something.

Coming up next–Alex Jones will do his “false flag” shtick.

Christie: As a republican, I am proud that my state apprehended the ISIS mastermind, with guidance from Sir Trump. We worked as a team.

I’m sure he tweeted the suspect’s location to law enforcement.

And no profiling, even. Police work, rule of law, dumb old boring stuff like that. Poor little Trumpie never gets to have any fun.

BTW-I bought a $7 blu-ray of the director’s cut of the 2009 release of the critical flop, ‘Watchmen’ on a lark (I liked the look of the film).
With the cut scenes it runs a whopping 3 hours and 5 minutes but it’s terrific and only a touch hackneyed in its climax.
Interestingly, Hollywood clipped everything that advanced the storyline leaving the 2009 release, seemingly, intentionally changed to insure box-office failure.
With Trump’s rapid rise to the top of the righwing shitpile in the back of one’s mind, the director’s cut makes for an interesting escapist viewing.

This guy lived in New Jersey. He manufactured his bombs there and placed the first ones there. It’s Chris Christie’s negligence that allowed this to happen. As governor, he obviously had a feloniously flawed anti-terror policy. If he had been spending his time being an attentive governor, rather than a Trump mouthpiece, he could have stopped this attacker.

So there.
