Always.
About.
Him.
“The president, who made law and order a centerpiece of his presidential campaign, used the yearly tribute at an outdoor memorial near the Capitol to…”
“…undermine the DOJ, trash the FBI, and plead the Fifth in his own criminal investigation.”
President Donald Trump paid emotional tribute Tuesday
No he didn’t. Even the most cursory observance of Trump over the past 3 years shows he lacks any and all empathy towards fellow human beings. There was no emotion in his comments.
Trump made a rare showing of public empathy near the end of his speech by bringing onstage the elderly mother and other loved ones of a slain police officer from his native New York City.
That wasn’t empathy, he was using them as stage pawns to make himself appear better in the media.
Mission Accomplished apparently.
"Trump joked that he had promised not to reveal Adrianna Valoy’s age, but she climbed the stairs better than he did. "
A sentence which proves that no matter who you are, how hard you are trying or how much you loathe him, Trump is making all of us stupider.
AP, man. The journalistic equivalent of the laziest hack lounge band you ever heard. I’ll defend people who at least try, but you can count on these normalizing mediocrities to phone it in every time.
“The president, who made law and order a centerpiece of his presidential campaign,”
The president, who made law and order dogwhistles a giant racist centerpiece of his presidential campaign…
FIFY
IIRC the rate of police deaths on duty is about 1/3 of what it was in the early 1980s.
Folks, with FOXNews spinning and amplifying these events Americans buy into it.
In many cities more sanitation workers are killed than law enforcement officials.
So did George Wallace in 1968.
This from the fuckwit who used the BlueLivesMatter issue for campaign fodder then stood in front of the CIA Wall of Fame and bragged about his inaugural crowd and has used his power as POTUS to fire the head of the FBI and defame the top law enforcement officers of the country because they are conducting a legitimate investigation into his activities. Will any media point out this blatant contradiction or is it going to be all rah, rah, cops, rah rah trump coverage?
And it’s far from the first time he has used innocent people as pawns and actors for his carefully orchestrated stage appearances.
And that’s a crime against nature right there biggrau.
“So I promised that I wouldn’t tell you that she’s 90 years old but, you know what, she is really something, right?” he told the audience. “You look like 55 maybe, 55. Boy, I’ll tell you what. You got up those stairs better than I did.”
And then Chiselin’ Trump looked her over and said, “You’re in such good shape. She’s in such good physical shape. Beautiful.”
Violent criminals, we hate, we prosecute, we lock them up and throw away the key. Financial criminals, we appoint to the cabinet, we wine and dine, we make them president.
To be fair, only violent criminals of color.
