Discussion: Walker: Obama's 'Absence Of Leadership' Played A Role In 'Anti-Police Rhetoric'

Discussion for article #240428

Let’s see; Obama praises police, condemns violence, repeatedly. Yet, somehow Walker can’t hear what he says.

Do you think Walker might have an issue distinguishing faces as well as rhetoric apart?

Poor Scotty–his campaign is imploding.

Yeah, Walker, if we only had a leader like you, there’d be none of this complaining about white cops killing and brutalizing unarmed African Americans, because I suppose you’d put all those uppity Black Lives Matter Negroes in their place.

Sorry, Scotty, but David Duke has already thrown his support to Drumpf.

Is Walker coming down on the side of “it’s fine for police to kill unarmed people”?
That’s seems a bit extreme.

Thick as a brick.

That and make sure there is no police union to complain.

That whole ‘Pigs in a blanket’ chant was a joke. It’s been reported as such in many medial outlets.

What happened was, the police officer leading the march started joking around with the protesters. Everyone was having a good time poking fun at each other.

In fact, when the chant got to 'fry ‘em like bacon’ the officer interjected by way of his squad car’s loudspeaker ‘Everybody loves bacon!’

Please don’t perpetuate the lie.

So the anti-union talk isn’t impressing anyone, and he’s trying to find a way to get out of the bottom of the polls.

Go home, Scotty. It’s over, although your state doesn’t seem concerned about your lack of leadership since you’ve been gone campaigning.

So Walker should be condemning all those White Power chants at the Trump rallies, right? After all, it’s “leadership” to call out every random thing people say on the streets, right?

No wonder this dork is tanking so badly so quickly. He and the GOP have rejected science, technology and demographics. It doesn’t matter what a president says about anything now days as long as the public is taking cell phone camera shots of abusive police actions and sharing them on the internet.

Nobody cares about ideological rhetoric from politicians when they can communicate freely with each other to arrive at their own conclusions. The Republican Party can’t deal with transparency. Conservatives are making themselves irrelevant. They are defining themselves as dictatorial vulture capitalists and cultural bigoted fanatics…when they aren’t acting like complete clowns.

Go ahead. Shut down the government and go home and pout while you say the world is falling apart and America is no longer great. Just give up like Palin. Nobody will miss you. Trump will finish you off for good and you have no idea how to stop him.

Without Trump, Walker’s slightly sub-average IQ would be a topic of constant conversation. But we spend so much time focusing on Trump’s cynical patronization of stupid people we overlook just how actually goddamn stupid many of the other seventy candidates in the Republican field are.

This year is on course to be the second lowest in number of officers dying in the line of duty since they started tracking the statistic in 1900.

This year is also on course to have the most people killed by police officers, ever.

So the whole premise of this question is flawed from the start. Its a right wing meme to counter BLM, nothing more.

The amazing thing to remember is that Wisconsin, supposedly an intelligent, progressive state, has elected this dope three times.

Facts are to Walker as cosmic dust is to lasagna.

I would also note that it’s been about six years since Walker has been running for POTUS … so I"m sure THAT has nothing to do with our nation going to hell in a Republican created handbasket.

AS long as we’re citing numbers, here are two more, 93%. That was the percentage of African Americans voting for Obama in 2012 and Scottie can only dream.
