Jacob Blake’s Family Has ‘No Interest’ In Meeting Trump: ‘This Is Not A Photo-Op’ | Talking Points Memo

Cadet Bone Spurs, such a brave and tough honcho, is encouraging and openly praising violence from those on the right. Now his little suck-ass sycophants are getting in on the act bigly. Johnson, the cowardly, unstable senator from Wisconsin, said citizen soldiers should mobilize to overwhelm rioters. Now how can any of this go wrong?

This family has so much more class than the “president” of the United States!

Chiselin’ Trump will have the Rittenhouse family driven to Kenosha for that photo op, up I-94.

I was assuming he would go there. Maybe you’re right, but either way, they are doing a meet and greet today.

Count on it.

Not sure why, but he’s coming into town from Waukegan, IL. Hmmm…Illinois…who do we know in Illinois he might meet with? You know, the county seat of Lake County, IL where Antioch is located?

When he came here for his big Snap-On production, he came down from Milwaukee.

Oh, and he’ll motorcade right past the end of my street. I’d go out and flip him off or hold up an appropriate sign, but with my luck I’d end up on TV and get fired. Oh, well…

Any violence right now is on trump’s watch, not Biden’s or democrats… trump is the one stoking it. He could shut it own with a speech about healing … but it’s a campaign tactic now to heartlessly use people’s lives as chips in a callous attempt at reelection. That is all we are to him. Numbers on a page. Cardboard cutouts. “it is what it is” “I take no responsibility at all.” This is what donald does not see…

If Trump wants to be the Healer in Chief perhaps he will condemn those who bring weapons to demonstrations, and promote harmony in addressing our differences. But nobody around him will suggest that, and he sure won’t think of it himself. It’s counter-intuitive to the boy.

Biden said it yesterday and, for every time Trump says otherwise, Biden needs to say it again four times.

Trump sends the family his “best regards”.

But who would want the best regards of one who sent his “well wishes” to an accused child rapist enabler?

According to Stormy…he could USE a big snap-on.

Actually, Antioch is almost directly west of Kenosha about thirty minutes. Kenosha being just north of the state line, Antioch just south.

That was so disgusting.
And a reminder that the “I’ve got mine, too bad for you” voter comes in many guises.

Nope, they won’t go and he won’t take the chance they stand beside him and accuse him - they are not trained to obey like his people.

This is just part of Trump’s campaign for re-election. Unfortunately for the family, he attempted to get mileage out of their grief.

He wasn’t there to meet with them. He was there for footage of American Carnage 2.0 for his campaign ads and to bask in the adoration of the police unions.

Maybe his rage at being snubbed by the Blake family will turn into a pardon for Rittenhouse? I’d hate to think even this narcissist would do such a thing, but I think that about most everything he does already.

Rittenhouse is facing state charges for murder and related crimes. The transporting arms across state lines, etc is a background tune to the big picture. Don’t ascribe to him powers he doesn’t have…

He never lets that stop him! :slight_smile:

But yes, thank you for pointing out that it’s state charges. I thought there were some federal charges involved, but I guess that tells you why IANAL.
