Trump Tries To Distance Himself From ‘Send Her Back’ Chant At Rally | Talking Points Memo

He just stood there smiling and listening for 13 seconds. Yeah, that was disapproval and correcting his audience.

I see opportunity. I’m sure The Squad does as well. Run with it ladies, it’s a winner!

ETA: and jazz it up with:

I, Too
Langston Hughes

I, too, sing America.

I am the darker brother.
They send me to eat in the kitchen
When company comes,
But I laugh,
And eat well,
And grow strong.

Tomorrow,
I’ll be at the table
When company comes.
Nobody’ll dare
Say to me,
“Eat in the kitchen,”
Then.

Besides,
They’ll see how beautiful I am
And be ashamed—

I, too, am America.

More distraction and misdirection. Now cable news will analyze whether he tried to stop the chant, say that he didn’t, blah blah blah. When, God forbid, one of his rabid supporters takes a shot at Rep. Omar, he will use the same defense as O’Lielly did when he incited the murder of Dr. Tiller.

You’ll never convince me these are spontaneous chants, there’s someone from the Trump Campaign organization in the crowd getting the chant started. Or this is primed before they go on air by whomever warms up the crowd.

So no, Trump can’t distance himself from this, this IS him.

tRump’s just practicing for his deflections to Epstein for his raping of underage girls.

I am NOT suggesting this.

I am merely observing that the proper ratfucking technique here would be to have someone at every Trump rally, who’d start the chant.

Disavow it, my ass.

Trump: "Are you going to believe me or your own lying eyes’?
Let’s hope he reaps the whirlwind!

Fake News edited out the part where he said “Please stop saying that”. Yup.

Trump feels like this is an apology on his part, and he is now boiling with rage. He backed down, retreated, like a dog. Clock’s ticking. Anybody placing bets on how he’s going to erupt in the next 36 hours, or at what target?

Now I can’t be 100% positive how Mom is going to react there… but I did try this excuse with my Mom after hitting my little sister, and I imagine that little guy is about to go pick out a nice stick off the tree in the back yard.

Maybe he’ll fire Wilber Ross’ nose hairs. Or deny knowing Epstein. The possibilities are endless.

Next, tRump to Epstein: “I’m not the rapist! You’re the rapist!”

It’s a good sign that he didn’t double down, cuz it means he knew he’s gone too far. That’s exactly why Dems shouldn’t let him get away with it. Go get him.

If you listen closely, before Trump finishes his remarks, the chant has started. Then he pauses and let’s it come up to full volume. And then, just before he speaks again, it stops.

In my mind, I think I can see the likes of Brad Parscale or some other Trump goon on the side prompting the crowd, and then giving them a sign to stop.

He cannot get away from this just by lying, again, and again, and again. I am waiting for the AD’s come this election season with Trump saying any number of nasty things. Let him speak his vile, and them have the VO announcer add, “Is this really what makes America Great?” Vote *******
