Tuesday’s cover of The New York Daily News depicts President Trump shooting Uncle Sam in the head after his jaw-dropping summit with Russian President Vladimir Putin.
The cover of Trump’s hometown newspaper shows the president holding the hand of a shirtless Putin while holding shooting the classic symbol of American democracy on 5th Avenue in New York, a nod to Trump’s infamous 2016 claim that he could shoot someone "in the middle of 5th Avenue" and not lose support.
“I have the most loyal people, did you ever see that? I could stand in the middle of 5th Avenue and shoot people and I wouldn’t lose voters,” he said during a campaign event.
The cover is set for the day after Trump’s highly anticipated summit with Putin in Helsinki, Finland, caused immense backlash after the president contradicted the U.S. intelligence community and refusied to condemn Russian meddling in the 2016 election.
“My people came to me … they said they think it’s Russia," Trump said. "I have President Putin, he just said it’s not Russia. I will say this: I don’t see any reason why it would be” Russia.
“But I have confidence in both parties," he added.
The summit came just three days after the Justice Department indicted 12 Russian intelligence officers for their alleged roles hacking the Democratic National Committee during the election.
Speaker Paul Ryan (R-Wis.) said Trump "must appreciate that Russia is not our ally,” and Sen. John McCain (R-Ariz.) called the press conference “one of the most disgraceful performances by an American president in memory," among multiple other critical comments from Republicans.
Fox News, CNN and MSNBC correspondents also tore into Trump for the press conference, with Fox's John Roberts saying the "consensus" is that Trump “threw the United States under the bus.”
Democrats ripped Trump's performance "pathetic" and "disgraceful."
Geez... this is too pathetic even for them...
But wait a minute. Isn’t this inciting gun violence? I thought the Daily News hated guns?
I think they’re following a script written quite a while ago. It’s not turning out so well for them, but they’re sticking with the plan, come what may.
TRUMP JUST SIGNALED TO THE IRANIAN PEOPLE THAT WE WILL SUPPORT THEM OVERTHROWING THE GOVERNMENT
Watching Trump on Hannity he’s just fine. Falling for the democrats’ predictable response to this summit is very foolish
Did they write this before or after he met Putin?
As opposed to Obunghole’s pal William Ayers shoving explosives up Uncle Sam’s arse?
Of course Demos ripped it. Putin made an accusation regarding Hillary Clinton’s campaign receiving 400 million taken out illegally from Russia. LOL!
Well we’ve been saying for a year Trump must fire Rosenweasel he didn’t so here we are. The little bastard hijacked the Summit with his little show Friday and Trump walked right into the trap. The only question is how much damage. I watched it today and l am shocked at the hysteria l keep asking myself if l saw the same thing these people did.
same LW rag that posted the fake picture of the child separated from her parents- which of course wasn’t true...
The Hannity interview was done before the S*itstorm hit.
Still Trump was fine. That’s reality.

The left is so funny. They dedicate their party to destroying and replacing America with something unrecognizable, because of their hatred for all that America is and has stood for (and their condescending disgust at regular, everyday Americans). So, finally, we have a president who is extremely pro-America and who stands up for the interests of the little Americans the left looks down on, and what do the silly leftists do? They attack his patriotism.
We are truly in Orwellian times. The left insists that war is peace, ignorance is strength, and that 2=2=5. And a lot of their followers never question any of it.
You want to see pathetic? This filth from the New York Times. America lost it’s mind today.

Trump walked right into the trap

I don’t see it that way. I thought the presser was good and enjoyed Wallace being shut down by Putin afterwards. Trump got Hillery exposed on the 400,000 illegal bucks. Now let’s see that case opened against her! As far as the hysteria by all the anti Trumpers, we found out who were a few more. The anti Americans are under the bus, not the loyal American people.
Sorry, add three more zeros.

Agree 100 %
We see who walked into the trap....
