Donald Trump Instagrammed a blunt response today to Hillary Clinton’s suggestion that the brash billionaire businessman and reality TV star might be somehow responsible for the horrific church shootings in Charleston, South Carolina.
“Wow–it’s pretty pathetic that Hillary Clinton just blamed me for the horrendous attack that took place in South Carolina. This is why politicians are just no good. Our country’s in trouble.”
“Mr. Trump believes that Hillary Clinton does not have any credibility when she blames words for violence. This is the same politician who lied to the world after she failed to take proper steps to secure the U.S. Consulate in Benghazi and falsely blamed the radical Islamic attack on a YouTube video. This is the same person who illegally deleted her emails after getting a subpoena from the U.S. Congress. It is totally inappropriate for Mrs. Clinton to exploit this terrible tragedy and use it as an opportunity to attack Donald Trump. She must be nervous about something.”

Wait for the debates and see how he avoids talking about them.
Trump is not going to President, he is a spoiler, like Perot.
He just announced, and already had the opportunity to KO Hillary. Watch the video of Trump trashing Hillary.
Wait for the debates and see how he avoids talking about them.
In your dreams. Ya see everything Trump mentioned in his 1 hour Presidential announcement speech was about nothing but scandals and how all of them have looted the American treasure while lining their pockets. Watch it.
Trump is not going to President, he is a spoiler, like Perot.
At that point, people like you and others on the tax paid government payroll will be relieved to see only 12 career bureaucrats left standing on stage.
I find comments like yours fascinating and extremely revealing.
As I said, Trump will run against the other GOP candidates and when he loses the nomination go 'Ross Perot'.
Would you mind bothering someone else?
Or maybe spend more time on the threads about the career bureaucrat candidates? They probable need a bit of support about now.
In fact since Trump gave his announcement speech a few days ago, the threads about the other candidates seem about as popular as public pay phones.
Thanks!
One thing to consider about Donald Trump, like him or not...
He has the money to win.
He has enough money to prevent GOP elite from starving him out of the race.
He has enough money to buy any amount of air time.
He has enough money to insure that he can’t be bought.
As long as he doesn’t go third party-maybe his heart really is in it.
He is saying all the right things.
Things that should have been said a long time ago.
He has enough money to get his message out there where it will be heard by most Americans.
This will be interesting.
Maybe he will just let us down like everyone else.
I’m going to wait and see what happens before I completely write him off as a stalking horse.
Because nobody else has much to offer.
I’m not jumping on the Trump express here by any means.
But it’s very refreshing to hear him saying the things that need to be said in such a direct take no prisoners manner.
We aren’t getting anywhere with all the people who tiptoe around our real issues.
If his heart really is in it, I hope he has good protection.
He will need it.
If he shakes up the establishment, they will come after him hard.
I going to ping you to an article. If you can spare about 3 minutes read the article and See#14 and 21.
BTW, nice fair summation.
I saw that.
He’s not even in the air yet, much less over the target yet and look at all the flak he’s getting.
2016 will be interesting if he is a serious candidate.
I will be looking forward to it.
For me, and it now appears lots of folks would likely go into near political depression if this somehow turned out to be concocted choreographed sham. Right now I'm not buying all that. No sale, until I see different for myself. What I do know based on what my ears heard in his speech, he seemed genuine, concerned, real, and very confident. But above all it was the truth, something those in D.C. have extreme difficulty with.
Career bureaucrat can't be forthright and simply state what they support or do not support. They're afraid of losing some votes or disenfranchising some special interest group regardless of what they support. So bad in fact the bureaucrats on the stage don't dare use terms like, "Illegal Alien". They're scared to death to say what needs to be said. Listen to what Trump said about the Saudis. You won't hear that anywhere else.
They won't say the truth in simple terms because it might affect THEM. It's all about them and their careers. Not the truth.
I hope he doesn’t turn out like all the rest.
All those up and comers everyone got behind.
Rubio, Santorum, Cruz, and a few others whose names escape me at the moment.
Seems like as soon as they get their seat they just become more of the same go along to get along don’t rock the boat types.
I don’t trust any of them any more and I’ve been thoroughly disgusted for quite some time.
I’ll be watching-but with a suspicious mind and a jaundiced eye.
I’m extremely disillusioned with everything political right now.
I don’t really expect Trump to make good on anything but if he does, Godspeed to him.
Maybe what we really need is a garbage collector! ;)
You keep posting to me so don't complain if you get a reply.
The politicians can't say the truth. It might affect their careers and legacy. That might suppress votes from those who hate the truth. It's about them and their careers, not about truth.
Truth sounds like hate to those who hate truth.
