Trump fires back at Clinton over Muslim ban: 'Ask Hillary who blew up the plane last night'

Donald Trump is firing back at Hillary Clinton

for saying his proposal to temporarily ban Muslims from entering the U.S. promotes terrorism.

“The fact that Hillary thinks the temporary Muslim ban, which she calls the ‘Muslim ban’, promotes terrorism, proves Bernie Sanders

was correct when he said she is not qualified to be President,” the presumptive Republican nominee's campaign said in a statement on Thursday. Clinton was critical of Trump’s call to ban Muslims from entering the country in an interview with CNN.

“When you run for president of the United States, the entire world is listening and watching,” she told CNN’s Chris Cuomo. “So when you say you’re going to bar all Muslims, you’re sending evidence to the Muslim world, and you’re also sending a message to terrorists. … Donald Trump is essentially being used as a recruiter for more people to join the cause of terrorism.”

Trump seized on the moment to fire off an attack that Sanders used against the former secretary of state in early April, saying she is unqualified to be president and linked the critique to the disappearance of a jet headed from Paris to Cairo.

So ... Okay, in this world of yours with a red sun, Hillary, famous for deriding “the vast right-wing conspiracy” is actually a hard-right militarist who’s been fooling us all for years in pursuit of her devious far-right ends?

And Mr. TRiUMPh is hitting with jabs without wearing gloves! He does fight for US hard and accurate.

When you put the pedal to the metal, PC just won’t be the right thing to hang your hat on. HRC will go down in flames just like a Target stockholder.

Good to see you back Vet.

I wish Nathan Bedford Forrest would check back in.
I read an interesting article on his screen namesake in the latest Handgunner magazine.
Forrest was mananimal badazz.

I know that some don’t like Trump but its SO nice to see a candidate for a change who isn’t afraid to SAY IT LIKE IT IS..someone with a backbone who doesn’t beg for the media and the left’s forgiveness. This is why Ive supported Trump from the beginning, he isn’t afraid to speak the truth..now sometimes I disagree with him but when he is spot on he is SPOT ON

The news reported the plane wildly changing heading and losing altitude with no radio contact including no MAYDAY radio announcement.

I imagine Trump knows a thing or two about aeronautics and surmised the obvious. He may have even spoken with his own 757 pilot about the situation.

Regardless, it appears he was correct in his assessment and subsequent remarks on the situation.

"Not really, Hillary is akin to a fascist. She craves total and complete power. Look at her actions as the First Lady. Hell, no one was as power hungry and wanting complete power...."

So - You equate fascist, power hungry totalitarians to Right Wingers?

sorry about that.
a billion here, a billion there..and pretty soon you’re talking about real money!

(I just checked with my banker and he says my account is only in the billions, not trillions yet. I am now so so sad....why did you have to inform me of the difference!?)

“...she is farther to the right than Trump.”

What the hell?

You need to explain that. This Hillary Clinton we’re talking about, not Margaret Thatcher.

The fact is that most politicians and their effete, housetrained journalists wouldn’t last one day in the average bluecollar work environment.

I worked 17 years on drilling rigs offshore. I understood sensitivity training. I knew if I did not do what my driller said to do, I was very sensitive to the fact he would fire me and perhaps kick my ass. I did what he told me to do. See sensitivity training does work! :)

Back away from the bong.

I was hoping real clear guy would share the bong. Most definitely high dollar weed! :)

"I thought I read that SHE said it was terrorism....after Trump said it. I’ll try to find it."

Exactly, Trump recognized it first, and that's why Trump is a leader and she is a follower.

[BunnySlippers]

She did. Now she is mimicking Trump.

[cpdiii]

I miss Nathan Bedford’s posts also. His home page is very educating and his posts are those of a very astute man.

[Pelham]

and I bet that's the only sort of 'sensitivity' that anyone displayed on those drilling rigs.

For a while I worked on a very multicultural crew (not a drilling rig). The Mexicans were the first and funniest at exploding anything resembling Political Correctness that the management tried to impose on us. They wouldn't have it, and being an Official Minority they managed to get away with it. The rest of us just tagged along for the ride. I guess we were lucky the whole crew didn't get sent to re-education camp.

Me too. I hope he recovers from his disappointment.

Only time will tell if one is a Cassandra, or a Chicken Little.

Hillary seems to think it was this dreadful, anti-Muslim youtube video which caused our lovable Muslim brothers and sisters all over the world to have this kind of heartfelt strong negative reaction, and caused the unfortunate disruptive incident on that EgyptAir flight 804 coming from Paris, France, where so many lovable Muslamic refugees have been welcomed with open arms, just like she (Hillary) plans to do for the USA.
