Liberal New York Times columnist Paul Krugman suggested Friday that President-elect Donald Trump could have an incentive to allow or launch a 9/11-style attack on the United States once in office.

Krugman wrote that President George W. Bush came into office with questions surrounding his legitimacy that were “dispelled” by the Sept. 11 terrorist attacks. Krugman surmised that gave Trump “interesting incentives.”

The fact that it may stop future Krugman tweets is technically an incentive.

Actually, from what I’ve reading it seems more like Obama might start a cold war - he actually said they are going to do something to Russia.

Only a demented mind like Krugman’s could come up with that and keep a straight face.

“I think the door hit him in the head when it fell off...”

I’m glad you pointed out that his head had fallen off first.

Only a dirty rotten low down leftist scoundrel would think this way.

Krugman is despicable. Not going to add human being because it does not apply.

Wow.
For the last eight years we had an anti-American president who supported terrorists and criminals, and betrayed our allies, and this worthless piece of dreck is worried Trump might ‘allow’ a major attack?

Paul Krugman ‏@paulkrugman 3h3 hours ago

Thought: There was (rightly) a cloud of illegitimacy over Bush, dispelled (wrongly) by 9/11. Creates some interesting incentives for Trump

This is really scary and dangerous talk. Unstable people reading things like this can take action — and that might be their hope, the Creamer approach. I hope Donald Trump is well=protected and very careful.

Krugman is an economist for the NYTimes, which is rapidly going bankrupt. Makes one wonder if his economic advice is worthless, or if NYTimes management just did not listen to him, in which case he is irrelevant. In any event, when the NYTimes ceases to exist, hopefully we will not have to listen to this jerk any longer.

He is despicable indeed but let hang himself and the leftists with his own rope. The public won’t be fooled.

“When does freedom of speech end and sedition begin?”

That’s what I’ve been thinking.

Paul Krugman needs to be one of the NYT employees receiving a pink slip.
