From the article: “With what happened early today, that horrible, horrible attack in Pittsburgh, I was saying, ‘Maybe I should cancel both this and that.’ And then I said to myself,...We can’t make these sick, demented, evil people important,” Trump said.

I don’t work on Wall Street. Don’t work for a brokerage. Don’t live near NYC. Yet I remember the market being closed for a few days after the attack. Why? Can’t say. But when I heard him say it I knew he was wrong. You know, if this was a once in a while thing, I could pass it off as faulty memory or something misstated. It happens with regularity. He’s now doubled down and has claimed he has the best memory. So put him with Hill and Obummer.
Actually the headline is false....He used the reasoning: And then I said to myself,...We can’t make these sick, demented, evil people important,” Trump said” to hold his rally.
The misstated fact was simply incorrect example to support that reasoning.
Really? That’s what you think he meant?
Gimme an Effin break.
Trump’s point stands, you cannot let evil people change the way you live, you cannot give them that power.
Yes, we need to not let terrorists, foreign or domestic interfere with life. But when using examples, use real examples.
Now THAT’s a point I’ll whole heartedly agree with. The media made it look EXACTLY like he lied. F them.
See? and that’s sort of why I’m annoyed with what he said in the first place.
When Obama was caught lying it was a mistake. When Trump makes a mistake, it is a lie.
He said his close friend Dick Grasso told the story of how it opened the next day.
I don’t care at all that a memory from 17 years ago was wrong. Big deal. I would still vote for Trump tomorrow even with such an “egregious”mistake on his record.
Your words are exactly what he should have said. Not a tall tale.
Is that true? About the toilet seat? Shaking my head.... not sure what to make of that.
Man, that’s a whole other level of paranoia.
“So put him with Hill and Obummer.”
That’s an amazingly stupid thing to say.
My words ARE the bulk of what Trump said. Go watch the videos.
Me too re: the voting. But I’d like to clean this garbage up. It makes him better. Not worse.
Q: Did anyone report to work there the next day? Were people on site though the exchange wasn’t open for trading? Just curious.
He should have stopped there without the tall tale. I guess he can’t help himself.
Queen Elizabeth not only travels with her own toilet seat as does Prince Charles, she takes her own favorite toilet paper. From the web:
The lady of the bed chamber, a position currently held since 1987 by Baroness Elton, née Richenda Gurney, has one very interesting task - She sees to it that the toilet seat used by HM Elizabeth II is placed over other toilets wherever she travels. Of course she may not does this personally. She just is the person who ultimately gets the splash back if something goes awry.
How’d you like to have that job? I wonder if the Queen’s toilet seat and toilet paper get their own seat in first class on her plane.
All claim to have great memories and being the smartest people. The same peas in the same pod.
I wonder if they disinfect the part that touches the public toilet?
Do you realise you are reacting exactly how the media wants you to react? You are missing Trump’s POINT - which is exactly what the fake news media wants you to do.
Trump’s POINT was clear, the media hates it and will do ANYTHING to manipulate people to miss it, which is why in the big picture the mistake is practically meaningless.
