If Trump’s statements were “crossing the line” then so have 95% (or more) of the mainstream media (especially the NYT) who have been feeding those lines to the public for 2 decades
I guess this makes Trump guilty of believing what the press writes, which I believe once he sees classified information will be an eye opener to him
BTW, Trump didn’t really “blame” Bush for 911 but when Jeb said his brother “made us safer” Trump, a New Yorker, incredulously pointed out that the WTC came down on Bush’s watch.
Granted Bush had but 9 months in office to read up on al Qaeda, to assess and prioritize the threats against us, and to reform and decompartmentalize Jamie Gorelick’s ruinous intelligence community walls
but he was the potus
In industry and in the military, when the ship goes down the Captain is responsible whether he caused it or not
Trump used the left’s canard that Bush lied (knowingly told a falsehood) about WMD in Iraq. Plenty of people besides Bush saw the same Intelligence and agreed with the various world spy agencies that said Saddam had WMD. For Trump to use such a calumny, we see that he is either profoundly ignorant of these events and the facts surrounding the war or that he has no shame in choosing a calumny. Neither one speaks well of his character and his capability to deal in good faith with others.
Bad analogy. The ship didn't go down, the ship was attacked. The Captain took immediate action to protect the ship and do damage control. You don't rate a captain on whether his ship was attacked, you rate him on his actions after the attack.

So you support someone who is so naive that he believes the mainstream media and you are satisfied that he won't learn the truth until AFTER he is elected President?
