Nobody blasted Obama when he dithered about condemning the Dallas police shooter, waiting for the motive to be determined, even though the police had already determined the motive and the motive was irrelevant to the fact that there were five dead cops on the ground.
I still say the best response to this nonsense would be that at least the president did not make up complete garbage about a terrorist attack and deliberately lie to the American people to cover it up.
Maybe President Trump should blame the whole mess on a video!
