Philadelphia mayor calls Trump a "tyrant" after White House snubs Eagles
CBS "News" ^ | June 5, 2018 | By ALEX SUNDBY

Philadelphia Mayor Jim Kenney called President Trump a "tyrant" who "is trying to turn this country into a dictatorship." The mayor made the comments on CBSN on Tuesday morning after the White House disinvited the Philadelphia Eagles from a celebration for the team's Super Bowl victory.

"Cities need to stand up in this country, and many mayors have stood up in this country against this tyrant," Kenney said. "He is trying to turn this country into a dictatorship by ignoring the courts and by saying and doing what he wants, by ignoring the Department of Justice ... and in the end this will all come to a conclusion, and it won't be a good ending for him."

Kenney told CBSN's Vladimir Duthiers that the president "allies himself with strongmen around the world" and seemed to be "more comfortable" with Russian President Vladimir Putin and North Korean leader Kim Jong Un.

WOW what a coincidence!!! I was just reading the article posted below this, in which it says that Chuck Schumer used the word “dictatorship” and now this!

That must be on the list of key buzzwords for the MSM and DNC this week.

Another really frustrated Democrat.

In other words, another sign that President Trump is winning.

Trump has ignored zero court rulings, not nor is he a dictator, and I and think Kenney would be far more comfortable in a communist country than Trump.

The mayor has nothing to be proud of. Half the city is a no-go zone.

I thought this was all about the Hotel California Eagles.

Glad to read it isn’t.

I could care less about these eagles. The real eagles (birdwise) should not be so insulted by such a group.

Rename them after something lower.

To a liberal, a tyrant is anyone who disagrees with you.

Excellent catch.

The Dems and media propaganda bureau (MSM) all get a hive mind experience going:

Trump is psychologically unbalanced and psychologists agree,Melania is being abused (recent Rolling Stone abomination),Hamilton electors will revolt in Electoral College,nobody got more than 25 cents each in the tax deal and so many more.

All of them orchestrated with key lines suddenly coming into the tiny braincases of these leftards.

As long as conservatism doesn’t establish itself within all U.S. cities, there’s going to be major problems within all U.S. cities.

The word is that the "Eagles Snubbed the President" by cancelling their visit at the last minute and wanted to reschedule for a time when the President wouldn't be at the Whitehouse. The Prez turned the tables on them and cancelled the invite completely.

With all of the abortion, you would expect at least 1 % decline every 5 years since Roe V Wade.

By now the American Black population should be down to about 8% and falling, yet it's not, ENTIRELY due to TAXPAYERS being extorted to support welfare programs which encourage high birth rates among that population.

Wonder who's pulling those strings?

Scratch the surface and IT ALL BECOMES CLEAR.

In 1865 there were 31 million Americans of which 13% were black slaves.

The percentage of blacks in America has remained consistent, although the total population of both groups has increased by a factor of 10.

It is American taxpayer dollars confiscated by the Federal Government and redistributed to blacks that has enabled this non-viable sub-group to keep pace.
