AT THE WHITE HOUSE AS TRUMP ADDRESSES THE BOMBER

No. Associating “nutcases” with their legitimate opposition (now enemies) is their pattern.

It only works if you let it.

guaranteed to generate sympathy for Democrats

the money quote, my FRiend

[SaveFerris]

Hey how ya doin’? I’m still hanging on. sigh

[papertyger]

It was guaranteed to generate sympathy for Democrats.

I SINCERELY doubt that.

[SaveFerris]

1) Gave them a talking point.

2) The liberal media are abuzz.

I hope it doesn’t work out that way but 1 and 2 are both correct.

[papertyger]

Have you learned nothing from PDJT?

None of that matters any more than we let it. The democrats are a fully known quantity now.

Have a little faith in regular Americans.

[SaveFerris]

Well they’re lit up. No doubt with more idiocy. I still think the R’s will perform well.

I remember people voting for Obama.

Twice.

I just hope enough R’s are motivated where it counts.

I’m doing what little I can......

[papertyger]

If our side can elect Trump, we can pull this one out.

Personally, I believe in Americans again.

[SaveFerris]

From your keyboard....

[Drew68]

He began by acknowledging the arrest of the bombing suspect, whom he did not name. Nor did he comment on the partisan dimension of the bomb story. He praised law enforcement for speedily solving the crime and denounced political violence.

And that's all he ever needs to say about what was essentially a bad prank.

[papertyger]

We have nothing to fear, but fear of the media.

Dude, that is so becoming my tagline....

[SaveFerris]

[SisterK]

Working crazy hours here. Feast or famine.
Bracing for a caravan that may or may not roll through my neighborhood.

These sure are interesting times, FRiend.

[reasonisfaith]

Deep state behavior is so easy to see through it’s pathetic.

[reasonisfaith]

No, antifa does things like sending bombs to people. But doing things like that is entirely separate from being a Trump supporter.

[reasonisfaith]

You’re falling right in line with Maxine Waters. She also wants to pin this on Trump.

“I think the president of the United States should take responsibility for the kind of violence that we’re seeing for the first time in different ways,” Waters said. “I think the president of the United States has been dog whistling to his constituency … and I think that they’re acting out, but they believe the president wants them to do and the way that he wants them to act.”

[reasonisfaith]

A warped viewpoint doesn’t fit with support for Trump.

[Henchster]

This is the image the leftist media wants you see:

The hat, the van stickers, the "registered Republican" bit. It all seems a little too perfect.

But just because he has been to rallies and wears the gear, doesn't necessarily make him a true supporter.

In the movie "In the Line of Fire" this guy sent lots of money to the President in hopes of getting close for a kill shot:

And who can forget this real-life whack-job who in "Taxi Driver" pretended to support Senator Palantine:

I'm not saying for sure the guy put up a false front, just don't be surprised if and when this story turns sharp, ahh... LEFT!

[papertyger]

You’re falling right in line with Maxine Waters. She also wants to pin this on Trump.

Don't be an ass. Demagogues like Waters are looking for problems to have, and people like you allow her have them by agreeing with her premise, but trying to posit exculpatory loopholes.

This is why Trump is a winner; ever since he gave out Lindsey Graham's cell phone number he's been letting the world know "I won't play the game by your rules. "Heads I win, tails you lose," in particular.

The only proper response to Waters and any of her doctrinaire devotees is BFYTW.

[papertyger]

No, antifa does things like sending bombs to people. But doing things like that is entirely separate from being a Trump supporter.

Why are you agreeing with the left. They have one (richly deserved) blip on the radar screen to bitch about, and you're so desperate to distance yourself from that one blip you act like a white liberal trying to prove he's not racist. I.e., you're giving validity to their premise instead of telling them "piss off, hypocrite."

What gets MY goat is you're here trying to keep US from telling them "piss off, hypocrite."
