Gitmo Prisoners ‘Thought It Was the End of the World’ on Election Night, Asked for Tranquilizers

BY: Chandler Gill December 1, 2016 10:53 am

Prisoners at the Guantanamo Bay military prison in Cuba “thought it was the end of the world” the night of the presidential election and asked their guards for tranquilizers and sleeping pills, CBS correspondent Margaret Brennan reported Thursday.

David Remes, the lawyer of one of the prisoners at Guantanamo, recounted to Brennan what his client told him about election night.

“He said that many detainees thought that it was the end of the world and felt terrible and that many detainees asked for tranquilizers, sleeping pills because they were so distraught,” Remes said.

Remes said he is afraid that once Donald Trump officially becomes president, the doors will “slam shut” and remaining detainees will not be able to be released.

Yes, when you have a REAL PRESIDENT, laws get obeyed and murderous terrorists don’t get a “get out of jail card” for political reasons. Obama will probably let them all out on his way out of the WH.

Remes said he is afraid that once Donald Trump officially becomes president, the doors will “slam shut” and remaining detainees will not be able to be released.

Remes is an attorney who represents a terrorist - why should he be afraid?

HA! MAGA!

I guess they were hoping Hillary would release them.
Trump won’t and they know it.

So the liberals are feeling angst over the reaction of Gitmo prisoners to the election results??? What the heck????

Another story recently expressed concern about Bradley Manning and the status of his gender bending hormone treatments, due to possible policy changes with Trump coming in. Geez... Liberals sure do worry a lot

Give them an OD of tranquilizers. Make them feel real good until they get to their destination in hell.

Trump keeps winning in many ways like, with the Islamic Jihadists under lock and key in Gitmo.

These formerly tough jihadists have become snowflakes like their liberal friends in America.
