Trump must not think NK will strike Guam. I thought he did issue a statement against the violence in Virginia. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Donald Trump mocked Barack Obama for not calling Islamic Terrorism by its name. Now HE must call White Supremacy Terrorism by its name.— Joe Scarborough (@JoeNBC) August 12, 2017 Donald Trump's entire plan for defeating ISIS was to call it out publicly.

caulfield12 Posted August 12, 2017 Share Posted August 12, 2017 (edited) At least three are dead right now....not sure which is more indicative of how far off the rails America has gone, this situation or North Korea? You know it's bad when you are way to the right of Orrin Hatch... Fellow Republicans slammed Trump's lack of directness and attempt to inject moral equivalence into the situation of chaos and terror. "We should call evil by its name," tweeted Utah Sen. Orrin Hatch, the most senior Republican in the Senate. "My brother didn't give his life fighting Hitler for Nazi ideas to go unchallenged here at home." "Very important for the nation to hear @POTUS describe events in #Charlottesville for what they are, a terror attack by #whitesupremacists," tweeted Sen. Marco Rubio, a competitor for the 2016 GOP presidential nomination. "Mr. President - we must call evil by its name. These were white supremacists and this was domestic terrorism," tweeted Sen. Cory Gardner, a Colorado Republican. CNN.com Edited August 12, 2017 by caulfield12 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

caulfield12 Posted August 12, 2017 Share Posted August 12, 2017 (edited) By late Saturday afternoon, a number of prominent Republican lawmakers including Sens. Cory Gardner, Orrin Hatch, Tim Scott, and Marco Rubio, along with House Speaker Paul Ryan and Rep. Cathy McMorris Rogers had condemned the actions of the white supremacists in far stronger language than the president. Gardner went as far as calling the incident “domestic terrorism.” "Mr. President - we must call evil by its name. These were white supremacists,” Gardner tweeted from his official account. Rubio also wrote on Twitter that it was important “for the nation to @potus describe events in #Charlottesville for what they are, a terror attack by #whitesupremacists." Trump’s response to the Charlottesville white nationalist demonstrations also showed the limits of Gen. John Kelly’s power as the newly-installed White House chief of staff. Kelly has spent the last two weeks trying to professionalize the decision-making process inside the White House, but he has been unable to steer Trump away from controversy, including his provocative statements on North Korea this week.

bmags Posted August 12, 2017 Share Posted August 12, 2017 I honestly am embarrassed to say this but it shocked me that was his statement. I sat there looking at it in disbelief. Like he's such a bulls*** artist that has shown he doesn't think anything is more than a tv show, and yet I thought he would give us something normal here, when there was a death. But no. And I can't believe it and I can't believe I can't believe it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
