He said it in 2016. It was a jab at Hillary. He did stuff like that his entire campaign.



Maybe it was. It's a subtle jab, though, and he's as subtle as a hand grenade. Show me another example of a tweet where he sarcastically mocked someone and didn't let on.

Just because the courts ruled on this matter does not mean the demagogue in chief cant appeal to the rednecks for votes based on an unamerican point of view.
He's psychopathic. Next he will incite to violence on the same topic. Betcha.

For now. But that Ruling can be Overturned, Reversed or whatever they're calling it at SCOTUS. That Ruling is not etched in marble and eternally immutable.


True. But the chances of that ruling getting overrruled is slim to none.

I am guessing you feel the same about Hillary Clinton, then? She introduced a bill to make it illegal using close to the same consequences that Trump did.

Hillary is a demagogue?
She tries to appeal to rednecks?
She has an UnAmerican point of view?
She's psychotic?

Let's say he was not mocking Hillary. Do you denounce her for introducing a bill that mirrors what Trump said?

How convenient for Trump that every stupid thing he says can be covered by "just trolling."

Yeah he was quoting Hillary all right. LMAO
quote:

"We love our flag, and we don't like it when we see people ripping up our flag and burning our flag," Trump said in Fayetteville, N.C., the latest stop on his "thank you" tour.

quote:

"We don't like it. And we'll see what we're gonna do about that, OK? We're gonna see," he said. Trump sent shockwaves last week when he suggested that flag burners should lose their citizenship or spend a year in jail.

More contortions folks. Please

have you read the bill she proposed? Do you think she is an idiot for proposing it?

The left is criticizing Trump for saying that. I get that. I haven't seen a single person say anything about Hillary saying almost the exact same thing. Was she:
Anti-First Amendment?
A demagogue?
Psychopathic?

All of these have been ascribed to Trump in this thread, so I am guessing that you all feel the same about Hillary, since she said almost the exact same thing...and even introduced a bill supporting this several years ago.

I was curious if any on the left could actually say anything negative about Hillary. At least you have some integrity.

However, for me the difference is this....Trump was giving his opinion. She introduced a bill. There is a big difference.

They're both populists.

It's not surprising that each says and does moronic shite all the time depending on their audience.

That's the least of what I denounce her for. Although, her bill had some language about intimidation so I'm not sure what she was really getting at.

The mental gymnastics come from someone inferring that he said the 1st Amendment didn't protect flag burning.

Let's see where you stand. Did he mention the 1st Amendment anywhere in the tweet, or did he express his opinion?
Geez the left is triggered, trolled and teased at the drop of a tweet.

The intimidation language would protect burning a retired or damaged flag.

Why is this board rehashing old tweets from last year that's not currently in the news cycle and the President hasn't said anything like that in the past few months?
