Sure. Clearly the only reason riots are happening is because Trump wasn't clear enough in his Tweets. Terrribe, terrible president.


That's not what I'm suggesting and you know it. Don't play stupid. Even though you are a lot of times.

I'm waiting for them to ask him why he called the blacks thugs, when he was talking about the looters.


Trump-"Are you saying it was only blacks looting? Because I saw all races out there looting."

They set themselves up for that one. Let’s see if they step in it.

Then you'll have to tell me the president is supposed to magically do to stop rioters. Here's a clue... people willing to burn down their own neighborhood... don't care about Trump's tweets.

Nope. Poor leadership is what you saw from Biden today. A well scripted feel good speech full of feel good platitudes, and completely empty of any tangible plan for concrete change. But in SJW world it’s only words that matter....chanting and carrying signs leads to real change don’t you know...

Obama couldnt pass up the opportunity to stereotype the entire fricking country as racist in his statement today. Not sure why hes even making statements about stuff like this when his hometown is washed in black blood.

There is dishonesty on both sides on this issue. Let's be consistent.

Nope.

The phrase “shooting starts when looting starts” goes back the late 60s, when community leaders begged for looting to stop, because it could escalate tensions and result in harm

He told us today what he meant, just like I knew he would have to do, because the way he worded the tweet absolutely left open the interpretation that the left predictably ran with.

I'm saying it's dishonest to pretend that you didn't realize the wording of the tweet made its meaning ambiguous.

Look. You're going to have to stop being a piece of shite and listen for at least 1 minute if you're going to get this.

When there are cities burning to the ground it's probably not best to put out some ambiguous statement that many people might think would involve the government mowing down looters. Do you think that does ANYTHING to help calm the civil unrest? Of course not. It's a stupid thing to tweet out.

Let's not pretend that because someone could misinterpret his words that his words were "ambiguous". It's why context is important and he provided the context to understand what he was saying without clarification.

You're the one throwing out the personal insults.

His tweet was no more ambiguous than your original post. Otherwise, the remainder of your quote simply agrees with me. . This isn't a leadership problem as you claimed.
