    A compilation of Trump's delusional and bigoted remarks about Muslims.



    ‘I think Islam hates us’: A timeline of Trump’s comments about Islam and Muslims

    https://www.washingtonpost.com/news...e-of-trumps-comments-about-islam-and-muslims/

    excerpt:

    "Nov. 16, 2015: Following a series of terrorist attacks in Paris, Trump said on MSNBC that he would “strongly consider” closing mosques. “I would hate to do it, but it's something that you're going to have to strongly consider because some of the ideas and some of the hatred — the absolute hatred — is coming from these areas,” he said.

    Nov. 20, 2015: In comments to Yahoo and NBC News, Trump seemed open to the idea of creating a database of all Muslims in the United States. Later, he and his aides would not rule out the idea.

    Nov. 21, 2015: At a rally in Alabama, Trump said that on Sept. 11 he “watched when the World Trade Center came tumbling down. And I watched in Jersey City, N.J., where thousands and thousands of people were cheering as that building was coming down.”

    Nov. 22, 2015: On ABC News, Trump doubled down on his comment and added: “It was well covered at the time. There were people over in New Jersey that were watching it, a heavy Arab population, that were cheering as the buildings came down. Not good.” (While there were some reports of celebrations overseas, extensive examination of news clips turn up no such celebrations in New Jersey.)"

    Team Trump's latest Clinton investigation ending with a whimper
    At Trump's urging, the Justice Department apparently scrutinized the Clinton Foundation and Uranium One. The probe "effectively ended with no tangible results."

    Team Trump's latest Clinton investigation ending with a whimper

    excerpt:

    "Well, yes, I imagine that's true. Assorted partisans are bound to be disappointed when they harbor irrational beliefs about a former opponent, and those beliefs are knocked down by evidence and scrutiny.

    That said, Republicans should probably be used to feeling frustration in this area. The FBI investigated Hillary Clinton's email server protocols and found no crimes. The State Department also launched a related multi-year investigation, which ended a few months ago with the same results.

    Now a Justice Department investigation into the Clinton Foundation, Uranium One, and the probe into the former cabinet secretary's email server is ending with a whimper, too.

    And yet, there was the sitting president, 12 hours ago, not only falsely accusing Clinton of corruption, but once again calling for her to be "locked up" for reasons unknown."

    Trump should consider doing his RNC nomination acceptance speech in North Korea or Russia.

    I think the biggest objection I have to the entire situation is sometimes I see people try to remove Trump policies from the President's personality. But it's the combination of the two realities that I find so totally objectionable!

    Decided narcissism + Wall idea = ?

    I find it odd.

    Lately, the trend seems to be to not notice that he isn't saying anything about George Floyd, making public announcements condemning racism, or making executive orders or speeches about Black Lives.

    The man diabolically fails at being any recognizable form of leader!

    Yes, which in a country of 330 million is a leaky tap, not a deluge

    I'll give you credit for one thing. You've got the art of deflection down.

    You are basically saying he should get up, do a few little speeches, make every one feel better in the hear and now, and that's the metric you use for a great leader or some how that's going to be more likely to get him re-elected

    You need the police for the domestic violence maggots, if the opposition starts talking about cutting police budgets or doing away with them all together, how is that going to effect the female vote in particular?

    Trump this, Trump that, but when the Dems start talking about removing police from the streets so women may more easily get raped, or there is no one to answer a domestic violence call....that's one important policy shift that could easily surprise them in the election. Mind boggling really

    And he tried to start wars with Iran, Iraq, and Syria. He pissed off the Iraqi leadership and the Palestinian leadership, and tried to cut some natural gas pipeline business for himself in Ukraine.

    If you stick to the bleach thing, you make you yourself sound like some idiot that when hearing the President postulating at a press conference about disinfectant treatment goes under the kitchen sink and drinks some bleach

    Only a moron would actually think that way

    They did it an area with a female police chief?

    Not that the folks that set up the autonomous zone are taking advice from anyone

    But, Man you do not want to get her on the news a month later saying reported rapes have gone up, or even a single woman was murdered, whole BLM movement will be toast if that happens

    Are "the Democrats" talking about this. Not Biden, not the DNC, not any of the congressional leadership. Pelosi and Schumer) are pushing a bill to promote transparency, crack down on the use of excessive force and ban controversial practices like choke holds, but so far no defunding of police. Only the progressive fringe is calling for defunding, and they should be resisted.

    Well they might want to get that "progessive fringe" under control pretty quickly

    Biden might want to go harder; which would require him to leave his basement and actually get some press somehow

    If you can believe Trump as no one has seen his tax returns that he promised to release but failed to do.

    Part of the currant oligarchy defined by owning more money than half of all Americans combined.

    I agree, Trump acts like a moron.
    Why would he make this statement in public?
    Not that it's the most coherent statement.
