Blame to be had on both sides. Need I remind everyone that Obama saluted while holding a cup of coffee, and he used grey poupon on a hamburger. 

 
And with what happened early today -- that horrible, horrible attack in Pittsburgh -- I was saying maybe I should cancel both this and that," Trump said, referring to the rally and his earlier appearance at the agricultural convention. "And then I said to myself, I remember **** Grasso, a friend of mine, great guy. He headed up the New York Stock Exchange on September 11.

And the New York Stock Exchange was open the following day. He said -- and what they had to do to open it you wouldn't believe. We won't even talk to you about it. But he got that exchange open

Not bad, only off by five days. 

 
He's truth challenged. Its either a defect or purposeful. I guess either way, its a defect. He's defective. 
He just says whatever he thinks his supporters or the people in the room will want to hear or will justify his actions/positions. If it’s a true or not is irrelevant.

new Gallup Poll shows Trump dropping a week before mid-term election

last week: 44% approve, 50% disapprove (-6)

this week: 40% approve, 54% disapprove (-14)

 
Uh oh, you anti Trump guys aren't gonna like what happened in the NBC/WSJ poll this week-

President Trump's approval rating before the November elections has jumped to a higher level than former President Obama's ahead of the 2010 midterms, according to a new NBC/Wall Street Journal poll. 

The poll found Trump's approval rating at its highest level for that poll yet, at 47 percent. Obama's approval rating was 45 percent around the same time in 2010, according to a similar NBC/Wall Street Journal poll taken in late October 2010.

Hey buddy, just thought you might like to know that Trump's approval rating in the Gallup poll just dropped 4%.

That ties the largest one-week drop in Trump's entire presidency.

Wow. @PressSec won’t say whether @realDonaldTrump would suspend habeas corpus or posse comitatus in response to what he calls an “invasion.” Good Q from @stevenportnoy

:(

People are growing tired of him not talking any responsibility for anything he says. It's always someone else's fault and that is starting to get old.

Jim Acosta: are you willing to give us a list of who you/POTUS consider an enemy of the people?

Sarah Sanders: "I think those individuals know who they are."

Marvelous.

The pathological liar at the White House podium just said Trump was elected by “an overwhelming majority of voters.” The foundational lie of the Trump presidency.

How can they keep repeating this falsehood?

 
How bad is Fox News?

MATT DRUDGE✔@DRUDGE

A segment on Fox News this morning where hosts laughed and joked their way through a discussion on political impact of terror was bizarre. Not even 48 hours since blood flowed at synagogue? Check your soul in the makeup chair!

Because no one has immediately called them liars in the same shot.

So cowardly ..the president makes a very inflammatory and dangerous claim, but then neither he nor SS will back it up. 

Given the events of last week, this isn't amusing any more.

 
Trump Fan Convicted In Anti-Muslim Terror Plot Asks Judge To Consider Trump’s Rhetoric

Even Trump supporters know he fans the flames of hatred and divisiveness - and blame Trump for their actions...

“Trump’s brand of rough-and-tumble verbal pummeling heightened the rhetorical stakes for people of all political persuasions,” they added. “A personal normally at a 3 on a scale of political talk might have found themselves at a 7 during the election. A person, like Patrick, who would often be at a 7 during a normal day, might ‘go to 11.’ See SPINAL TAP. That climate should be taken into account when evaluating the rhetoric that formed the basis of the government’s case.”

Huh

 
Admit it. Republicans have broken politics.

It's interesting what is pointed out in the above video. Republicans began the fight, continue to fight, and continue dividing our country.

Media Bias? There is zero to very little. Republicans have changed the way they view the media thus creating a self-fulfilling resolution that it is biased. The only bias is how Republicans view things... recently.

The sooner McConnell goes, the better off we will all be.

 
Trump appeared on Laura Ingraham’s show tonight and whined that he was being blamed by the media for these “crazy people.”

He argued that when the Charleston church was shot up a few years back, Obama wasn’t blamed. 

Well that is true...

Fox News could not wait to accuse Obama of "politicizing" the shooting. The minute Obama offered thoughts and prayers, Fox jumped all over him.

Jon Stewart had a great segment exposing Fox's hypocrisy back in the day. (Full show here, or direct clip here but it has an annoying watermark).

Some of the soundbytes are just as relevant in 2018.

Nikki Haley has the same line. I don't think Haley or Trump get it.

I have struggled w/ what happened in Pitts bc it’s so similar to what happened in Chas. The country was very racially divided @ the time. We didn’t once blame Pres. Obama. We focused solely on the lives lost & their families. Have some respect for these families & stop the blame.

Do these people really believe the nonsense they say/post or are they just so caught up in Trump's gravity that they need to defend him no matter what.  Trump's constant campaigning itself sets him way apart from any other POTUS.  And those rallies are nothing but talking points and chants to fire up his one track mind base. 

 
Trump plans to sign an executive order that would remove the right to citizenship for babies of non-citizens and unauthorized immigrants born on U.S. soil, he said Monday in an exclusive interview for "Axios on HBO."

The move would also likely lead to another stand-off between the U.S. president and the courts, Axios reported.

"It was always told to me that you needed a constitutional amendment. Guess what? You don't," Trump reportedly said, declaring he can do it by using an executive order.

I am embarrassed for her.

Worries me what other “secret plans” he has that no one but him knows about. Constant abuse of executive power.

Good, it was a misinterpretation of a rule written when the country was new that makes zero sense as interpreted today. If you travel to any foreign country with your pregnant wife and she gives birth there, would you expect your baby to become a citizen of that country? Of course not.

Canada and Mexico?

The 14th amendment was ratified in 1868.

It exists in 30 other countries. And in a lesser form in about another 30. So while still in the minority, it is hardly rare

 
Despicable but I doubt he’ll ever do it. Just another ploy to get the base to vote next week. 

He also wants to change the subject again; I have to admit he’s very good at this. He wants the media to talk about this.
