We all know if suspect was Muslim the tweet would be a lot different. Such hypocrites

Say it loud Trump... Domestic Terrorism!

If the gunman’s name were “Satam Panjwani” instead of “Stephen Paddock,” the attack would be deemed “terrorism,” and America would find deep national resolve to address the scourge. But the shooter was a 64-year-old white man, so it’s a “lone wolf” incident, and “thoughts are prayers” are activated instead:

Trump
My warmest condolences and sympathies to the victims and families of the terrible Las Vegas shooting.
God bless you!

1. Yep, that is a highly controlled tweet with Kelly written all over it.

2. It was for the best. I have no doubts trump would have immediately tweeted something

incredibly stupid.

3. Didn't he?

"Warmest condolences" is a phrase for when Grandma passes on after a long illness, or the like.

Not a violent massacre.

5. I meant something more along the lines of calling this a terrorist attack or somehow linking it to

the NFL protests. Basically, anything that would fan the flames for his base.

7. The day is still young.

One thing about Trump: He never disappoints. We fully expect him to be worse every day, and he hasn't let us down yet.

4. I agree

100%

6. What the hell are 'warmest condolences'?

[Dave Starsky]

8. The opposite of "coldest don't-give-a-fucks".

Which is what his handlers know we are used to getting from.
