Trump refuses to lower flag for the massacre of a newspaper staff. Well of course.

Trump declines request to lower flags in memory of Capital Gazette shooting victims

"Obviously, I'm disappointed, you know? ... Is there a cutoff for tragedy?" Buckley said Monday afternoon. "This was an attack on the press. It was an attack on freedom of speech. It's just as important as any other tragedy."

-------

No it's not. Trump has been calling the American free press the enemy of the people.

He's almost right.

The Free Press has been enemies of authoritarians, despots, liars, dictators and demagogues for as long as there has been a free press. Of course that doesn't sit well with Trump. For obvious reasons.


People die every day. So what did these journalists do that deserve honors usually only given to military heroes?
Not a damn thing.

Not a damn thing.

They died because they were journalists. No other reason. They weren't even involved in what the crazy guy was mad about.

Bullshit, Bulldog. The guy had an axe to grind and the victims were in the wrong place at the wrong time. Don't try to make it political.

Are you saying they did have something to do with why he was mad? Those people didn't even work there any more. He was attacking the newspaper. Trump attacks newspapers every day.

He tried to sue the paper in 2012 and it was dismissed. Only an idiot like you would try to tie this to Trump. You are such a loser.

Obama Ripped for Not Honoring Tenn. Victims; Congress, Trump Lower Flags

You do see how this kind of political psychological warfare works, don't you? Instead of American unity, you seek a divided citizenry. Instead of rallying the American public behind causes vital to American lives and posterity, you would prevent solutions. Instead of respecting your President, you would decry his character at every opportunity, and see him brought down along with our nation herself.

After 8 years of not respecting the president, all of a sudden everyone is supposed to respect the president. How fucking convenient.

The most disrespectful thing I see is that the political system doesn't obey the wishes of the people.

I'm not every talking about the presidential elections of Trump and Bush.

No country in the world would end up voting 98% for only two political parties if they felt free to vote for whoever they want to represent them, and get that wish granted.

Proportional Representation is that wish, when 30% of the people vote for one party, they get about 30% of the representation.

In the US, the Republicans and Democrats would, under normal circumstances, get less than 66% of the votes in Congress, other parties would be there to represent other views. But instead they get 98%, like a dictatorship.

And he didn't work up the courage to do it until Trump and his violent supporters helped him.

Not even close. They died because they ran screaming or hid under their desks. Those people had the same right to arm themselves that anyone else in this country has.
 
Butt hurt pink pussy hat Moon Bats.

If you little snowflakes think it is such a tragedy that Trump won't lower the flag then just put on your silly little pink pussy hat and then go outside and howl at the sky.
 
How many soldiers have died in in the war on terror?

If they don't get the flag at half mast, journalists sure as hell don't get it.

"Violent supporters"? Like the Bernie Sanders supporter who fired 70 rounds at Republican Congressmen playing baseball?
