Why Does Trump Stoke Fear?

London Mayor: UK Shouldn't Host Trump On A State Visit



I agree!

What would you prefer he stroke?

Confidence. Ability. Dignity. Honesty. Competence. Intelligence. Unity. Articulation. Knowledge. Experience. Thoughtfulness. Maturity.

You must’ve forgotten love and beauty that will save the world as some guy promised almost two hundred years ago. It’s a shame though it’s still unsafe and people like you keep peddling that pacifistic crap. I wonder how many hours would islamic terrorism or islam itself have lasted in a medieval England, post WW II Mccarthyist America or Stalin’s Russia? Japan doesn’t have problems with islamists. You know why? Islam there is prohibited by law.

Do you value fear mongering over confidence? Over ability?

We'be yet to see maturity from Trump and his supporters.

Why are snowflakes so easily frightened?

Lefties aren't the ones afraid of everything.

Here's a good example of how easily they're triggered.... lol

Confidence? Okay then, let’s hold our hands together and shout out loud our confident no to bad people.


Lisa: Mom! Mom! You gotta help! They're cooking kids in the school cafeteria!

Marge Simpson: Listen, kids - you're eight and ten years old now; I can't be fighting all your battles for you.

Bart Simpson: But, mom!

Marge Simpson: Nobuts! You march right back to that school, look them straight in the eye and say 'Don't eat me'.

Terrorists Want People Afraid. Trump’s Alarmist Tweets Spark More Fear.

The president’s response to the London attack leaves terrorism experts perplexed and worried.

WASHINGTON ― On Dec. 19, 2016, after a failed asylum-seeker inspired by the Islamic State drove a truck into a Christmas market in Berlin, killing 12 and injuring 56 others, former President Barack Obama offered condolences and condemnations.

Through a spokesman, he sent “thoughts and prayers” to the German people. The next day, he called German Chancellor Angela Merkel and pledged counterterrorism and law enforcement assistance. After that, publicly, he largely moved on.

On Saturday, five and a half months later, another ISIS-inspired attack took place, this time in London, when a van drove into pedestrians on London Bridge and the perpetrators then jumped out and stabbed people at nearby restaurants. Seven people were killed and 48 injured.

In the aftermath, President Donald Trump offered a wholly different approach than his predecessor. He accused London’s Mayor Sadiq Khan of downplaying the threat, using an out-of-context snippet of Khan’s remarks. In a series of four tweets, he used the London tragedy to tout his executive order banning travel from some predominately Muslim countries, which is pending Supreme Court review after several courts ruled it’s likely unconstitutional. He made an unclear point about the absence of a gun debate after an attack in which the perpetrators used knives and a truck. And he insisted that people should be alarmed.

That Trump responded this way wasn’t a surprise. After the attack in Germany, he had declared that “Islamist terrorists continually slaughter Christians in their communities and places of worship as part of their global jihad.” And while German police were still piecing together clues about the attack, he called for “these terrorists” to “be eradicated from the face of the earth.”

What troubled counterterrorism experts is that Trump’s approach as president hasn’t evolved. The patented alarmist response to terrorism attacks that he deployed in the election may have had political benefits to his campaign. But these experts view them as largely counterproductive to the goal of limiting the effectiveness of terrorist attacks.

“Terrorism only works if people are terrified,” said Clint Watts, a former FBI special agent. “And it seems like Trump’s comments, above all, seek to terrify.”

After a terror attack, world leaders should be objective, to the point, and focus on letting the public know when they are safe and when they are in danger, Watts said. “[Trump] does the opposite ― he creates confusion, he blurs lines, he makes people more fearful when they don’t necessarily need to be.”

There is no doubt that Trump needlessly stokes fear with his confusing and misleading statements. I honestly believe Trump is mentally ill - but at a minimum he is childish and immature. He is certainly not presidential material. I worry about his judgement when confronted with a major crisis - and I'm not comforted by the quality of people around him or their ability to control him.

What's amazing is that you're more afraid of Donald Trump than you are of a bunch of people who want to cut off your head because he points out that there are people that want to cut off your head! Duh?

Trump wants fearful people because he can then be the Protector against that which is causing fear and anxiety............its not just terrorism...he tells the Rubes he will protect them from joblessness and loss of Cultural dominance in a diverse Society....

 

[MarathonMike]

It is correct that Lefties aren't afraid of everything. When you live in a fantasy world where open borders and Kumbaya solves everything, what is there to fear?

 

[jknowgood]

His policies are very bad for America...
-He wants to cut help for the poor that people rely on like medical care and food stamps that feed people. A lot of these people work believe it or not.

-His science and educational policies weaken this country.

Rewarding the rich is exactly what he said he wouldn't do.

Please tell me his exact science and education policies.

 

[mamooth]

Why does Trump stoke fear?

For the same reason ISIS does. Two sides of the same coin, conservatives and ISIS, trying to gain power through terror.

The fear tactics work on low-intelligence cowards, as this thread demonstrates. Look at all the Trumptards here begging for DearLeaderTrump to save them. None of 'em have a spine, so they're all cowering in dark holes, hoping for a stern daddy-figure to direct their lives. In contrast, the liberals are all out living, unaffected by the fear tactics.

 

[Pogo]

Why Does Trump Stoke Fear?

Oh that's easy. Same reason television does --------- it draws attention.

And of course that's as deep as his permanently-stunted infantile mind can handle.

He does not inspire fear in me. I learned NOTHING NEW FROM HIM

I did. I learned what a fucked-up world Narcissistic Personality Disorder is.

 

[whitehall]

You almost gotta laugh that the left supported Bill Clinton's plan to bomb a defenseless country (while 9-11 terrorists were in flight school in Fla) which was no threat to the U.S. after he was caught with his pants down but they criticize President Trump's legitimate concern over the escalation of terrorist attacks.

Apparently Canada is feeling the fear. It has been reported tonight that Canada plans to boost military spending amid concerns they can no longer depend on the United States for defense under Trump.

Canada to make 'substantial' boost to military spending

Trump has some very rough edges, no doubt about that. I voted for him because there was no legitimate alternative. I don't do twitter and I wish Trump would put the damn phone down. That being said, his core messages, America first, be it trade deals, tax payer sponsored defense of countries that don't like us, secure borders, etc. resonates with many people. I am hopeful he is capable of learning the nuances of DC politics. Maybe the DNC will take note of his success and Hillary's defeat and moderate their radical tone.

Two Minnesota brothers with ties to Middle East are arrested after police find 'bomb-making materials, guns and ammunition in their car

This one just got out of jail on a weapons charge.

The elder brother has been charged with a single weapons felony and is being held in the Hennepin County Jail on $200,000 bail.

The younger one got virtually nothing.

Majid has already been released and is facing misdemeanor charges, including disorderly conduct. The offense in Minnesota carries a maximum punishment of 90 days in jail or a $1000 fine.
