Shortly after news that an Egyptian airliner was lost at sea, the presumed GOP presidential nominee took to Twitter and exclaimed that Islamic extremists had struck again.
Given what he knew at the time, his comments were not based on any facts whatsoever. It was pure speculation. That's fine......unless you are interviewing for the most important job in the world.
A day or so passed and the cause for the plane's disappearance was still unknown. That didn't stop the intrepid Mr. Trump from taking the stage and stating that he is 100% certain that the plane was blown out of the sky by Islamic terrorists.
He may as well have flipped a coin. He spoke.....and continues to speak about this tragedy.....without knowing the facts.
Now....we STILL don't know what caused this plane to crash. No organization...over 100 hours on....has claimed responsibility. None of the debris found thus far tells us much. So...a wise person will withhold judgement.
My take.....Mr. Trump has not displayed wisdom in this case. Has he?
