Ted Lieu to DT: You are a real jerk for using mass shooting deaths to try to get your way


Ted Lieu
Hey
@realDonaldTrump
You are a real jerk for using mass shooting deaths to try to get your way on anti-immigrant legislation. STOP BLAMING IMMIGRANTS.

NOT IMMIGRANTS: The mass shooters in El Paso, Las Vegas, Tree of Life, Parkland, Charleston ...

Also it's Dayton, not Toledo.

I’m pretty sure I heard him say it. But he definitely thought it, and it was a pretty loud thought cause I heard it.

They (and the Republican party) are holding America hostage. Plain and simple.

Our Leader has spoken and conveyed his thoughts and prayers to those who were killed in Toledo. (Strangely sniffing -- like a coke freak -- while he spoke.)

Yes, Toledo! No, I'm not making this up. The man has no brain. In its place is a pile of hatred and bullshit.

He's barely conscious, reading like -- yes, as a couple of folks have said -- like a P.O.W., a beaten down and sleep deprived goddam P.O.W.

This is extremely disturbing. Makes me wonder if Pence has taken over.

1. Completely preventable mass shooting takes place;
2. Thoughts and prayers! Thoughts and prayers!!
3. People start to talk about preventative action;
4. Pundits insist nothing can be done;
5. Suddenly, the GOP steps forward: "Sure there's something do be done!! We can round up and eradicate all the _______s!!"
(applies to any crisis, really)

Please protect America by doing SOMETHING about the abomination in the WH. He is so incompetent, ignorant, crude, rude, vile, repulsive. Him, Pence, Moscow Mitch, Leningrad Lindsey, Gym Jordan, Bill "Low" Barr and several others need to be charged with TREASON. That performance by tRump was absolutely eye opening. What is he stoned out of his tiny mind on? Did Stephen Miller write that CRAP? I could almost hear him giggling like a schoolgirl in the background.
