True, but to be fair, President Obama didn’t have multiple mass shooters penning manifestos using language lifted directly from his speeches.

Donald J. Trump
@realDonaldTrump
“Did George Bush ever condemn President Obama after Sandy Hook. President Obama had 32 mass shootings during his reign. Not many people said Obama is out of Control. Mass shootings were happening before the President even thought about running for Pres.” @kilmeade @foxandfriends

1. K&R, Red Don etc is still ignoring the fact that he's stoking the racism, hate and terrorism

[Phoenix61]

2. "During his reign"

“Reign” ? Interesting choice of words. He really does want to be king.

[Wounded Bear]

3. Repubs want to rule, Dems want to govern...

[NewJeffCT]

5. pretty much true

I remember first hearing that associated with Reagan, and it's even more true with Donny Dollhands

[iscooterliberally]

6. I noticed that too. We need to rain on Trump's reign by reining him into a prison cell. n/t

[lunatica]

10. Oops! There was a slippage of his subconscious there

It kinda popped out while he wasn’t looking.

It happens a lot to liars. They forget and slip up.

[Salviati]

13. I almost want to sign back up to twitter to respond:

"Presidents don't reign, they serve." But it's not worth jumping back into the dumpster fire. Anyone else can freely steal that to respond though.

[FiveGoodMen]

14. Holy Shit!

Yeah, that word choice is revealing, isn't it?

[calimary]

16. Yes. King. Or emperor. Or in his case, maybe czar.

[PA Democrat]

22. I think we should refer to Trump as being "installed by Putin."

[Pacifist Patriot]

25. Leapt out at me. That is truly what he thinks the presidency is.

[ScratchCat]

4. Its time

For all living former Presidents to release a joint statement in condemnation of Trumps words and actions. Way past time, actually.

[murielm99]

7. I agree.

This cuts across all party lines. And what does Dubya have to lose? He is retired. What he will gain is respect.

[lastlib]

11. (well, I wouldn't exactly say "respect".......

...when you're talking about a war criminal who caused the deaths of more than a million people....)

[malaise]

28. Been saying this for some time n/t

[SCantiGOP]

8. I would blame Obama for Sandy Hook

If he had called children an Invading Infestation; and if he were 100% aligned with the NRA.

[SleeplessinSoCal]

9. love his description of himself.

Breakfast Media White House Reporter, comforting the afflicted
& afflicting the comfortable since 2008

[Pobeka]

12. I'll bet twit-head didn't pen this tweet. No way he could spell reign! n/t

[FiveGoodMen]

15. I'll bet Miller can spell it

[Pobeka]

17. yep! n/t

[Kaiserguy]

35. He can spell

rain but like you I'd bet he couldn't spell reign.

[Vinca]

18. If I had a dime for every time Trump has trashed former presidents at home and abroad . . .

[bigbrother05]

19. Damn, he's had 32 in the last month

None of them cited "Hope & Change" in a manifesto either.

[ChoppinBroccoli]

20. 32 Mass Shootings In 8 Years? Bitch, You've Overseen 215 In SEVEN MONTHS!

That would have been my response.

[SammyWinstonJack]

21. Nazi says what?

[gordianot]

23. Trump swallowed the Twitter bait like he always swallows the bait.

I do not remember Obama mentioning his name. This is one case where the shoe fits as well as his tiny hand in the glove.

[cwydro]

24. Exactly. Makes me happy to know he realized he was getting called out though!

It must be getting to him on some level.

[questionseverything]

33. that is what i thought...how did trump know obama meant him?

[qazplm135]

26. I'm sorry but

"Twitter comebacks" just ain't doing it for me anymore.

Neither are "Trump was just eviscerated by this tweet" posts.

Until this motherfucker is gone, all of this is just impotent rage.

[Mrs. Overall]

27. Then you should probably not read these types of posts if they frustrate you.

I'm not really sure that social media rage is always impotent.

Hopefully enough rage and political activism will lead to his removal via impeachment, resignation, or the 2020 election.

[qazplm135]

29. Twitter posts are in fact impotent rage

what's changed?

You want to post Twitter stuff...post voter registration. Post drives to buy voter IDs. Post ways to get youth involved.


Sick burns aren't going to do jack squat.

[Mrs. Overall]

30. This is a discussion board on a political website. DU members can post whatever they like as long

as it is pertinent to politics.

Sometimes the discussion that follows a "twitter impotent rage" post is interesting and enlightening.

There are also many posts on this discussion board that deal with voter registration, youth involvement, etc.

DU offers a big umbrella for political talk, so I won't be chastised for posting a "burn" that is obviously popular among the board's readers.

[qazplm135]

31. sure they can

as can I, which I did.

Where did I tell you that you can't post anything?

All I did was say what I thought about it.

So yes, you will be chastized, because as you said, DU members can post whatever they like.
You aren't special and you don't get a criticism free card.

[Mrs. Overall]

32. Oh, but I am very special.

[griloco]

34. Remember, EVERY TrumpNumber is inflated.
