Hey Media: Don't let Trump get away with it (re: "When the looting starts...")

READ THE WHOLE GODDAMN SENTENCE:

"I told [Gov. Walz] that the Military is with him all the way. Any difficulty and we will seize control, but when the looting starts the shooting starts."

It's unambiguous: Trump's "Military" will do the shooting.

The Miami Police Chief thing is a red herring. Trump is an ignoramus and can claim that he didn't know the origin of the phrase. Unfortunately the talking heads I have seen the past few hours have focused on that, not on the real context, which is right there plain as day in Trump's tweet.

He does so many dastardly things there isn't time to adequately address the latest one. By the time you do, he's already off committing a new crime and/or impeachable offense!!
