God forbid, what happens if and when there's a terrorist attack and Drumpf politicizes it ?

It is unimaginable to think about what would have been his response on 9-11.

1. I hope I'm sooo wrong about this...

but I have a deep gut feeling this is setting the stage for a false flag attack. If "they" were able to create an incident that had the appearance of a terrorist attack it would embolden our current leadership. A real "see I was right" moment moving lesser thinking members of our populace to embrace actions and ideals more fervently than they do now.

15. That's what I expect too

But only if they can actually organize it. It's starting to look like they couldn't organize a piss-up in a beer factory.

But there may be other players with more organizational chops and the desire to nudge events along...

2. There's that old "may be" again. Where's the proof?

3. He is a menace.

4. If and when...

If and when there is another attack, tRUMP will definitely politicize it! He will say, "See if Judge Robart didn't defy my orders, this attack would never have happened. Judge Robart is to blame!" And, his base will believe it, regardless of whether or not the attacker is even from one of the 7 banned countries!

5. LIHOP, part deux

6. The following is the definition of a bastard;

* During the presidential campaign, we held out collective breath hoping a terrorist attack did not happen because we feared that Chump and Rethuglicans would blame it on President Obama, Hillary and Democratic leadership.

* Today, with Rethuglicans in charge of everything, we still hold our collective breath with respect to a potential terrorist attack because we fear Chump and Rethuglicans will still blame Democrats, judges and everybody else but themselves and create dangerous divisions.

7. If?

Of course he is going to politicize it.

And he and President Bannon will use it to strip away our constitutional rights as well.

Hitler did it with the Reichstag fire and I'm sure Trump/Bannon are praying for another 9/11 to happen so they and the alt-right can seize total control of this country and set up their fascist white theocracy.

8. And ISIS knows they can rely on him - they'll try to take advantage. - n/t

9. I am waiting for the rat repigs

to jump ship, they are all cowards.

what did that wanna be dictator say, he wanted to annihilate Isis or something to that affect? This man is a truly a threat to humanity.

10. Or a PUTIN sponsored FAKE terrorist attack...

On maybe a Trump Hotel somewhere - with some American casualties - blamed on Islamic extremists, obviously. Time for war, martial law - and (Bannon would believe) and bounce in the Orange Menace's approval ratings - but I don't believe it would play out that way. I think his arrest would be more likely.

11. I think it will happen this month

There's no "if," only "when." I'm basing my guess on the time between Hitler becoming Chancellor and the Reichstag Fire.

[inwiththenew]

12. I think it's a question of when and not if

And I believe for sure that he won't be the voice of calm resolve. He will stoke the flames bigly.

13. Will he say anything if a Christian nut goes on the rampage against Planned Parenthood?

We're much more likely to die from a home grown, gun-toting, white American psycho than anyone from "those" countries. The real terrorism is the millions of guns in this country.

14. Interesting question. If I were tacky enough to own a property in the Trump building ...

I would move out and try to unload it immediately. Probably at a loss. Trump brand buildings are all over the world and I can't imagine anybody would enlist in the military to pay back an attack on one of them.

16. He's itching for his Reichstag fire... n/t

[ProudLib72]

17. Which will count more

The blame game that is played or the action that is taken to clean up after the attack? Plus, we have to put our trust in intel at this point. Remember, W was blamed for not paying more attention to intel after 9/11. God knows that our intel is just waiting for something to happen so they can blame tRump for not paying attention to their warnings.
