Trump Looking for Scapegoat for Next Terror Attack
Trump Looking for Scapegoat for Next Terror Attack
February 6, 2017 By Taegan Goddard
President Trump “appears to be laying the groundwork to preemptively shift blame for any future terrorist attack on U.S. soil from his administration to the federal judiciary, as well as to the media,” the Washington Post reports.
“Trump’s terrorism blame-game is in keeping with how he ran his campaign, looking for scapegoats at nearly every turn. He often blamed his own failings — a poor debate performance or a gaffe or a primary loss — on the media or other perceived enemies, and he fed his own conspiracies that his adversaries were out to undermine him.”
