under the rule of Comrade Casino himself, the republican Draft-Dodger-in-Chief, you have a darkside 'Anti-Miracle of guns & bullets.'

In a way what happened in Vegas was a miracle because...first responders.

No word for the victims.

Notice he does that all the time?

The victims are secondary (if that high) after he praises "first responders" as if he is being paid to say "first responders".

Was her seriously thinking the horrifically high numbers (59 dead, over 500 injured) could somehow be mitigated by praising "first responders"?

It's just another way of saying - it could have been worse - on the worst day in the lives of many people. (their children, spouse, parent, sister, brother murdered)

How do you say that to people who have just lost their loved ones in a mass murder?

Yeah, well, it could have been worse.

Also, his way of trying to take credit for it in some way...it could have been worse, but I support first responders (whatever that means to him) and by mentioning them constantly, I am keeping you, and by extension, America, safe.

Same way with the police when he mentions them.

Same kind of bullshit.

It's all an extension of him and in his mind, he is somehow keeping America safe, and it's all his doing, because he mentions the police or first responders - thus inspiring them. Or some such shit.

Sorry...ranting. The man said it and I sputtered.

The victims are always an afterthought.

He is sickening.

he doesn't really understand what it is he's saying.

For him, "miracle" means something extraordinary that can't be explained. For him, it doesn't matter whether that something is good or bad. It's still a "miracle."

He's an idiot in an ill-fitting suit.

Or didn’t shoot at the crowd with rocket propelled grenades.

Tell you the truth, it’s pretty hard to understand what that tangerine buffoon is thinking about at any given time.

A miracle would have been if the FBI had caught him before it happened.
