Pres. Donald Trump took to Twitter on Sunday afternoon to lash out at the Washington federal judge who blocked his executive order banning travelers from certain Muslim-majority nations from entering the country.

“Just cannot believe a judge would put our country in such peril. If something happens blame him and court system. People pouring in. Bad!” the president tweeted.

He followed up by saying, “I have instructed Homeland Security to check people coming into our country VERY CAREFULLY. The courts are making the job very difficult!”

Trump’s Muslim ban was chaotically implemented and ultimately unconstitutional, say critics. In spite of an injunction by Washington federal Judge James Robart halting the executive order, Trump has vowed to continue to fight for the Muslim ban in court.

1. hes going to LET something haappen

hes trying for the same effect of 911.
Some sort of legitimacy for his dumb ass.
N E V E R maggot.

[elehhhhna]

8. He seems to be rooting for it

[PatSeg]

9. This is what I'm afraid of

well, among many things, but what this administration could do with a terrorist attack is terrifying. I remember how GW used 9/11 to justify domestic surveillance, the Patriot Act, black sites, torture, and Gitmo. Trump would be far, far worse.

[coco22]

13. Then he will say we all have to come together..

then they will start calling out specific Dems and going on the media saying they need to make us fall in line. Dems will get scared like always, fall in line like they did under Bush and they keep telling that lie"THE country came together after 911"which was a bunch of bull.

They will call out President Obama as they still do now,I hope he doesn't answer.

[KewlKat]

21. I think quite a few of us have felt this since the con took the oath.

yes, another 911.......

[nyrnyr1994]

22. LIHOP

Never thought we'd have to think about that acronym again, but here we are

[TexasBushwhacker]

36. And whose approval rating went up immediately following 9/11

I'm not so sure the American public will fall fir that shit again.

[hamsterjill]

40. He's going to MAKE something happen.

That's my fear. Sadistic bastard.

[uppityperson]

2. k&r

[Beartracks]

3. "I've instructed them to check very carefully"???

Don't they do that already? That's their job.

===========

[PatSeg]

10. Exactly

We've had extreme vetting for a long time now.

[dchill]

28. +1000

[cstanleytech]

4. You didnt instruct them to check them you twit, you instructed them to be banned from entering for

no other damn reason than pandering to your base which is largely of bigoted, uneducated idiots like yourself.

[IdiotsforPalin]

5. Gin up the fear and hate so his base

has something to froth at the mouth over......So much for the "Law and Order" president.

[longship]

6. Sorry! Pig Pen Bannon has all the gin.

None left for anybody to gin up anything with.

[dalton99a]

23. Imagine the abuse if the judge was Muslim or Hispanic.

[randr]

7. Every thing is now on twitler

Obama had already made it very difficult to come in from these countries, twit is just rattling his saber.
The death toll from Radial Christianic Terrorists is already higher this year.

[TomCADem]

11. Yeah, Don't Blame The President Who Blows Off Security Briefings...

...and has dismissed experienced federal staff with hundreds of years of combined experience from various national security agencies. This just sets up Trump to disregard the courts.

[Bernardo de La Paz]

12. Blame Comrade Trump for skipping intelligence briefings. Worse than Bush, who was asleep in his. nt

[Pathwalker]

14. And if anything happens to that judge, we'll blame YOU,

you monster shit for brains!

[okwmember]

15. Clearly, I am not an attorney,

but why can't the judge hold him in contempt? He is basically DOJ's client, and their client just called the judge an dangerous idiot. Why can't the judge hold him in contempt? Or is this one of those situations where the "client/clients" are technically the people of the US?

[NCjack]

16. If #45 can't solve the problems required to keep us safe

within our legal framework, he has the obligation to resign immediately. If he stays on, the Congress has the responsibility to remove him quickly.

[petronius]

17. If/when something happens, the blame will be squarely on an inept, incoherent,

and ignorant administration which has antagonized our allies, disrupted the workings of our government, and revitalized our enemies. Ill-considered bar-stool philosophy and knee-jerk talk-radio politics are no way to transition a government or run a country...

[GeoWilliam750]

18. To me, this really echoes of,

"Who will rid me of this turbulent priest?"

[dchill]

31. It's meddlesome priest.

Which works better. Still a scary thought.

[GeoWilliam750]

33. Not entirely clear on the exact quote...

From Wiki

"The king's exact words are in doubt and several versions have been reported.[11] The most commonly quoted, as handed down by oral tradition, is "Who will rid me of this troublesome priest?",[12] but according to historian Simon Schama this is incorrect: he accepts the account of the contemporary biographer Edward Grim, writing in Latin, who gives us "What miserable drones and traitors have I nourished and brought up in my household, who let their lord be treated with such shameful contempt by a low-born cleric?"[13] Many variations have found their way into popular culture."

However, we split hairs.

[Worried senior]

19. I don't trust them

to not set something up.

[jpak]

20. If "something happens" it's the POTUS must be blamed

He did not keep us "safe".

[mobeau69]

24. Odds are, if something does it won't be from one of the 7 countries with the ban

Then what, traitor?

[mobeau69]

25. America Needs You, Harry Truman

[doc03]

26. His people may make it happen nt

[Glamrock]

27. That's fair

And when some clinically insane person goes on a murderous rampage and kills a bunch of people with an assault rifle, we'll blame you. Fucker.

[Va Lefty]

29. You know we once had a President

who said "The buck stops here."

Now we have one who says "very unfair, blame him."

Thanx deplorables

[Doodley]

30. It seems that this could be a turning point that will knock Trump's approval to below 40

[still_one]

32. So let me understand this, if a white supremacist, KKK, a sovereign citizen, or

other typical trump supporter commits such an act, whose fault is it again?

[orangecrush]

34. Narcissistic narcissist

Is having narcissistic rage.

[Beartracks]

35. Narcissistic narcissist is narcissistic. n/t

[Amimnoch]

37. Fair enough. Does that mean he's responsible

for the 18 gun deaths that happened yesterday...
for the 18 gun deaths the day before that..
and the 18 gun deaths the day before that..

[mdbl]

38. Right out of the Nazi Play book!

Would someone please do something about Hitler ll.

[Mc Mike]

39. The last repug let some massive attacks occur here, and let thousands die.

Then for 8 years, the Dem Prez kept any large scale attack from occurring here, without trying to shred the Constitution, with the repugs tying his hands behind his back, and with the repugs screaming lies about what a 'tyrant' he was.

Now this orange asshole 'isn't able' to keep an attack from occurring, unless he has complete dictator's power. If he can't destroy the constitution, it 'isn't' his fault when a massive attack occurs. (All the good targets are in strongly Dem areas, all the best national symbols, all the most populated areas.)

He's getting rid of tons of career anti-terror intel people, won't even nominate people to fill the positions, wiped out the nuclear materials security staff, publicly attacks our intel people, ignores his intel briefings.

It was already his m.o. to blame underlings for everything, nothing is ever his fault, though he's in charge. But now he's setting it up to blame his political enemies if his sterling leadership leads to another massive attack on US soil. He 'foresees' another massive attack, and he's already taking political advantage of it.

Sorry, il Douche A, if you're the second repug 'strongman' in a row to let the US get attacked, I foresee a trip to the nearest Esso station for you, in your immediate post-attack future. Up the long ladder and down the short rope. Pitchforks and torches.

No reichstag fire or new pearl harbor this time, you tubby blubber-full nazi fuck up.
