That has zero correlation regarding his view on law enforcement. He was attacking a person, not law enforcement. CNN/MSNBC really does get thru to people with their non-stop propaganda.

Prosecuting alleged criminals is a vital part of law enforcement. Complaining about alleged criminals being prosecuted is not exactly an indicator for someone being pro law enforcement.

We see law enforcement agents as individuals break the law in persecuting innocent people every day around the world. In Miami, the police chief and officers falsely framed innocent people of crimes recently. I am not saying Sessions is right or wrong, but he has been dubious at doing his job. And, everyone complains about someone who is targeted by the law nowadays in this social justice world. If Trump was saying this about some liberal like a Hillary or Bernie croney, then maybe you would be praising him. That is his opinion just like you and I have our own. Personally, I don't like Sessions either as he hasn't been doing his job. He should be investigating the Clinton Foundation as I bet a Billion dollars they used during her campaign was broke a few laws as well as the Fisa documents which are explicitely using DMC money.

Not only did he attack his own AG, he has attacked the FBI, CIA, & all other agencies that have said Russia interfered. Attacking the AG has 100% correlation with his view on law enforcement. The AG is the highest point of law enforcement.

I don't care if people have left or right leaning ideals, it just amazes me that Trump can be such a **** human being, spew the most uneducated, false, hateful narratives, show an ineptitude rarely seen at this level of politics, and still have people act like sun shines out of his ass every day and spend hours of their day, every day, defending him. Obama is my favorite president since I was born (1989), and even I disagreed with a decent amount of things he did or didn't do, and I never went out of my way to defend him or his honor (unless somebody was clearly exaggerating or lying about something he did). I'm not doing that for anybody (outside of the sports realm lol) unless it's somebody I know and love personally.

Actually, reflecting on things, it doesn't amaze me. Jim Jones had followers too.

Trump being in power allows people to blame others (migrants, foreigners, PoC, the media) for the things in their life they're unhappy about. It allows people to play the victim and get angry at others rather than take any responsibility and that makes them feel better about their lives.

In my opinion the majority of his hard-line supporters aren't defending him personally or his political achievements so much as they are defending the vile rhetoric he legitimizes, they just do it through the thin veil of political support because actually being racist is illegal. His idiocy and ineptitude aren't relevant to them because they don't actually care about what he achieves politically. In return he gets to abuse the office for his personal gain, so he'll continue to bang the drum because it garners him support and keeps him in the chair.

We're seeing a similar thing in the UK at the moment. Certain far-right individuals are legitimizing racism and xenophobia to achieve their personal goals, and idiot bigots are voting for them under the guises of 'sovereignty' and 'taking back control' when in reality they just don't want non-white faces in their neighborhood. They happily ignore the lies and the law-breaking because it allows them a platform to be racist.

People like Bannon stir the pot on both sides of the Atlantic and advocate racist views citing an uninformed defense of 'free speech' (whilst also using the word 'liberal' as an insult - it's so uninformed it's astounding) - just another thin political veil for legitimizing hate. You won't get a single logical response to any challenge or probe, just ignorance and insults.

What I find truly amazing isn't the vociferousness of the the defense Trump receives, but the volume of people that still exist with clearly prejudicial views in the 21st century.

So the republican led DOJ looked into to Clinton and said nothing was there. The FBI led by first Comey and now by Trump nominated Wray say the Clinton's didn't commit any crimes. So you want someone who just doesn't follow the law and just tries to make up crimes?

I don't like Sessions, but he doesn't politicize the justice department. I don't like that he doesn't look into obvious corruption of the Trump organization, I guess Sessions does protect Trump in that way.

Meanwhile Trump and family have been misusing the Trump Foundation from day one and they can't even tell you what happened to the Inauguration fund other the 26 million dollars that Melania paid her friend for basically nothing.

Wrong. FBI croneys with long ties to the Clintons said there were no crimes but there was no effort to even dig into the Clinton Foundation. For example, why is Mueller spending tens of millions to only come up with a $150k payment to a stripper when Hillary paid $850k to Paula Jones. The Clinton Foundation using money on Chelsae's wedding. How they pocketed a large portion of the Haitian fund. The $20 plus million the Saudi's contributed to the Hitlary compaign. List probably tremendously larger than all that. Hillary also was heavily involved in uranium one in which Mueller was also involved. Their ties go backa long ways. But, attacking the good ole boys way of doing business and major money involved would be bad for the elite and those up at the top, so of course there will be no charges otherwise the floodgates might open revealing a grand level of corruption. I bet half of the Democrats and Republicans can't afford to see Hillary go down or they might go with her.

With the conservative president attacking law enforcement, the free media, and inciting violence i'm sure you must be embarrassed.


Wait. Trump promotes the law enforcement and visits Police halls in every city he visits. It is the extreme liberals who attack law enforcement. And, the free media has all turned into TMZ style propaganda for both sides of the spectrum to the point where both sides spews truths and untruths as a matter of fact. As far as violence, it is mostly Antifa and extreme left wingers who are the ones physically attacking conservatives on the streets, not the other way around. I see more from Left sided politicians like Maxine who publicly tell her sheep to accost conservative politicians in restaurants and in the streets. The attacks from the Left are constant, aggressive and much more often than from the Right side from what I see the past 2 years. I reckon whomever is elected albeit Democrat or Republican as president, then the loser ends up being the more combative and aggressive since they didn't get their way. It is some type of sore loser syndrome. The only way we can succeed is if both sides works together and come to compromises. Unfortunately, working together is not a thing either side wants.
Lets not forget Maxine Waters literally calling on people to harass, admin officials and Trump supporters in public. Some on the left are blaming Trump for the lunacy because they cant get over the fact that they lost. Some on the left have lost their minds. For example accusing a mexican/Jew of throwing up white power gestures during a confirmation hearing. Trump isnt "attacking Law enforcement" he's called out some in the FBI who WERE CAUGHT using their positions to stop him from become president and he was right.

This will add to the debate,

Just saw on CNN that 4-5 people have been shot in a Cincinnati bank. Gunmen believed to be in custody and wounded by police.

Who was caught? How many people have already plead guilty in the Mueller probe, 12? Trump himself is already an unindicted co-conspirator, meaning if he wasn't president he'd already be charged.


Waiting on who was using an FBI position to stop him.

You've been watching Hannity too and not using real facts.

Once again my sincerest condolences to the families that had to suffer from this heinous act and the victims that lost their lives. As a competitive gamer, it sucks to see someone get to the point of shooting others because they lost. We need to be better as humans.

As for this thread, I think this has run its course. It has turned completely political and lost sight to the actual tragedy at hand. Going to lock this.
