View Full Version : Trump Compares Cops Who Shoot People With Golfers Who "Choke"

His actual words – “Shooting the guy in the back many times ...... But they choke, just like in a golf tournament, they miss a three-foot putt.”
Trump then went to Kenosha to support the police, one of whose members attempted to murder an unarmed black man by shooting him 7 times in the back at point-blank range as he reached into the driver side of his car and while his small children watched from the back seat.
Trump refused to meet the family of the victim because he refused to meet with lawyers present. The victim is paralyzed and remains in the hospital fighting for his life.
I use the term "attempt to murder" advisedly since that is exactly what the cop did. What else could his action be called?

It's no secret by now I find the dufus approach to most situations to be disgusting and provocative. He seems to stand for everything I don't like, and dangerous.

The worst is what we expect, and it can be even worse.

unarmed black man
not exactly correct . He was carrying a karambit . Not saying the shooting was justified .Just saying it is not correct that he was unarmed . He also fought with the police prior to the shooting according to the person who video'ed the incident . The witness also said he heard the cop tell Blake to 'drop the knife' . https://1.bp.blogspot.com/-mcgb3CohhoI/X0V1nHyNKAI/AAAAAAAAIIY/ZEQzQhOetmgszK4D-hKp-Ejmm44kwTtCACLcBGAsYHQ/s1600/Kenosha%2B1.jpg

Quid will go to Kenosha tomorrow . The press will praise him for going, instead of condemning his visit like they did to Trump.

Biden will have empathy and will want to find solutions. Trump claimed he had talked with the Blakes' pastor (Psst, there isn't one.) and in Kenosha only roiled the waters.

I can understand wanting Biden and not the dufus to visit during a bad time.

Clete that's part of the problem as the golf playing rich guy crowd has little clue as how their decisions affect ordinary folks.
