The source was wrong

Mission accomplished.

Hopefully Trump can put some civilization back in our nation. Obama's people have dragged us down to his level.

If this situation gets worse between now and November, Trump may not get a chance. It would be the perfect storm for Obama to declare 'martial law', and cancel the elections. Especially if Trump is leading by a good margin.

Nah... the elections will be held as planned. If there was a peaceful transfer of power after Nixon resigned then I expect the transfer of power after this election to go pretty smoothly no matter who the next president is.

Plus, I can't imagine the military would go along with an Obama-led coup.

I wouldn't be too sure. Libs love to exploit a good crisis.

The more anguish and terror we have as a nation,
especially close to November, the better it is for
Trump. It distracts people from the issue of just
what a tyrant he is, along with his running mate.

Conservative media will have more ammunition
to beat their drum about how unsafe we are,
and how Trump and his cronies will fix all that.

You guys are praying for lots of jihads and civil unrest.
Even though I'd never expect you to admit it.
Accomplished hypocrites that you are.

Your President, DOJ, and liberal media caused this mess, you are pathetic to make such a statement. I really hope you don't believe half the mess you type and just do it to troll people.

Law and order is your biggest angle.
You want peace and serenity between now and November?
Sensible liberals do.

Trump couldn't be any more obtuse about it than Obama and Hillary.

Quote:
It was the wee hours of Friday morning, just after the Bastille Day jihadist mass-murder of at least 84 people. For Mrs. Clinton, that seemed the perfect time to take to Twitter and set the tone of the American response — the kind of resolve we can expect in a third Obama term. So as France retrieved the dead, dying, and maimed from the Promenade des Anglais, where Mohamed Lahouaiej Bouhlel had barreled over them in his truck, she unloaded with the concern foremost in her mind: Let’s be clear: Islam is not our adversary. Muslims are peaceful and tolerant people and have nothing whatsoever to do with terrorism.

Even to one so superficial as Clinton, it should by now be perfectly obvious that that there is no “Islam,” at least not if we are talking about a monolithic belief system. There are sects of Islam, all vying for supremacy in what is, in the main, a conquest ideology — with the various splinters having very different ideas about what conquest entails, and with no papal analogue to impose order by decreeing orthodoxy and condemning heterodoxy.

Clearly, some of these sects are our enemy. And just as clearly, these sects also have a legitimate claim on the designation “Islam.” That does not mean they have a monopoly on the interpretation of Islam (there, again, being no such monopoly). But it does oblige government officials responsible for national security to deal with jihadists and other sharia supremacists on their own terms. Why? Because the objective is to defeat our enemies, not redefine them. To defeat the enemy still requires knowing the enemy. Try as he might, Obama is unable to fundamentally transform Sun Tzu.

That's bogus crap.
Why don't you quote the National Enquirer?

You know as well as I do that they're message stresses
that most within the Muslim faith are good people, and
should not be vilified, alienated, and locked up as Mr. Drumpf
would have it. The radical terrorist element need to be fought
from a variety of angles, and they need to be defeated.
Neither Clinton nor Obama deny that.

Condemning every Muslim for the actions of a few
will lead to a lot more bloodshed, You can bet on that.

The BLM movement is heading the wrong way - fast.
They need to publicly condemn acts like this.
Everyone loses.

They need to condemn violence, and that's not happening.

First, I think they themselves need to come out and denounce these senseless killings. It would appear, from tweets and a certain amount of followers, that they instead promote this. I have never been to a speech so I cant truly say. Only what i've read in some of the tweets.
Next, if they fail to denounce the acts of their followings, then the group should be labeled appropriately as terrorist. The same would be said for ANY and ALL groups that promote killing or targeting of any other groups.
