Boorish Trump Uses 9/11 as a Ratings Benchmark to Proclaim His Own Greatness

Posted at 7:04 pm on April 24, 2017 by Jim Jamitis



TRUMP: It had 9.2 million people. It’s the highest they’ve ever had. On any, on air, (CBS “Face the Nation” host John) Dickerson had 5.2 million people. It’s the highest for “Face the Nation” or as I call it, “Deface the Nation.” It’s the highest for “Deface the Nation” since the World Trade Center. Since the World Trade Center came down. It’s a tremendous advantage.

The reason I see huge foreign affairs blunders.  He didn't even realize...........

   This is screwed up on so many levels, I know I'm gonna catch he11 for this, here but he does seem to throw 9/11 around rather casually, in the third debate he used it to counter Sen. Cruz's question about NY Values.
   flame away, but it sickens me.

No one should flame you for stating the obvious.

This is screwed up.....

Yes I remember that.

No one should be surprised. Not just because of the lack of filter like your drunk uncle, but he really views 9/11 differently than most, going beyond flirting with 'trutherism'. http://www.redstate.com/streiff/2015/10/21/donald-trump-becomes-blatant-911-truther/

   I've been catching a lot of Flak about what is perceived as my hatred for the Man lately (there is no substantiation to these rumours, I promise you).
   He has done a few significant things that are admirable and that is a gift for which I am appreciative of, totally unexpected (there's that word again) but there are some things I can't even try to paste over and his whole NY persona just puts sand in the Vaseline for this Texan.

No surprise.  He and his good buddy Jesse Ventura and their conspiracy theories.

Don’t you just pity whomever has to transcribe these interviews?

I'm sure it is a lot more fun than some unemployed mechanical engineer turned political pundit, eh Jim?

BTW Jim, no one gives a shit about a bragging Trump. If the did Hitlary would be giving these interviews and not Donny.

Actually @corbe, candidate Trump was not "throwing 9/11 around casually" ... he was referring to the quality of the first responders and the way every day New Yorkers pitched in and helped each other ... even without the cameras rolling.  This whole event brought out the best of New York values ... it was and remains one of  New York's finest hours.

That's common in NYC. People who will help will usually just do it and then go on their way.

[Weird Tolkienish Figure]

Idiots on this forum would defend Trump for things that they would excoriate Obama for.

Total hypocrites.

One would think that the OP...who claims to have such a high IQ...would know that the first word being "BOORISH", that his is an EDITORIAL/OPINION piece and not POLITICS
