Trump makes a joke about shooting......somebody

Donald Trump just made a joke that seemed to imply someone get shot.

At least, many people are saying that.  I don't know.

The people who should now be outraged and seek to have him removed from the ticket are...Second Amendment Folks.

[Crazieman]

Well...

If picked judges void the second amendment, what do you think is going to happen?

[sinkspur]

Another cow-pie stepped in by Trump.  I said yesterday I'd give him until Friday and here he's beat me by three days with this gaffe.

Trump was speaking in North Carolina and, once again, will drive the Father-of-shooter-at-Hillary-rally off the evening news.

"I support the ban on assault weapons and I also support a slightly longer waiting period to purchase a gun" -Donald Trump 2000

"President Obama spoke for me and every American in his remarks in #Newtown Connecticut." -Donald Trump 2012

"I will be meeting with the NRA, who has endorsed me, about not allowing people on the terrorist watch list, or the no fly list, to buy guns." -Donald Trump 2016

I have no confidence Donald Trump has any idea what the two amendment is about or would put judges on the court that would defend it.

I quote Jonah Goldberg:

It’s like one of those construction-site signs: “X Days Since an Accident.” The Trump campaign record for Days Since Unpresidential Mishap is, by my count, about three. (I restarted the clock when he interrupted his VP search to sue an ex-employee for $10 million and to — understandably if unpresidentially — question the mental capacity of a Supreme Court justice). That sign will never break double digits.

He's doing a good thing; Trump knows riots don't start themselves and that he has a role to play in leading the lemmings off the cliff.

Why was Trump campaigning in South Carolina in the first place?

[ABX]

The problem is there are idiots out there (like freepers) will listen to this and decide they are tired of just being a Chairborne Ranger and think it is their personal job to '*water the tree of liberty'.

*..and if they ever actually read the letter that Jefferson wrote with that quote, they'll understand it doesn't mean what they think it does and doesn't play well for them.

[Bunny Watson]

The more I think about it, the more upset I get. That braying jackass times this stuff perfectly. I am utterly convinced he's in this for Hillary.

Trump: '2nd Amendment' may be only way to block Clinton's judicial picks

Donald Trump on Tuesday said "the Second Amendment" may be the only way to stop Hillary Clinton from getting to appoint federal judges if she wins the presidential election in November.

“Hillary wants to abolish, essentially abolish, the Second Amendment,” he said, in what appeared to be a joke. “By the way, and if she gets to pick her judges, nothing you can do, folks. Although the Second Amendment people, maybe there is, I don’t know. But I’ll tell you what, that will be a horrible day.”


The reference to the Second Amendment, the right to keep and bear arms, could be interpreted as a joke about using violence to stop Clinton or her judicial picks.

Trump was speaking at a rally in Wilmington, North Carolina, where he repeated his regular claim that Clinton intends to “abolish” the Second Amendment, presumably by appointing liberal justices to the Supreme Court. But Trump punctuated that line with an aside, suggesting that Second Amendment supporters might be in a position to stop her even if she’s elected.

The Trump campaign rejected the notion that Trump was inciting violence against Clinton or anyone else with his aside at the Wilmington rally. Instead, the campaign said the Manhattan billionaire was simply appealing to the collective political muscle Second Amendment supporters possess.

“It’s called the power of unification – 2nd Amendment people have amazing spirit and are tremendously unified, which gives them great political power," Trump's senior communications advisor Jason Miller said in a statement emailed to POLITICO. "And this year, they will be voting in record numbers, and it won’t be for Hillary Clinton, it will be for Donald Trump.”

Clinton did not take any questions after her event in Miami on Tuesday, but reached for comment, Clinton campaign manager Robby Mook condemned the comments. "This is simple—what Trump is saying is dangerous. A person seeking to be the President of the United States should not suggest violence in any way," he said in a statement.

If anyone else said this, they’d get at least a “friendly” visit from the Secret Service.  No?

Glen Beck got one after making the stabbing comment, which I happen to have heard live on the air while driving when he said it and there was no way that I took it to mean he would stab Trump but jokingly about Stu.

http://dfw.cbslocal.com/2016/03/04/glenn-beck-under-investigation-for-alleged-threat-against-trump/

Then again maybe Trump will have to be interviewed by the Secret Service for making a threat, which I think would be a first for a modern Presidential election.  Perhaps his Secret Service detail will have to do double duty from now on.

Of course Trump’s supporters will say he was only joking. Time to get out my Little Fingered Donnie Secret Decoder Ring™ just to be sure.

[sinkspur]

This is just a ridiculous assumption.....geeeez sink!

Then what did he mean?  Instead of piling on the Mateen story at Hillary's rally, he kills it with this nonsense.

You sure you still want to vote for this unhinged idiot?

[Weird Tolkienish Figure]

This is Trump. He says outrageous things for publicity. He has already said that he could shoot someone and get elected.

I'm not shocked at this.

[Idaho_Cowboy]

This is just a ridiculous assumption.....geeeez sink!

If Donald Trump were capable of using basic noun verb clause and sentence construction, we might know what he meant. Instead, all we know is what he said. It's like listening to Dougie Franklin on Red Green try to explain boolean logic.

I'll have to check if I got one in my box of fruit loops.

There is probably nothing the #nevertrump people can do about trump.  Although the #nevertrumps who are Second Amendment people, maybe there is, I don't know.

I think it's in the Ovaltine package...

[r9etb]

I'm not shocked at this.

Which in itself says all there is to say about Trump's suitability as a candidate, and as president.  The guy is completely undisciplined.  Imagine him trying to negotiate a sensitive treaty....
