Trump Bashes Obama for 'Screaming' at Protester (He Wasn't) - ABC News

During the event in Fayetteville, NC, Obama was confronted by a protester carrying a Trump placard, sparking an uproar from the crowd.
But Obama chastised the crowd, telling them to "sit down and be quiet for a second." The exchange with the crowd went on for several minutes.

“You’ve got an older gentleman who is supporting his candidate. He’s not doing nothing. You don’t have to worry about him. This is what I mean about folks not being focused,” Obama said.

“First of all, we live in a country that respects free speech,” Obama said. “Second of all, it looks like maybe he might have served in our military and we ought to respect that. Third of all, he was elderly and we got to respect our elders. And fourth of all, don't boo. Vote!”


I wonder how Trump characterized it.

I don't think you and history are going to be on the same page when it comes to this man or his administration.
 


Obama: Class

Trump: Lack-of-Class

Oh please... try harder. Trump didnt say anything inaccurate. Obama was yelling about... and with that kinda at the protestor. Trump does get railed for stuff like that. Trumps protestors get tons of air time.

Puh...leeeeze! :roll:

I love it when you guys try to argue with video. So how did the video respond when you tried to tell it what it shows?

Who are "you guys"?

Gotta know this one prior to potentially wasting my time....

I think history will show that Obama was part of the problem.

I think "new media" and the "alt-right" will be viewed as an easily manipulated group of aging closet racists that vote purely out of a rage toward anybody who isn't white and angry about nothing and see themselves as victims of a system that tries to help people who need help and have been abandoned by billionaires who only care about what's best for themselves.

What is "new media"? Why is it that I always learn about these things from leftists?

Uhhhhh... I'm pretty center, but "new media" is a group of websites that rely on innuendo and tweets for their articles. I wrote a series of articles about "new media" about 5 years ago and the term was warmly embraced by them. They see the mainstream media as biased, which most people think it is and can be, but "new media" doesn't fact check. They also love click bait, selective editing, borderline criminal methodology and no fact checking. Questions?
 
This goes to show what a controlling punk bitch Ibama really is.
 
It's pretty clear he was talking to the people booing.

Yeah... i told crit thought that Trump gets railed for stuff and Trump protestors getvair time. How is that wrong?

He said as much.

"I told you to be focused and you're not focused...

Now listen up, you've got an older gentleman who is supporting his candidate. He's not doing nothing. You don't have to worry about him. This is what I mean about folks not being focused....

First of all, we live in a country that respects free speech. So, second of all, it looks like maybe he served in our military and we gotta respect that. Third of all, he was elderly and we gotta respect our elders. Fourth of all, don't boo, vote!"

He was telling the crowd to settle down and leave the guy alone.

Really? Telling the crowd to settle down and why they need to respect the protester's free speech. Respect his possible service to our country and to respect our elders is not being controlling. It's called common courtesy and is head and shoulders above Trump screaming, "Get him out of here! Get him out of here!"

Some people see everything through partisan colored lenses, and that is a damned shame.

History, more than ever, depends on who writes it. It no longer is factual or accurate.

He got a case of the ass because he was being ignored. He didn't give two ****s about anyone's right, or his service to the country.

You are totally right. Screw the elderly. Screw the vets. Screw free speech. How dare Obama challenge the people at his crowd to have support for any of those things. He is such a tyrant.

That was my point... that is how CT sees things.

That's the way you see it.

And then there's how it was, as the video shows.

The video proves my point. He wanted everyone to stay focused. He wasn't worried about anyone's rights.

Which is patently false:

As he said:
"I told you to be focused and you're not focused...

First of all, we live in a country that respects free speech. So, second of all, it looks like maybe he served in our military and we gotta respect that. Third of all, he was elderly and we gotta respect our elders. Fourth of all, don't boo, vote!"

His actual words.
