Trump says he tried to stop ‘send her back’ chant — video shows he was silent for 13 seconds

Trump says he tried to stop ‘send her back’ chant — video shows he was silent for 13 seconds - National | Globalnews.ca



Now Trump is saying that making comments like "send her back" is wrong. So he's essentially saying the members of his base at the rally are racists. And he's lying to do it.

Trump is throwing all his supporters who defended his well known racist trope of "go back where you came from" under the bus, to protect his political image.

How do Trump supporters feel about the POTUS apparently calling you racists? How do you feel about him lying to do it, saying he was trying to stop the chant so he act like the anti-racist?

 
None of the Dems are generating any interest at all? I live in NH. They are all here all the time. I can tell you and everyone else that you don't know what you're talking about.

The impeachment failed? What impeachment? That was something one Congressional rep pitched so they would hold a vote this week.

Comey is in trouble? Yes, we've been hearing that for the last 2 1/2 years. Where are the indictments against Comey? In the mail with Mexico's check for the wall?

What important Dems is Epstein about to take down? Biden? Sanders? Warren? And how do you know what Epstein is going to do? Please share the source of your intel.

AOC is one of 435 Congressional reps. She owns space in everyone's head, from you to Trump. Clearly she is in charge of the Republican Party now. The President of the United States even seems to think he's running against her next year. He can't stop talking about her.
Thank you, Ms. Maddow, but you're wrong.

Trump is getting re-elected, and the DNC knows it. They're preparing their response to call ask Republicans racists as an excuse.

No matter what this liberal zoo of a forum says. This board is hardly a representation of what real Americans know and believe.
 
Isn't Mulvaney working for the ***** Grabber in Chief now in some capacity?

Speaking of Jim Jordan, I wonder how all those young men who were molested while he turned a blind eye are doing.

Yes, he took John Kelly's place as 'acting' Chief of Staff. 'Gym' Jordan... there's a piece of work. I can't wait to see how he's going to hammer on Robert Mueller in next week's hearing.
 
This ancient observer of the passing parade is looking forward to the next of President of the United States of America Donald Trump's campaign rallies. I'll be listening for 'Send her back!' from the massed faithful. It may become a 'wink-wink' part of the rallies to come.

"Ms. Maddow"? Who are you - President Trump?

Saying "you're wrong" (even without the ignorant "Ms. Maddow" high school crap) isn't showing everyone how I'm wrong. Now why don't you prove my post wrong.

And while you're at it, post some evidence about what the DNC "knows". Did you hack into their servers or something? Let the rest of us see what inside information about what they "know" that you claim to have access to.
 
What's comical about the approach you put in bold is that essentially Trump is saying 4 freshmen congresswomen have more power and represent the broader Democratic Party, which is simply not true. He would be more correct in focusing on them if they were senators, but his schtick is as much of a distraction as anything else. He hasn't challenged them on policy, only on what they supposedly represent. His base will buy whatever he's selling, but I don't think independents who went his way are buying it. So the flip side to this is he's going to look like a bully for picking on 4 new congresswomen and he's the POTUS. Some folks like bullies, most people don't.

What's been most telling about who Trump is as a leader is the walk back he's done regarding the NC rally. He didn't have the cojones (or conviction) to tell his supporters that he didn't disagree with their "send her back" sentiment as it happened. Instead he stood there silently watching and then said he didn't agree with it when he's in the Oval Office and asked about it.
These 4 women are just like all of your candidates except for old and painfully white Biden.

Yeah, it's a problem. Lol

Independents don't like any of your candidates except Biden. And he can't beat Trump. He never beats anyone.

Wow, this is the, what, 6th claim you've made about having inside information or something? Let's see your evidence of what Independents like or don't like. Did you interview them all? All millions of them? I know you didn't interview me. Because I'm now Independent, and will say again how wrong you are. I like a lot of their candidates. I like every single one of them better than the lying fraud named Trump.

Or it morphs into "Send Them Back!" referring to any other Americans who don't agree with a certain point of view. It's not a long path to get there either, because Omar represents people of a certain view, so attacking those who have a similar view becomes pretty easy for those who think themselves "real Americans"; a description that's laughable.

A lot of people who call themselves independents are straight-ticket R voters who don't want to admit to it.

Conservatives fight for their First Amendment rights, claiming it allows them to chant 'lock her up' or 'send them back', but when anyone else that's not a Trump fan, speaks up about the way minorities or immigrants are treated, then they don't believe in the First Amendment so much.
 
True, but this time he's really throwing his base under the bus. Do you think his base will be fine with Trump apparently calling them racists to protect his own hide?

The cult members will drink their Kool-Aid and ask no questions. The cult leader says they were bad, so they were bad. But, then they will ask the cult leader "...but did you like it?" and he will later say "yes". So they will do it again.
 
LOL. He doesn't want to pause, but does, for 13 full seconds, until the chant dies down.
He said he did not want this reaction. That video is proof.

I'm waiting for one of the citizens of Trump Fan Nation to say he stood there, preening like an ass, for 13 seconds because it wasn't his fault. Hillary made him do it. The teleprompter got water on it. The fake news media managed to silence him. Take your pick of one of his usual lies.
BS He isn't preening, he's impatient. You have proof that he's telling the truth but you still call him a liar.

ERod has the right take. Trump wants the Squad to be front and center as long as possible.

No, he is PRECISELY saying they are "wrong". The crazy on the left just see race everywhere. Omar will have to first be convicted for her immigration fraud before they can "send" her back. Until then they can only make the suggestion that she go of her own accord.

Yes, the video is proof that he's lying. He stood there for 13 second basking in it.

The video is proof that anyone with a properly working brain needs.

Immigration fraud? When is that indictment coming?

I used to be a straight-R ticket voter. Until Trump opened my eyes to how disgusting the Republicans are.

I'm voting for my Republican governor for re-election, that I know. And I'm not voting for Trump, that I also know. The rest is TBD.

Calling someone Ms. Maddow (its actually Dr. Maddow) is a pretty high compliment given that holds a PhD in Political Science from Oxford. She is undoubtedly the best educated and likely most intelligent talking head on TV. You may not like her politics, but she is one very smart lady. If you called Tres Ms. Maddow, the rest of us can only conclude that you are in awe of her intellectual prowess.

Regardless of what the forum says, Trump, even in a very strong economy, can not muster more than a 45% approval rating, has 53% of the country saying he is unfit for office (can't do the job) and 59% saying they will not vote for him. Not to mention the fact that he is currently down double digits in Michigan, Wisconsin, and Iowa and down nearly double digits in Pennsylvania, Arizona and Ohio. He is also down in North Carolina and Georgia (ok call Georgia a push). Trump can't afford to lose any of those states, really, much less all of them.

Sorry pal, but there is no empirical basis to support the notion of Trump's re-election. All you have is your wishful thinking. Expressing your wishful thinking is not debate.

BS The video shows him impatiently fiddling and no basking at all. It's proof of veracity that would stand up in court.

Hi, and thanks for the post. 'Real Americans' are all of us, warts and all. We form the society in this country with its complexities, its contradictions, its crudities, its cruelties and its caring for others. We are not the greatest nor the worst. We are all of us, warts and all.

Regards.

HAHAH so now your argument is that Trump can't even control a crowd of his own fans? Oh wow. I knew he was incompetent, but now we even have his supporters telling us he's incompetent. Good one.

He could have compared you to the President of the United States which really would have been a compliment.

I'll leave you to your denial and wishful thinking.

Thank you. I will take your praise as literal because it is deserved.

Far from incompetent, the crowd is literally having too much fun. Trump is the acknowledged master of this sort of speech. As such, he knew to wait it out and get immediately back on point.

If you want supporting facts, look at the attendance figures. No one else fills venues like he does.

He didn't compare me to anyone... and if he did, it would be an insult for Trump is pretty widely regarded as a despicable man, even among his supporters....

My "wishful thinking", unlike the poster I was admonishing, is backed up by facts. There is no factual foundation for Trump's re-election; there is plenty, if not overwhelming evidence, that says its re-election will not likely happen. That makes those that think Trump will be re-elected operating strikly on wishful thinking.

LOL. If you're going to demand we disbelieve our lying eyes, we'll have to leave it here. Might as well argue with a flat earther.
