TRUMP MUST TAKE US ALL FOR FOOLS

The way Trump backtracked on his remarks about armed patrons in the Pulse nightclub is just one more reason Hillary will be our next president

In the wake of the Orlando shooting, Donald Trump made a number of speeches in which included remarks similar to the following one he made on CNN:

“If you had some guns in that club the night that this took place, if you had guns on the other side, you wouldn’t have had the tragedy that you had. If people in that room had guns with the bullets flying in the opposite direction right at him... right at his head, you wouldn’t have had the same tragedy that you ended up having.”

Or as he said at a Texas rally:

“If some of those wonderful people had gun strapped right here—right to their waist or right to their ankle—and one of the people in that room happened to have it and goes ‘boom, boom,’ you know that would have been a beautiful, beautiful sight, folks.”

However, on Sunday’s ABC This Week, Chris Cox, executive director of the NRA's Institute for Legislative Action, responded to Trump’s remarks by saying:

“No one thinks that people should go into a nightclub drinking and carrying firearms. That defies common sense. It also defies the law.”

And NRA head Wayne LaPierre agreed, telling CBS Face the Nation, “I don’t think you should have firearms where people are drinking.”

Trump then quickly backtracked by tweeting:

“When I said that if, within the Orlando club, you had some people with guns, I was obviously talking about additional guards or employees.”

Yeah right! Anyone with the brain of an earthworm knows exactly that when Trump mentioned “those wonderful people,” he was obviously referring to the nightclub patrons being armed, and not to guards or employees.

What a schmuck! Trump must take us all for fools. His backtracking whopper is just one more reason the Hildebeast will be our next president.
