Trump again caught in a scandalous history.

Trump again caught in a scandalous history. He criticized in his Twitter the mayor of London because he said that the number of police officers on the streets increased and tourists threatens nothing. European leaders diplomatically expressed dissatisfaction with the statement Trump, and former British Ambassador even said that he was sick from Trump.

[Sithara007]

It was Sadiq Khan, who started all this. Remember a few months back, he called Donald Trump a buffoon. He also criticized Trump severely for his travel ban on Muslim nations. Now when Trump got the opportunity, he paid back the favor in kind.

This is what you call a scandal? A Twitter post? Seriously?

Liberals want to increase police funding, and also want to see less terrorism and violence against racialized minorities. Do they really not see the contradiction in that?

If you are going to start a political discussion you can at least say more than a few lines and include sources.

Kellyanne Conway, or the White House Chief Strategist said "This obsession with covering everything he says on Twitter & very little to what he does as POTUS..." https://twitter.com/KellyannePolls/status/871819542263214082 Does this mean CNN is right and a presidential tweet is equal to a presidential statement? If it is, or if it is not either way just because Trump is commander-in-chief does not mean everything he says will magically become true.

What is the scandal in his twitter comments,do you call that a scandal or just foolish feeds from the president.He just keeps up with his impulsive nature and keeps on coming up with foolish comments and i wonder he might regret all of this at a later time,for a leader like him he has to think twice before writing down something,he is just proving that his upstairs is vacant and anyone could become a president.

Frankly speaking, as soon as I saw this thread I thought it is about America pulling out of Paris agreement. I guess that'll​make America a negativity against mankind. The president is not understanding that every country had different goals to achieve.
What OP said is not even remotely considered as scandal.

ha ha ha ha

Trump should take a twitter vacation, as for the scandals, I do not know what the surprise is... it is already a scandal. Ha ha ha

People should rather be criticizing The Mayor's response rather than Donald Trumps response, how can you tell people not to be alarmed after this, or is it normal for Muslims to behave like this, I really want to know.

The mayor as usual, was trying to divert the attention from his failures during the terrorist attack. That was why he chose to attack Trump. Someone please tell him that this is not the ideal time to play political games. How can you justify someone in the terror watch-list conducting an armed attack, and that too with his companions?

[Grimshaw]

"Surely this will be the end of Trump's campaign presidency"

[ridery99]

Just another mainstream bilderberg media fake news story. Why there even have to be a topic for this nonsense?

Hehe, I think that's what some of the apologists are failing to see. The event in itself was just a tweet, everyone needs to man the fuck up, but diplomacy was shattered, that what the OP was trying to communicate in not so much English,LOL. Personally myself and a lot of Americans could give a flying fuck about this, but what we aren't aware of is how much this pissed London off, because they aren't our news cycle. The POTUS does not make a disparaging comment about another leader during an active crisis with international coverage. Imagine  if Bush had been criticized by the French president for reading a book to a class while the first towers were struck.

The mayor said that pretty plainly too, his statement wasn't ambiguous one bit. Don't be alarmed at the increased police presence. It takes a special one like 45 to misread the tone, respond at the wrong time, and then double down on said misinterpretation instead of apologizing.

This is covfefe, essentially. And I actually mean that seriously, not as a joke. It's the same attitude that gave us covfefe, at least. The reluctance to admit a mistake, a complete lack of diplomacy. Political correctness might be a toss up nowadays, but diplomacy should never be.

Also, shit like this simply looks bad. That's shit people's mothers should have taught them, there is no substitute for home training LOL.


“When you have a special relationship it is no different from when you have got a close mate. You stand with them in times of adversity but you call them out when they are wrong. There are many things about which Donald Trump is wrong.”

Trump’s tirade also appeared to act as a rebuke to the acting US ambassador to Britain, Lewis Lukens, who had put out a thread of tweets, culminating in a retweet of Khan’s statement.

“I commend the strong leadership of the mayor of London as he leads the city forward after this heinous attack,” the acting ambassador said.

In more normal times, such a message of solidarity with a host mayor in an allied state would be unremarkable, but it unleashed a torrent of online abuse from Trump’s supporters, accusing Lukens of disloyalty. Some focused on the fact that the acting ambassador was offering support for a foreign official who is Muslim, rather than echoing the president.

Take heed. This 'America First ' shit is going to have us at 'America Going It's Own Way'. The world is watching us hard right now, folks.

Edit: had to fix, I fucked the formatting up bigly on this one

I thought this was serious news, not twitter comments. It just attracts attention to his person, but for the scandal it's ridiculous.

But the White House said that Trump's tweets are official government pronouncements, and thus, subject to the Presidential Records Act.

http://deadline.com/2017/06/sean-spicer-donald-trump-tweets-official-statements-by-president-live-tweet-comey-testimony-senate-intel-committee-white-house-press-briefing-1202108447/

President Donald Trump’s tweets “are considered official statements by the President of the United States,” because “the president is the President of the United States,” White House Press Secretary Sean Spicer explained patiently at Tuesday’s briefing. This after reporters asked him straight up if Trump’s tweets should be regarded as official White House statements.

One day later, Spicer boasted Trump’s commanding use of social media helped gain him the White House and that Trump now claims a collective total of close to 100M people across different social platforms.


So we should ignore 'official statements by the President of the United States'? I mean, he is the POTUS. Surely an official statement by the POTUS is 'serious news'?

I love it here, dammit.

Sadiq Khan is going to turn Britain into an Islamic state.  He's part of a plan to transform the West in the same way they transformed the Middle East, persecuting the Christians from Iraq, Lebanon and Syria.  I have no sympathy for any Brit that votes for these fiends, they need to take their country back before it's too late (probably already is).

Sadiq Khan is muslim of pakistani background, so when he says that Trump "doesnt defend out values", he is completely correct. Trump is not sunni muslim.

Are even an American? Why do you think Pakistani muslim mayor of London should be allowed to tell president of United States where and when can he go?

Are you going to apologize to Pakistanis and Al-Quada supporters too, you cuck?

Fuck Khan, if he was doing his job as mayor, London wouldnt be be closer to 28 days later movie by the day.

I love it when y'all say cuck!

But anyway, I do believe the mayor of a city in a separate, sovereign state should be able to dictate which foreign dignitaries can enter their territory. Imagine if Assad wanted to come to some small town to make a speech, and the mayor didn't support his regime and protested. I don't have a problem with that, essentially, we have to respect their sovereignty. At the very least, he should be able to suggest to the governing body/state his opinions. Failure to do so would be quite undemocratic.

Would he be responsible for municipal allocation of terror resources, or would this be a state level responsibility? That's a serious question, I don't know, actually.

[matuson]

Trump doesn't know what culture is. He thinks he's No. 1 in the world and therefore allows himself to say what no one asks. I am also opposed to the mayor of London was Muslim, but it is the choice of the people of this town and it needs to be respected.

It can even be a joke or should be treated as a joke rather than as another scandal. Actually, people are already desensitize with politics that is why to many nothing can be shocking anymore. Trump is Trump just like the way Obama is Obama. Trump can be exotic and sometimes beyond comprehension but you give it to man as he successfully built his empire in business plus it is still too early to analyze and judge his administration...maybe we should give him at least half of his term.

Why do you so confidently declare that the Trump business Empire successful? You saw him return? Why don't you think he broke? Maybe he didn't have money and he took them in Russian, and should now be with them constantly surrendering the interests of America.
