The devil is in the details, look at how his sole response to the Portland stabbings was a tweet on his official POTUS account (obviously written by a staffer). Meanwhile, if a Muslim stabbed 3 White people you would see about 100 tweets from his real handle (realdonaldtrump).

I forget... did he tweet about the black Muslim that targeted and shot and killed three white men earlier this year in California?



Europeans targeting Muslims for killing is an anomaly. Muslims targeting Europeans is the REAL pattern we're coming to grips with these days.

Yeah, but there was a real fog of war aspect to this attack. The British police aren't as quick releasing information about the alleged attacker as they are here in the US and I read all sorts of reports about this attack. One that was running is the attacker was Turkish and this was Muslim on Muslim violence.

If Trump had jumped into this blasting tweets the libs would've ripped him apart for that too.

But who's kidding who. The libs here don't give a damn about an attack on a London mosque...this is just their usual, trite way to snipe at Trump.

BFD. Where are the statements from heads of state when gangs go on a killing spree?

WASHINGTON — President Trump on Monday continued an apparent pattern of selectively commenting on hate crimes and terrorist attacks, leading White House critics to accuse him of failing to personally condemn violence carried out by non-Muslims.

Nearly 14 hours after a driver plowed through Muslim worshippers outside of a London mosque, killing at least one, Trump’s usually noisy personal Twitter account was uncharacteristically silent. White House Press Secretary Sean Spicer said in an off-camera press briefing that the administration’s “thoughts and prayers” were with those affected, but Trump personally had not weighed in on any format.
Trump, as president, has repeatedly promised to heal cross-racial divisions, but his slow reaction to violence against minorities or hate-related violence not perpetrated by Muslims is drawing scorn.
“If it was about terrorism, you would recognize these incidents regardless of who does it,” said Carol Anderson, a scholar of race and social justice at Emory University, in a Monday interview. “But this is situational. This situational concern underlies everything in this administration.”
“So when acts of terror are committed by Muslims, @POTUS can’t wait to Tweet. When they are committed AGAINST Muslims, nothing,” David Axelrod, a former advisor to President Obama, said in a tweet on Monday.

NO excuse but stupidity for anyone to be surprised by this! The racist hate-monger showed his colors his entire campaign! Better silence..... than his "prayers are with you" BS!

"critics say"

Do you really expect his critics to say anything else?

Thread FAIL!
