He really needs to shut the hell up. We should be offering our support to our ally, not misquoting and deriding the mayor of their largest city.
I am completely disgusted by him. I hope the people of the UK know that he doesn't speak for most Americans.
So what did Trump say? From what I saw on local media, which we all know how great that is, he said something to the effect that "7 dead and 48 injured and there is no cause to be alarmed?"
If this isn't what he tweeted, please advise what he did tweet.
It is not going over well in the UK from all that I have read. Trump was already not popular there. His actions in the last 48 hours make it even worse. I am thinking he will not be warmly greeted there when OR if he ever visits as POTUS.
So if Trump is not like there, then the UK has to treat Trump with kind words as they do ISIS and sympathizers. Otherwise Trump will step up attacks on London.....twisted UK logic.
Trump has offered US help to the UK. Did it first moment.
Trump can criticize the idiot London mayor who accepts terrorism as a condition of city living.

The mayor said that people should expect to see increased police presence in the next few days and not to be alarmed by it. He was not telling people they shouldn't be upset about the attack.
After 9-11 our allies invoked article V. Our dear leader insults our strongest ally ' s mayor. Disgusting.
Trump has so little understanding or comprehension about his job that it is scary. I think he thinks he is president of Trump University instead of the president of the USA.
...he said something to the effect that "7 dead and 48 injured and there is no cause to be alarmed?"
Neatly demonstrating that he has the attention span of an oyster.
The mayor's announcement was this:
Quote:
Londoners will see an increased police presence today and over the course of the next few days. There’s no reason to be alarmed.
Calm, neat - we're increasing police, don't be alarmed about more uniforms on the street.
Trump, having the reading comprehension of a 6-year-old, takes "Don't be alarmed" out of context and decides that the best way the US can support an old stalwart ally is to attack the leader who's dealing with the crisis. It's an impulsive, stupid, disloyal and heartless comment. Neatly putting Trump's character on display.

If you have to resort to easily-proven lies to defend him, perhaps he's not worth defending?
Don't you guys get that with each ridiculous tweet, Trump sidelines himself more and more? European governments will shrug him off as being all noise and no signal, then start looking for someone intelligent in the administration to deal with.
I guess the only positive point is that there's no sycophant Trumpista US Ambassador to England to make matters worse. See the Trump administration hasn't gotten around to appointing one, governing is just so much work, guys.
