Trump just tweeted about 'Islamic terror' attack that killed 0\.
-
Earlier today, a suspected terrorist attempted to attack a French soldier with a machete near Le Louvre art gallery in the capital Paris.
Details remain thin on the ground, but the head of Paris police confirmed that they "are dealing with an attack from an individual who was clearly aggressive and represented a direct threat, and whose comments lead us to believe that he wished to carry out a terrorist incident.”
The attacker was shot five times and was shouting “Allahu akbar,” Mr Cadot added.
Responding to news of the incident, Donald Trump tweeted:
A new radical Islamic terrorist has just attacked in Louvre Museum in Paris. Tourists were locked down. France on edge again. GET SMART U.S.

Mr Trump's speed at condemning the attack comes at no surprise of course. He is famed for his reactionary tweeting style.
However, what is interesting is his selectiveness of which incidents he reacts to in a public forum.
Earlier this week, the residents of Quebec were left in mourning after a shooting at a city mosque left six dead.
The man charged in connection with the terrorist attack is French Canadian student Alexandre Bissonnette , who was a fan for Donald Trump and far-right nationalist politician Marine Le Pen.
Along with the six people killed, five were left in a critical condition and 12 others suffered minor injuries.
Canada’s Prime Minister Justin Trudeau called it a “terrorist attack on Muslims”.
So far, Donald Trump is yet to tweet anything to his many followers about the attack against the mosque in Quebec.
He did however, call Mr Trudeau privately to express his condolences.

Do you want to really talk about selective public outrage by a president about tragic events? Cause I have a list a mile long.
Here's the thing, let your bias go and you won't see a monster at every turn. You are in fact acting in a way that is as bigoted as the person you are accusing. Stop, breathe, and let it go!:ok1:
(For the record, the incident in Canada raises issues about bias as well, and the story that has emerged is in direct conflict with the original one that was coming from the scene. Again, in today's rush to inform the world of every happening, more news is false than that which is accurate.

Where's the list?

Dear dumbass,
Here's your story, you whiny little bitch!
My suggestion. Stop being such a Libtard and a mouse to the lies of the pied piping media like FOX NEWS and CNN.
I bet you voted for Hillary Clinton too. Be thankful you have a man in office doing everything to protect you.
Maybe you should spend less time bashing actual authority and do more research upon the Clinton Cartel. You're welcome.
flaming in the forums, please tone it down -
The Original Poster is being a drama queen as usual. ::)

Show me a politician who isn't selective and I'll be shocked. If anything, Trump seems to be more open and forthcoming than most. I can't stand his attitude, but I despised Hillary, too.
Your story is a non issue. -
A terror attack in a neighboring friendly country is an issue I expect the President to make a statement about. Trudeau does when we have attacks here.
The reason he didn't is because the victims are not white. No other reason…..

:police: Please tone down the language.
Polite/civil discussion please. :police:

Who? Trump? He spent the week bashing celebrities and pleading with America to pray for TV ratings. If you think he is doing anything to protect us you are out of your mind.
The Muslim ban (yes it is a Muslim ban….Giuliani confirmed on camera at the link below) is going to make ISIS stronger and more dangerous. These people have few options. ISIS recruiters are going to target these people and offer them food, water, shelter and a gun. They don't have any other choice.

Have you never heard of something called a joke? Especially such an OBVIOUS joke!
The Muslim ban (yes it is a Muslim ban….
Again, you are trying to use what somebody else says to try and prove a false narrative. Out of the approximately 1.75 BILLION muslims on this planet, less than 21 million are affected in any way by this order. There is also ZERO religious tests associated with this order. Have you actually read it or are you just regurgitating the lies that have been spouted by pundits in your bubble?
HOWEVER, I wish he would and could institute a ban in Islam. The religion's tenets are antithetical to a free and open society and it's treatment of homosexuals is abhorrent!

He told a mean joke about someone at a prayer service. He is the President of the United States of America. This is not how a President should behave.
I'm not using what others say. I'm using what TRUMP himself says. His campaign put out a press release promising to ban Muslims. Now they have. He also promised a Muslim database. The next step after that…...concentration camps.....

This coming from someone who gets their "facts" from CNN. Yeah, I'm impressed~! PFFT.

LOL. FOX NEWS~! Cracking the fuck up. Twister of words. The same people who made Hillary Clinton look like an innocent school girl during the campaign while all along they knew her plans to take over America with Obama's continuing ISIS Committee under ragheads in the White House.

There is no hope for someone this far down the rabbit hole. You apparently have lost all ability for rational thought. Flame out a little more, that way "when" they come rounding up the gays they can make sure they grab you!

I know you don't like to hear his won words because he says awful things but he does indeed say them. Anyway, I'm off to a benefit for the victims of Bowling Green.
-
At least Donald Trump and KellyAnne Conway know how many states there are.
-
Don't be surprised. He has so much hate.
No tweet about Canada though I notice.

Well, aren't you just a saint? This post doesn't reek of piousness and virtue signaling at all. Very subtle!
What ever happened to people engaging in something because it was important to them? Why has complacent, first-world "activism" turned into an excuse for self-aggrandizing Instagram photo-ops? It's very difficult to take seriously anyone who has to convey their moral superiority to others by exclaiming how busy they are with "benefits" and other pointless gatherings of bored, pampered, lazy, guilt-ridden Westerners patting one another on the back. Particularly when it's clearly just an excuse for reactionaries and the uninformed to deflect scrutiny.
