The big cover-up
by digby
Apparently the media is covering up … terrorist attacks.
Here’s Trump giving a speech earlier to day to a bunch of wildly cheering military commanders in Florida:
Radical Islamic terrorists are determined to strike our homeland as they did on 9/11, as they did from Boston to Orlando to San Bernardino, and all across Europe. You have seen what happened in Paris and Nice. All over Europe, it’s happening,” Trump said. “It’s gotten to a point where it’s not even being reported. And in many cases the very, very dishonest press doesn’t want to report it. They have their reasons, and you understand that.”
This from the president who hasn’t mentioned, even once, the white supremacist who mowed down half a dozen people in a mosque in Quebec last week. But then the white supremacist is a big fan of Trump’s so he figures he must be doing something right.
I’m just going to run this one more time:
It’s nothing more than racist fearmongering. He’s looking for a war against Muslims, here and abroad. And he’ll be happy to start persecuting Mexicans and incarcerating millions more African Americans to keep “us” “safe.”
Also, he’s nuts.
