Trump says he received an envelope in the mail that contains ricin???

Story from MSN.com

Oh he will ride this to the end?

1. My guess is false flag play on sympathy

[imanamerican63]

2. Yep! That is what was thinking!

[Delphinus]

3. Welcome to DU!

Glad to have you here.

5. Mail send in from Canada, apparently.

15. Yeah it sounds like a stupid story

I guess it could be true but they lie so much you just can’t believe anything

[SharonClark]

4. I think he meant "rice" in one of those mysterious packets sent from China.

[Thekaspervote]

8. Please don't even say that!

[Hekate]

17. Delete this yourself. Nothing funny about it, OneBlueDotBama

7. I am sure that this mail never got close to him.

14. Exactly. He didn't "receive" anything

If any of this is even real, it sure didn't get to him.

19. Jared probably shared some of his cocaine stash with his father-in-law.

He noticed Trump wasn't sniffling as much as he usually does.

22. It was a letter or a package that was intercepted well before it got to the White House.

Its just another one of his lies. I dont even believe him when he acted surprised when being told by a journalist after his rally that RBG had passed away. That would have been the first thing he would have been told by one of his enablers when he got of the stage.

9. That is procedurally impossible

All mail, along with deliveries, go to a remote receiving facility outside the Beltway.

[matt819]

10. Nonsense

He didn’t receive shit. All mail is screened off site. This has been reported for decades. Nothing like ricin would even get close to the buffoon. Was it found during screening? Maybe. In which case it would be investigated as a terrorist threat or even an attack. And you know this us something Barr would relish reporting in excruciating and undoubtedly false detail.

[Sunsky]

11. Who sent it? Putin?

Yeah right

[octoberlib]

12. Sounds to me like a Jacob Wohl stunt.

[dameatball]

13. Smuggled in on a Big Mac?

[Rorey]

16. Now THAT is a possibility

Shhhh!

[paleotn]

18. So did Obama...

Twice.

20. Putin is using new methods? ;) nt

[2naSalit]

21. I think it's a BS story.

He's not the headline all day today so he has to get his attention and, if possible, sympathy.

[imanamerican63]

24. Hence my question mark.

I think it a hoax to deter from all the other bad and then he can say “see they are trying to attack me any way they can“?

[bamagal62]

23. We could only hope.
