Trump demands suspect be executed. Now look at the picture he's holding up

[D. Spaulding]

and we all know exactly why he's doing that. Inspiring mob action again?

1. Flashback to Willie Horton.

4. flashback to the Exonerated Five

2. Someone should hold up Maxwell's photo right back at him

He set her free (essentially).

3. He just tainted any trial

Way to go, bozo.

5. .

7. There was almost a mistrial declared in Charles Manson's trial because he held up

a paper with the headline that Nixon thought he was guilty. It was considered very inappropriate of Nixon to voice an opinion on an ongoing trial at the time.

Now Trump openly declares what the verdict and punishment should be and nobody bats an eyelash.

We're in deep trouble.

8. When Richard Nixon weighed in and declared Charles Manson guilty . . .

it was highly controversial and almost resulted in a mistrial. He was forced to retract the comments.

9. He said the same of the Central Park Five. His words hold no merit.

The only people who still take him seriously are those he can control and those who rely on his hatred to validate their own behavior.

10. That's not this moron's place

And last I saw NC doesn’t have close to full Democratic control. Cooper has the crime rate lower than many other red states.

11. We don't need to ask why he felt it necessary to hold that photo up, and we all know

why he's doing it, don't we?

12. But he would have been happy to deport her

I hate him and the rest of the GOP.

[Johonny]

13. So his immigration raid hasnt stopped crime?

When an immigrant kills an American we need to create a law with the Americans name attached and deport all immigrants.

When a black American kills a white immigrant, under Trump's watch, we need to kill the black man before the trial?

I give up, what's his message other than racism, because that is the only consistent thing here. When in doubt, be racist.

14. I'm a normal functioning country

If this was a normal country he would’ve just blown the prosecution’s case out of the water. I don’t disagree with what he said but the President interjecting himself into a case before any trial is very dangerous. I believe there was a president years ago that said something much more benign than this and nearly lost the case for the prosecution because of it.
