http://www.rawstory.com/2017/05/hes-been-neutered-trump-supporters-melt-down-after-president-calls-islam-one-of-worlds-great-faiths/
As President Donald Trump is getting hammered on the left for not using the expression radical Islamic terrorism during his speech in Saudi Arabia, he is also taking heat from his avid supporters who were drawn to him due to his anti-Mulsim rhetoric when he is in the U.S.
His crime?
Calling Islam one of the worlds great faiths.
That double hit ducking Islamic terrorism while praising the religion was not received very well on Twitter.

I'm hoping resignation is starting to look appealing to him.

(2,050 posts)Somebody posted he was really flushed, I took a look and he's flippin RED FACED, must be because he was with the reds, his handlers and paymasters.
I was hoping the red face would be an everyday now kinda thing, and it may just be.....
I can't wait to see him being questioned by people who already know the answers, glorious!.

(24,259 posts)you Trumpsters were his marks and you foolishly bought the sh-tuff this shyster and the enabling bandwagon Republican politicians and their owned and operated propaganda media were selling (and still are).
Don't worry though Fox, Drudge, Breitbart, etc will quickly gild and bedazzle this pile of pig poo for you and have you happy to buy the next load until you're 'shocked' to find that you, your friends, your loved ones and our country are drowning as Trump and his rich buddies sit way up in their golden towers of money laughing.

(30,819 posts)I am glad he didn't say it. I'm glad his speech was more appropriate and conciliatory than what we would have expected.
And I am delighted that his followers are mad!

(9,350 posts)More than likely people on the left are just mocking Donald Trump and pointing out his hypocrisy. I think many on the left are like you, happy he left the radical islamic terrorism talk home. However, I think many on the left are also willing to laugh while pointing out that, yet again, when it really counts, Donald Trump checked his tough talk.

(30,819 posts)I certainly have nothing but scorn for his hypocrisy, even while being glad he didn't ramp up ISIS recruitment efforts with a fiery, anti-Muslim speech.

(2,809 posts)Just need to go into the bathroom. Fill the tub with water. Lukewarm most comfortable. Then dunk your head in face down. Feel the bubbles caress each side of your head. Then breathe in. It's okay, you can breathe water. Soon you'll not care if Trump is impeached. Then we can truly proceed to Make America Great Again.

I don't think he even realizes Trump curtsied to King Salman after the King put the medal on his neck. Stone doesn't watch MSM news, and Fox sure didn't show it. In fact they ran a false headline that "Trump shakes hands with Saudi leader, doesn't bow as Obama appeared to do," showing Trump at the airport, not the medal ceremony.
Wait till his base gets a load of Trump's curtsy:

(45,579 posts)I was wondering how quickly a strong alpha male can become a weak cuckold. Fairly quickly apparently.
I doubt he has any real respect for anyone. He has business interests with the Saudis and doesn't want to piss off the country that sent the most terrorists to kill Americans, finances ISIS, and has the worst human rights record. So obviously he leaves them off his Muslim travel ban and sells them weapons in a very Reaganesque way.
Jared even called up the Lockheed Martin CEO mid-meeting and asked her to lower her price for a ballistic missile defense system.
Sure Trumps. Go on with your bad selves.
