In reply to the discussion: Donald Trump suggests President Obama was involved with Orlando shooting [View all]okojo
(76 posts)17. Trump is not a lunatic..
Trump is dangerous. However there is a very clear method to his madness. He states something to the nth degree, (Obama resigns, banned Muslims etc.) that puts all the media attention on him.
Clearly Trump is being disingenuous, perhaps a bit evil, cynical and frankly he doesn't care that 49-50 people were massacred by a troubled loner with easy access to an assault rifle and large enough quantity of ammunition to kill 49-50 people and severely injured over 50 more. Trump is using this to promote himself.. which is why he is working overtime to get as much media attention on this..

OP
After his asinine gloating about being "right", it's no surprise that he's doubling down.

I'm convinced there's as much depth to his character as that of a five year old child.

There is plenty of depth to a five year old, just little experience or knowledge

Well, for the last year, I have thought things he has said means he will implode, this may be it

actually it's trump's attitudes towards guns that allowed the radicalized killer to buy guns.

Do you think the repubs really believe him? Or are they just pretending to? nt
