Too limited to read the thread or are you have other issues? Trump politicized the speech to the Scouts, first POTUS to ever do this. Do try reading before posting nonsense.
I read it. I watched the speech actually. It was Trump's standard stump speech. This is a non-story but the real story is how Obama shamelessly shunned the Scouts for 8 years, in a completely unprecedented manner. So, your criticism is that Trump gave an adult speech in a room of mostly boys, but the last guy was actively against them. It comes off as pretty petty, given the historically disgusting behavior of Obama previously.
You mean like talking about how oppressed blacks are during a graduation ceremony from the old first lady?
False equivalence. Trump was politicizing the Scouts, your post is not an even close comparison as it did not refer to a political event/topic. Do try to think critically.
Somewhere along the way the Scouts turned into a quasi-religious right wing organization. It is sad but true. This spectacle only proves my point. Their facebook page is filled with livid parents. They may never fully recover from this speech and the lackadaisical response by their leaders. As soon as Trump started in on his stump speech and blasting Hillary and President Obama, they should have taken the mike away from him and chastised him on the spot while telling all the kids there that this was not behavior in keeping with the traditions of the BSA.
Seems to me Trump hit a home run with the scouts, how anyone could cast it differently is overlooking reality.
Indeed I do. Do you find any similarities between two events? Perhaps you think, these thousands of boy-scouts were taught, prepped to shout "Trump" and "Make America Great Again"? Boy-scouts, shouting Make America Great Again, looks very spontaneous to me and do it willingly and happily. At the kindergarten, little kids had to be taught singing Barak Hussein Obama, um, um, um. What a disgrace it was
I am so embarrassed. Now he's into using kids for his own gain. I know another one who did the same thing; https://www.google.com/imgres?imgur...aXVAhVD7SYKHdMCAREQMwg1KBAwEA&iact=mrc&uact=8 Trump is so disgusting. And the Sheep eat it up. Because of pure hatred the Right is all willing to see the country and its 250 years worth of work be flushed down the toilet. What a disaster this moron has been.
No, he taught them to make fun of Obama for not attending a boy scout meeting when Obama was a boy scout and Trump wasn't. Now that's the joke he should have told.
I realize it's funny to you, but it in the end, it became true, and untold thousands of Hitler youths lost their lives following a mad man. Personally, I'd hate to know my son was at that boy scout rally listening to another mad man. But then again, it's all funny to you right?
I just heard the audio and the orange birther-king attempted to turn it in to a political rally. He is mentally, emotionally and socially retarded.
Godwin's Law states that the longer any online debate goes on, the likelier it is that someone will play the Nazi Card. It's the rhetorical equivalent of going nuclear and stupid at the same time. -- John Avalon
What specifically was the home run? The home run where he criticized Obama for not attending the boy scout meeting in 2010, even though Obama was a boy scout and Trump wasn't? Did he tell the scouts about his cowardliness when he avoided the draft?
Donald Trump cries on Twitter everyday about how he is being persecuted and that everybody is out to get him.
You know that frosted some butthurt "progressive" asses. It's no wonder Thorinc is dropping a Godwin. BTW, I wonder if the Scouts chanted "We love Obama!" when Obama spoke at the Jamboree... ...oh, that's right - Obama never attended the Boy Scouts Jamboree...
Not only was old John right, I wonder if he ever knew just how right he was, because the Nazi card turned out true in the end?
