Trump Uses Newest London Attack To Push His Own Twisted Agenda
President Donald Trump has made it a habit of taking to Twitter to air his thoughts before he has all the facts. Once again, the President went after the attacks of the London Underground bombing before British police were able to announce any findings.
“Another attack in London by a loser terrorist.” he tweeted. “These are sick and demented people who were in the sights of Scotland Yard. Must be proactive!” Added Trump: “The travel ban into the United States should be far larger, tougher and more specific-but stupidly, that would not be politically correct!”
The President, as has become par for the course, used the attack to push his own agenda in the United States. Trump’s travel ban aims to keep people from six majority-Muslim countries from entering the United States.
British police say they are closely investigating the attack but have found no signs so far that the terrorists involved were from one of President Trump’s banned Muslim countries.
When British Prime Minister Theresa May was asked if the attackers were known to the country’s security services she said it’s “never helpful for anyone to speculate on what is an ongoing investigation.”
Trump has made it clear that he will refuse to condemn white supremacists and neo-Nazis but has no problem using attacks in other countries to support his own motives.
Here’s the Tweet the President sent without any information from British police.
Another attack in London by a loser terrorist.These are sick and demented people who were in the sights of Scotland Yard. Must be proactive!

He then focused on fighting terrorist activities online.
Loser terrorists must be dealt with in a much tougher manner.The internet is their main recruitment tool which we must cut off & use better!

In true Trump fashion, the President pushed his own agenda following the devastation in London, something we have become accustomed to in recent months.
The travel ban into the United States should be far larger, tougher and more specific-but stupidly, that would not be politically correct!

The 45th POTUS then made the absurd claim that his administration has somehow done more to fight ISIS in a few short months than the previous administration had accomplished in eight years.
We have made more progress in the last nine months against ISIS than the Obama Administration has made in 8 years.Must be proactive & nasty!

And in his ever growing attempt to destroy immigration laws in the United States, the President quickly turned his attention to legislation that would slow immigration and ultimately growth and progress in the USA.
CHAIN MIGRATION cannot be allowed to be part of any legislation on Immigration!
