Do You Think It's Odd That Trump Has Stayed Silent On The Quebec City Terrorist Attack?

[sp1814]

He was (very rightly) quick off the mark with the Louvre attack, but seems reluctant to publicly condemn the other terrorist attack of last week.

This seems strange - especially for a man who seems to spend a shockingly large amount of time posting his thoughts on Twitter.

Of course it is Naomi, of course it is. Ironic wink.

[jim360]

Like it or not, Naomi, he's been less vocal about it than usual.

[naomi24]

Zacs-master, keep your ironic wink. Assuming that other people share your penchant for duplicity when it suits their agenda is a mistake.

//Like it or not, Naomi, he's been less vocal about it than usual.//

Perhaps that’s because attacks by Muslim madmen are by far more prevalent. He has not stayed silent as has been erroneously claimed. End of this particular fairy tale.

[Zacs-Master]

When have I been duplicitous? Examples please.

[naomi24]

Zacs-master, My pleasure. See my post here at 09:58 this morning.

You'll have to explain what I've said which is duplicitous in that thread.

Duplicitous to me would be attacking those who condemn Trump but not openly coming out in support of him in case they find they look rather silly down the line.

[ladybirder]

I don't see it as supporting someone because you take a view that what is being said about a person is wrong.

[Zacs-Master]

Really? Then what is it?

[andy-hughes]

Naomi - while you attempt to defend President Trump, the facts remain indisputable -

Since before he was even a candidate, and on every day from then to now, President Trump has been an avid Twitterer - all day every day.

Despite it being far from the dignified and measured means of correspondence used by other world leaders, he continues to spout his nasty thin-skinned invective to all and sundry in his usual persecution-complex-direct-to-fingers-bypassing-brain manner.

Except for this incident, when personally he has remained silent.

It is no excuse to say that his 'people' spoke for him, when he never needs them to any other time, and lets everyone have his nonsensical stream-of-thoughtless pap every minute he is awake.

President Trump's chosen medium to tell the world his thoughts is Twitter, and on this occasion he had nothing to say.

That says something about the way his mind (?) works.

Except for this incident, when personally he has remained silent.

You just couldn't make this up, Trump is regularly criticised by the usual suspects, for his constant 'tweeting' yet now in this instance, he has failed to do so, they are once again 'up in arms'.

No pleasing some.

AOG - //You just couldn't make this up, Trump is regularly criticised by the usual suspects, for his constant 'tweeting' yet now in this instance, he has failed to do so, they are once again 'up in arms'.

President Trump is ... The President.

Every single move he makes, and those he doesn't make, are going to be scrutinised in minute detail by people all over the world - including us on here on the AB.

And yes, he will never please all the people all the time.

Those two simple premises are built-in to the office of President, and although President Trump is obviously new to all this, and has not yet grasped these, among other fundamentals, you and I are certainly old enough to know that this is how it works.

Is President Trump damned if he does and damned if he doesn't? Of course he is! He's the President!

[andy-hughes]

I am given to understand, and as always I am open to correction if required, that President Trump's Twitter account - the hot line to his latest bleating and moaning, has been silent on this particular issue, and that is why that omission has been raised.

You would like that, so we can't all see what others think of such repetitive anti Trump posts.

He hasn't stayed silent ... On The Quebec City Terrorist Attack.

Zacs-master,

from Labdybirder // I don't see it as supporting someone because you take a view that what is being said about a person is wrong.//

From you: // Really? Then what is it?//

It’s telling the truth.

[naomi24]

[hereIam]

I support him ...

[andy-hughes]

Talbot - // He hasn't stayed silent ... On The Quebec City Terrorist Attack. //

Actually - he has.

His office haven't - but he has, and that is the important distinction that is being pointed out.
