This Is What Donald Trump Thought Of President Obama's Speech

Tyler Durden's picture




 

With The Donald once again firmly back in the lead of the GOP presidential nominee race...

 

He decided that he would "live tweet" President Obama's address tonight on "keeping America safe."

 

President Obama looked decidely tired...

Here is the full speech...

AP details the speech...

8:23 p.m.

 

President Barack Obama says the American Muslim community needs to be a partner in the fight against radical Islam.

 

Obama says Muslims can send credible, effective counter messages and undermine jihadist propaganda.

 

Obama's remarks were part of a prime-time address on the threat of terrorism and the fight against the Islamic State group in Iraq and Syria. At least one of the suspected shooters in the past week's massacre in San Bernardino expressed support for the Islamic State online.

 

Obama is calling the Islamic State "thugs, killers" and a "cult of death." He says they represent a "tiny fraction" of the Muslim community.

 

The president says the West is not at war against Islam. He is cautioning Americans not to single out Muslims.

 

8:20 p.m.

 

President Barack Obama says the U.S. can and must make it harder for would-be mass shooters to kill by making it harder for them to obtain guns.

 

Obama is giving an Oval Office address on terrorism and the U.S. response following attacks in California and Paris. He's calling for Congress to prohibit people suspected of terrorism or on the no-fly list from buying guns.

 

Obama says he knows some people reject all gun safety measures. But he says no matter how effective law enforcement and intelligence is, they can't identify every would-be shooter. Obama says it's a matter of national security to prevent those people from getting guns.

 

Obama has urged stricter gun laws following the California shootings, but like previous mass shootings, those calls have met resistance from gun control opponents. Gun rights advocates oppose the no-fly list proposal because they say it violates the rights of people who haven't been convicted of a crime.

 

8:15 p.m.

 

President Barack Obama says he understands why Americans are worried about the threat of terrorism but is reassuring Americans the U.S. will overcome it.

 

Obama says "we will prevail by being strong and smart." He says Americans cannot give into fear.

 

8:10 a.m.

 

President Barack Obama says it's clear the two killers in the California shootings had gone down the "dark path of radicalization."

 

Obama is giving an Oval Office address on terrorism and the U.S. response following attacks in California and Paris. He's calling it an "act of terrorism designed to kill innocent people."

 

Obama says the killers had stockpiled weapons and ammunition. But Obama says there's no evidence the killers were directed by a terrorist organization overseas. He says there's also no evidence they were part of a broader network in the U.S.

ome headlines from what appeared very much a repetition of previous vacuous speeches...

  • *OBAMA: `NO EVIDENCE' SHOOTERS DIRECTED FROM TERRORISTS OVERSEAS
  • *OBAMA CALLS CALIFORNIA SHOOTING `AN ACT OF TERRORISM'
  • *OBAMA SAYS GROWING EFFORT TO POISON MINDS ONLINE
  • *OBAMA: THREAT FROM TERRORISM IS REAL, WE WILL OVERCOME IT
  • *OBAMA SAYS U.S. WILL HUNT DOWN TERRORISTS WHEREVER NECESSARY
  • *OBAMA SAYS WILL URGE TECH LEADERS TO WORK W/ LAW ENFORCEMENT
  • *OBAMA REITERATES CALL FOR CONGRESS TO PASS GUN LAWS
  • *OBAMA: LAWMAKERS MUST MAKE IT HARDER FOR PEOPLE TO KILL
  • *OBAMA REITERATES WANTS NEW FORCE AUTHORIZATION ON ISLAMIC STATE
  • *OBAMA SAYS MUSLIM LEADERS MUST OPPOSE ISLAMIC STATE'S IDEOLOGY
  • *OBAMA: IT'S `OUR RESPONSIBILITY' TO REJECT ANTI-ISLAM MEASURES
  • *OBAMA SAYS `FREEDOM IS MORE POWERFUL THAN FEAR'

So, to sum up:

  • Domestically, terrorism is here and we need gun control, internet censorship, to disable encryption, and to work with "Muslim allies" to fix it.
  • Abroad, Congress needs to agree to Obama's demands to do more bombing... because that seems to have worked.

Yes We Can. But Lets Not.'s picture

Speech excerpt: "The terrorist threat has evolved into a new phase,” Obama said. “I know that after so much war, many Americans are asking whether we are confronted by a cancer that has no immediate cure...The threat from terrorism is real, but we will overcome it."

That is so rich.  The guy recognizes that we are confronted by a cancer, and he fails to recognize that he himself - and the vastly oversized gubmint he as a statist has propagated - is the cancer.  He intervenes in the lands of the Muslims, he slaughters the Muslims, he encourages the Muslims to immigrate to the US, and despite his spying on you me and grandma and even though he employs something like 15,000 gubmint security analysts, he completely fails to weed out the radicalized Muslims.  He looks everywhere for that darned cancer, except in the mirror.  Utterly, hopelessly clueless.

That was a fast read report. Just skipped evey line that began with, obama. The cark farksuckin niggachruian stooge is doin what the puppet masters set em all up to do, mon. Take down America.

Sure, it is easy to see that men in black carried out the murders in SB, as the other team in black hit the well watched patsies for set up leaving them cuffed in van as they thought they were going to the grocery store.

Silly darn babalonians only have one game plan. Disarm America so they can destroy the last armed country that can make a difference between Good, and evil. One can put many names on many things, but evil has only one ugly morbid face under all the names, mon.

In the coming war on evil, one stands in the Good Light of the Most High, or they will fall in the darkness of ignorance. This Soul walks the path by the Rites of God, not by the rites of man.

As always, follow yer heart mates. Be not deceived by your own self. Good is always going to be well known, and naturally embraced in the heart part where you are. Evil will always be evil stupid, in that it will always do something evil, and moar stupid than the last stupid thing it did. Remember, in creation, evil was not part of the original world. Or better put, God did not create evil in this 3-D world, man created evil in the material world. The Holy Son's prayer should end thus; and deliver us from evil....the evil within our own selves.

Golly darn, Alfalfa. It would be all too funny if the stupid evil were not the birther of far too many govt sponsored tragedies, and false flag events to perpetuate the evil of the globalist maniac insano caca-doo-da-loo agenda to kill off every biological life form on the planet.

Hummmmm...things to ponder along the riverside as you watch your children play. Pray for sanity and the power of love to rule over more souls peacefully in the ongoing war on evil.

Tweet! Oh yay and ah, Sir Donald, weza gonna has to have a long talk after you get elected. That is, if we do not see moar and moar of the govt sponsored false flag events to cause the elections to be put off because of say; the niggachurian candidate pulls his martial law horsewash after yet another stupid govt sponsored flase flag event, so he can be the bankster puppet/cia/bush/niggchurian candidate stooge dicktator for the rest of the nazi americas life, just before every country gangs up and sez enuff is enuff and gives the nazi regime in washington dc the same thing america gave the nazi german regime in Germany. The world will stand up and give an ovation when first isreal is wiped off the map, and then america is thereafter. The only thing about that is, after a month of radiation circulating in the jet streams around the world, most of all the other biological life forms will be killed off also.

Kinda stupid to even consider, eh?

Since when are grenades something you pick up at the local store? Also: cover features dumb white people. (C'mon, NY, we all "get" it.) Yet a badge of slavery was preventing blacks from owning guns. 

Yet the Supreme Court has affirmed that the right to keep and bear arms is one of many "specific guarantees . . . provided by the Constitution." And let's remember that our highest court is bound by the intent of the framers of the Constitution.

As Stephen Halbrook points out, in this detailed legal overview, when it comes to the 1st Amendment, somehow those pushing for the demise of the 2nd, don't consider "the people" to be some special class of orators (versus every citizen). There is no evidence that the 2nd Amendments means anything other than what gun advocates (and legal scholars like Georgetown's Randy Barnett, Yale's Sandford Levinson, Harvard's Lawrence Tribe) say it does.

Ignorant Bliss is the favored approach of media.

to declare a state of emergency that suspends elections, and

to do everything in his power to kill as many infidels as he can,

Just hours before Obama's speech, It was confirmed that US led airstrikes on Assad’s Syrian Arab Army controlled Ayash military base in Deir ez-Ezzor killed at least 1, possibly 6 Syrian soldiers, with 13 wounded and 2 Syrian army tanks destroyed.
Immediately after the US airstrikes, ISIS forces attacked and overpowered the Syrian Ayash military base


The Syrian Arab Army has been in control of the Ayash military base for the entirety of the war;
 
a fact that US forces either knew or could easily have immediately confirmed with Damascus.
 
This  points to the US air strike being as deliberate and premeditated as the Turkish shooting down of the Russian fighter plane last week.

Anyone that believes this could have been an "accident" due to "the fog of war", or that the US
was unaware of the ISIS oil convoys into Turkey is either a total fool or a brainwashed dupe.

The US military is not that incompetent, foolhardy, or undisciplined.
The US has the most sophisticated communications equipment in the world,
as well as the most carefully worked out strategic battle plans.

This was no accident.

No articles in ZH about how criminal putin regime with his cronies stealing money away with Platon system for truckers. No coverage of mass protests:

 

Russian Truckers Target Moscow to Protest Road Toll, Putin Ally

Russian truck drivers opposed to new road tolls are planning to drive to Moscow, threatening to paralyze the capital’s clogged highways in a protest that also targets one of President Vladimir Putin’s closest allies.

Drivers from 15 regions, who protested by slowing traffic outside the capital throughout November, will participate in the “March on Moscow” on Friday to demand the measure’s reversal, Alexander Kotov, head of the Inter-regional Union of Truckers, said by phone. Traffic police in neighboring regions have begun to detain trucks moving toward Moscow, he said.

“The truckers are heading to the Czar,” Kotov said, adding that the new toll threatens to put independent truckers out of business and there is little evidence that the money collected will go toward Russia’s notoriously bad roads.

The protests are the most widespread since an opposition push in 2011 and 2012, when tens of thousands of people took to the streets against what they called fraudulent elections and Putin’s return to the presidency. With a company part-owned by the family of one of the president’s closest allies facing criticism for its role in running the new toll system, the Kremlin is taking the threat seriously. It dispatched Transport Minister Maxim Sokolov to St. Petersburg over the weekend to meet with the disgruntled truckers, although they failed to reach a compromise.

Putin Ally

The Platon toll system began in November to charge truckers by the kilometer for use of the federal highway system. It is run by a company part-owned by Igor Rotenberg, son of Arkady Rotenberg, a billionaire ally of Putin’s who has been sanctioned by the U.S. and the European Union. All money collected by Rotenberg’s RT-Invest Transportation Systems is transferred directly to the Federal Highway Fund, according to the company’s press service.

Opposition leader Alexey Navalny, who accuses the Rotenbergs of corruption stemming from their relationship with the president, has written in support of the truckers, calling the Platon system an “ideal example” of the benefits of friendship with Putin.

Moscow was the fourth-most congested city in the world last year, according to TomTom’s annual Traffic Index of congestion. Istanbul commuters faced the worst traffic.

Seriously, I just got through hunting ????? (wild boar) and we had, besides this American, a man from Afghanistan and 6 more Russians. Two are truckdrivers as their living and you would never find a happier group of men. We shot 44 times at boars all over the place. Not a damn boar died and lucky we did not either.Not here to hunt really, just enjoy life with the guys...

But then life is damn good here in Russia and I know that will simply upset your apple cart and personally glad it will. So toss some hate, I will be hunting ????? for the next few days...

I really get tired of seeing your pathetic attempt at dislocation of the truth. They must pay you well, for why else would you lie so much. I live here in Russia and have for 10 years now. Good country...

Tyler, 

I figured out that earlier issue with my BlackBerry Passport trying to download a file. Went the file management. 194 Apple watch directory file. Have no clue. It's gone, so is the browser crash issue. I'll blame my wife since she fuck's up Windows 7 and 8 OS all the time. I charge her for sex, after I fix her two computers. /LOL. 

She uses my phone, never know what she downloads. I let her use my phone phone because I don't have any shady liberal girlfriends Two day's ago, she broke her BlackBerry Z10 screen. This time it didn't fall off the back of car trunk. Actually, screen survived. Plastic dent in framework prior. Thank goodness are neiborbors called phone to return to us. Charleston, SC is a great city. Great people.  

She just acted surprised when I told her that the blackberry fucking Z10 screen is cracked. Her reply, I don't know how that happened. My reply, do you remember when you dropped your Galaxy 5 on the tile floor in Marco Island last month? Fucking crickets. I should start up a phone insurance company exclusive for my wife. Just a bit of true humor. Problem fixed Tyler. Thanks.

Atheists DO have faith. They simply have no basis for their faith. Atheism is an assertion of something which can never be proven true - ergo it is a position of faith.
