When asked about the Renee Good shooting, Trump steps on a rake

The Bulwark
@BulwarkOnline

Q: "Do you believe that deadly force was necessary?"

Trump: "It was highly disrespectful of law enforcement. The woman and her friend were highly disrespectful of law enforcement…Law enforcement should not be in a position where they have to put up with this stuff."

Who’s going to remind him about Jan 6th?

2. It's almost as if he knows that the ICE agent did not act because he feared for his life.

But because he was offended.

7. Why didn't he stick with his LIE that Renee Good "ran over" the ICE agent with her car?

And it's "hard to believe he survived" ... recovering in a hospital?

10. To repeat myself: ICE-holes are not law enforcement

They are immigration and customs enforcement. MPLS has a police department to enforce laws. St Paul has a police department Minnesota has law enforcement agencies--BCA and State Patrol. So why isn't anyone stopping ICE from making traffic stops, entering homes, churches and businesses in order to conduct law enforcement?

The power lies with him. He wants to continue to terrorize Americans.

17. I have a question for Schlump.

Leaving aside the question of whether Ms. Good actually WAS "disrespectful of law enforcement" (about which more later), I would like to ask the following: Hey, Donnie Boy, since when is being "disrespectful of law enforcement" a CAPITAL OFFENSE???

For the record, I don't believe Renee Good was disrespectful in any way to the ICEhole who felt entitled to appoint himself to be her executioner just because he was having a bad day or whatever. But even if she had been jumping up and down and screaming profanities in his face, he would not even almost have had the right to do what he did. No way in the fucking world.

I think that comment tells us a ton about Schlump, though. It's quite evident that he was responding to that question from the standpoint of what he would have considered a suitable reaction to someone he thought was being "disrespectful" to him. Hell, he probably perceived her so-called "disrespect" to be an insult to him personally and therefore feels that she deserved to be murdered. In fact, I would bet anything that he thinks the murder was perfectly fine and has no idea why anyone would be upset about it. That is just how warped, twisted, and completely depraved he is!

…to show respect to anyone in government or otherwise. I have a first amendment right to express disrespect to anyone in government or otherwise. It’s like Bush II, you have a right to protest as long as I don’t have to see it or hear it, ya know, free speech zones. Ain’t no zones
