    Re: The Donald Trump thread

    The aftermath of a terrorist atrocity and the President of the US is tweeting:

    - Do you notice we are not having a gun debate right now? That's because they used knives and a truck!

    - At least 7 dead and 48 wounded in terror attack and Mayor of London says there is "no reason to be alarmed!"



    Just the kind of measured response we expect from the world's most powerful statesman, who (lest we forget) was curtseying to the Saudis only a week ago.

    Trump has access to intelligence that we don't, maybe what he is saying has a double meaning?

    If that's true, and you'll be lucky to find anyone who believes for a second that it is, do you think this is the correct way for him to deal with intelligence (that he has somehow got from another country's agency within hours of the event)?

    There is a definite hint of him alluding to something else IMO. Trump is a "Truther" and a "Birther" right, so that's why I am wondering if there isn't a double meaning to what he is saying, otherwise his choice of words don't make much sense given the current circumstances.
