President Trump said that he had no plans to call Governor Tim Walz of Minnesota after a man assassinated a state lawmaker there and wounded another over the weekend.

"I think the governor of Minnesota is so whacked out, I'm not calling him," Trump told reporters.[image or embed]

Pettiness in a time of tragedy is peak Trump. I'm sure the MAGA boys who post here have their excuses lined up.

Sure, Tim Walze has been so respectful of Trump. I wouldn't call that fat ----- either, especially after it was his appointee that was the assassin.

The MAGA Trump voter?

Every person on his hit list was a Democrat.

Donald Trump isn't The President of the United States.

He's a wannabe mob boss.

There are his goons, and his enemies.

You know who you are.

Fishpoo gets his queues on how to be a disgusting ass from Sen Mike Lee.

Trumpy is all-in on being a bigly Dick (the biggest dick ever in the history of dicks!) and a coward.

Fishpoo wants to be just like him.

When he grows up.

Trump is such a man-baby without the "man."

Fishpaw ...

Do you really think this is how the president of United States should conduct himself after the shootings of two lawmakers, their spouses and their pets? Put aside your politics for just a moment.

The constant incivility, not just on this topic, but on every topic that he ever encounters. It's counterproductive at best. Our country has a population of 350 million people. You are never going to get everyone to agree. So you have to find ways to bridge those difficult chasms that separate us. The president has an important responsibility to do that. Am I wrong?

If it was Waltz family then no. Do you think when Waltz first came out and said it was politically motivated he knew it was one of his appointees? Did Waltz contact Trump after he was shot? Dems made this bed.

Still going with that debunked "appointee" distortion of reality?

Who could know this maga maniac was infiltrating organizations to get a list of people to murder?

"Did Waltz contact Trump after he was shot?"

Trump was a candidate at the time. It's not like Waltz had his private number like Putin and KGB does.

But Walz did very publicly denounce the attack on Trump, stating, "Violence has no place in American politics"

Trumpy should be the one denouncing violence in America. Not provoking it and promoting it.

He also stated he was "Praying for the safety of former President Trump and everyone at his rally in Pennsylvania".
