reading it in his sing song voice and sniffing up a storm and making it clear he doesn’t believe a word of it.

That's his tell whenever he reads a prepared statement that he doesn't want to read.

I wonder if he can control himself from ad-libbing.

Itll be something like "both sides have staged attacks...very fine people....maybe it's a good thing"
I put nothing past him, only a few things I'd like to see put into him.

many people are saying that the incendiary, racist language you spew at your Traitor Rallies were the inspiration for these bombs being sent to people who you, president tRump, have publicly identified as enemies of the people, or as your personal enemies. Do you take responsibility for inspiring these terrorist acts against people who you have publicly called enemies of the people?

...or did the panel on Stephanie Ruhle try to spin this? Well, the bombs didn't go off. They had a obiviously defect preventing them from exploding. They were only sent to Democrats. What the hell!

Why are they giving him free time to campaign for the GOP.

He's not going to add anything and is probably going to blame it on black nfl players or a 2 year old Honduran child.

Seriously - can he shut up? Can the media CUT if he starts LYING.

I remember someone suggested that we watch ALL of Trump's speeches because that will cause his downfall. I'd rather drink cyanide.

Between Gabriel Giffords, the 25 victims of violence by anti-choice gunmen, the 168 dead at the hands of Tim McVeigh, the 113 victims of Eric Rudolph, nine dead at the hands of Dylann Roof, Heather Heyer's death at the hands of the Unite the Righters, (in addition to a vast number of other right wing terrorists too numerous to mention), I'm certain Trump will draw another false equivalency this week to better assuage the hurt feelings of his idiot base who want to (well, need to) believe that they never existed, and all violence comes from the left.

Because they are weak-willed idiots filled with fear of anything not white, not English, and not alcoholic.
