http://www.rawstory.com/2017/06/despicable-am-joy-guest-says-trump-may-rush-to-london-after-ignoring-portland-domestic-terrorist-attack/
Appearing on MSNBCs AM Joy, commentator Dean Obeidallah went off on Donald Trump after it was reported that the president was considering a trip to London to show solidarity following Saturday nights terrorist attacks.
Speaking with Joy Reid, Obeidallah who is a Muslim agreed with the MSNBC host that Trumps attacks on Muslims creates a petri dish to grow more for militants.
Obeidallah then addressed rumors Trump wants to go to London next week.
I think it is remarkable that Donald Trump might go to the U.K., the commentator explained. He didnt go to Portland when two were killed by white supremacists. He didnt come to New York in March when a white supremacist from Baltimore traveled to kill an African-American man. He didnt visit Muslims around this country where they had their mosques burned down. And other minority communities Jewish, and Latinos have suffered hate crimes since he was elected.

(384 posts)It is my understanding that it is impossible for Republicans to win the electoral college due to the rigged voting system. Nine on you Crazy Diamond.

While he's there, he could be kidnapped and sent to an actual college.
* Insert sarcasm tag... no Orange Men are going to be kidnapped.

He can insult London's Mayor from here.

(2,795 posts)If that asswipe wants to go there and gloat about his stand on terrorism and muslim bans, and if he is not wanted - no police or whatever equivalent of our secret service they have in Britain should be offered. They have their own security issues to deal with and citizens to provide safety to, not that dumbass.
If that bloated orange blob thinks he's not totally safe and secure, he won't go.
