The issue I have with it is that it's not a proposed policy change. My brother told me years ago that "I will form a commission/committee" is politician for "**** you".
I'm not a career politician and I have opinions on what is reasonable and should sell very well with the public, I don't believe he doesn't. I suspect that he isn't saying anything more because he has had strong support with the police for decades and he doesn't want to lose it by doing what is popular and he's not saying what he really thinks because he knows he will lose a LOT of votes if he does.
I think I heard Kanye alone donated like $2MM to his family.

Trump gets crucified (pun definitely intended) for holding a Bible at a church but the Congress Dems drape Kenya clothes over their shoulders while taking a knee in a moment of silence, and not a peep. Well, except for the dozens of cameras going off during the moment of silence.
Lessons learned:
1) If you're a congresswoman, wear long pants, not a skirt
2) If you're trying to appear legit, don't play with your phone during said event
3) If you're an ancient dinosaur, don't kneel for a moment of silence. You'll need help up
Lulz. What a ****ing charade.
Is this a serious post? Trump was criticized for holding a bible up in front of a church, he was criticized for holding a bible up in front of a church after gassing peaceful protestors to clear a path to get there.
Unless I missed it, none of the Politicians who knelt and had a moment of silence threw gas to clear away peaceful protestors to get there.
C’mon Dbroncisno, you’re normally smarter than this.
Once you realize it’s not who specifically gave the order it’s the total optics of protestors being gassed so Trump can walk to a church you might have a brain.
Seriously, you really don’t see why people would critique that? Even if not a single politician gave an order to tear gas and disperse a crowd to open a space to kneel, if a crowd of peaceful protestors had been gassed so they could kneel for a photo op yeah they’d be getting a rash of **** too.
Sorry. I was pretty certain that you all have been saying that trump ordered this. Am I seeing a crack in that position?
So, you're saying that it doesn't matter if Trump ordered it. The fact that it happened is on trump. Lol. Well, the fact that kenya clothes were draped over the shoulders of Dem congressmen for a photo opportunity seems to fall in line with the complaints that I've been reading.
I don’t know who you mean by “you all” since this is the first time I’ve commented on it.
Ok, even if you want to try and equivocate. You’re saying democratic politicians who knelt should receive the same backlash for wearing Kenyan clothes As Trump has received for a photo op in which peaceful protestors were gassed?
Does that sound like a reasonable opinion to have to you?
I also want to ask, because you seem to be going with the ignorance defense for Trump (which to be fair, claiming Trump is ignorant is a pretty safe bet in most things), but given how central “Trump didn’t order it” is to your position:
Has Trump apologized for that? Has he said it shouldn’t have happened? Did he say he wouldn’t have gassed them had he known?
I guess you haven't been paying much attention then. This has been discussed here at length and it seems that many/most of us think that whether it was his direct orders or it just happened on his watch and he refused to acknowledge or apologize for it, it's still a really bad look.
Yyeeaahh....keep stretching for that "but what about" moment. Though I'm sure in your mind you just swished a deep three pointer.So, you're saying that it doesn't matter if Trump ordered it. The fact that it happened is on trump. Lol. Well, the fact that kenya clothes were draped over the shoulders of Dem congressmen for a photo opportunity seems to fall in line with the complaints that I've been reading.
