Toobin: 50 People Died in New Zealand and Trump’s Worked Up About ‘The Tragedy That Befell Jeanine Pirro’

‘Maybe Melania should tell him to be best’

RUSH EXCERPT:

SIDDIQUI: “Here’s the thing. When you look at the president tweeting his support, you can’t help but focus on the timing. This is two days after terrorist attacks on the Muslim community in New Zealand left 50 people dead, 50 others wounded. The president’s advisors are out there in public saying this president is not anti-muslim, there’s nothing to suggest he’s anti-muslim, even though there are a litany of comments he has made which have trafficked in islamophobia. Now he’s saying bring back Jeanine, who questioned the patriotism. These are precisely the kinds of moments that do call into question the president’s feelings toward the Muslim community and the animus he appears to hold and continue to perpetuate even when this is a community that is under attack and victim to an increasing number of hate crimes both here and home and around the world.”
