Trump throws Tulsa officer under the bus

Trump throws Tulsa officer under the bus. Speaking to a black church in Cleveland, this is what he had to say about the shooting of Terence Crutcher:

“That man was hands up. That man went to the car, hands up. To me, it looked like he did everything you’re supposed to do. He looked like a really good man. This young officer, I don’t know what she was thinking. I am very, very troubled by that. And we have to be very careful… Did she get scared? Was she choking? People that do that can’t be doing what they are doing.”

  • You all are so predictable. He gave an opinion. Looks like he may have been right as well.....She is being charged with 1st degree manslaughterhttp://www.newson6.com/story/33160895/press-conference-held-at-tulsa-county-courthouse

    Sometimes bad things happen to bad people.

    • You mewling pile of crap, you will pile on that poor cop for no other reason than it makes your hero look like less of a moron. So if Trump being "right" is what makes throwing her under the bus okay in your mind, will you ask him to withdraw from the presidential race or resign from the presidency or issue an abject apology when she's found not guilty? (Which, given recent history on these things, she will be.) Will you follow through on your own logic and say Trump isn't fit for office when she's ultimately exonerated?

      For the first time, I have an opinion below zero of you. You're scum. That officer did nothing you wouldn't do in the same situation. Breaking news, a-hole: that officer has a life, a career, and a family, all ruined by politically-motivated charges. All that moron who left his car running in the middle of the road had to do was listen and do what the cops told him. And all Trump had to do was keep his mouth shut until he knew the facts.

      • LOL!
        You're still arguing with the mentally handicapped?
        I guess it's good practice for debating Democrats.

  • So Officer Shelby has shared her side of the story, which--surprise surprise--is entirely different than the story we're hearing from the media and the race baiters:

    This guy was either trying to commit suicide by cop or he was high as a kite. The car was in the middle of the road, running. There was no break down of the vehicle. He raised his hands before she even asked him to, before she had her gun out, before she even considered him a threat or a suspect. Then once she had her gun drawn, he started walking away and ignoring her commands, while continually reaching into his pocket as if to say, "C'mon, shoot me!"

    No doubt we will hear from Trump today or tomorrow insisting that he didn't say what he said.
