Trump Changes Tone From ‘Bomb Stuff’ To Calling Attempted Attacks ‘Despicable’

Just hours after President Donald Trump appeared to diminish the severity of the numerous explosives and suspicious packages that have been sent to Democrats and organizations this week — calling it “Bomb stuff” — Trump changed his tone.

During an event in the White House’s East Room, Trump thanked law enforcement and the FBI for quickly apprehending a suspect in the serial bomb threats, calling “political violence” “despicable.”

  1. Will Trump pardon Cesar so he can vote.

  2. No wonder his tone changed. He can portray himself as the Eisenhower who presided over this far-flung and wildly successful effort. “We’ve carried out a far-reaching federal, state” etc. you get the idea. Fat moron. And he’s “instructed” the agencies to “spare no resource or expense.” You SAT ON YOUR ASS AND WATCHED TV, Two Scoops. But yeah, do your unwitting parody of a B-movie president, we’re used to that by now.

  3. Shouldn’t that be deplorable?

  4. Little too close to home, that one.

  5. “Trump Changes Tone…” ONLY at the beginning and scripted part of his words.

    He then went on to talk about how much he gets attacked. Then he laughed when those in attendance shouted “Fake News”
