GOP presumptive nominee Donald Trump said Sunday that he doesn’t want guns to be in classrooms, but that “some teachers” should have guns.
Trump was asked to respond on Fox & Friends to criticism from Democratic presidential frontrunner Hillary Clinton, who said his idea to put guns in classrooms would endanger students.
Trump at first said they were “just words.”
“I don’t want to have guns in classrooms, although in some cases teachers should have guns in classrooms frankly,” Trump said. “Because teachers are — you know — things that are going on in our schools are unbelievable.”
He went on to say that he wasn’t “advocating” guns in classrooms, but said “trained teachers” should be able to have them in classrooms.
Trump spoke at the National Rifle Association last week, calling Democratic presidential frontrunner Hillary Clinton the “most anti-gun candidate” ever. The organization also formally endorsed him at the event.
A spokesperson for Trump’s campaign didn’t immediately return TPM’s request for comment to clarify his statement.
‘Yeah, ‘frankly’ I’m a two faced putz who gets something out there EVERYONE can claim’…lord.
well ok then…
Manafort: “Stay on topic Donnie, stay on topic.”
Manafort (borderline yelling): “Stay on topic Donnie, stay on topic.”
poor Hope Hicks…
Remember when John Kerry was deemed unfit for office because he came to oppose GWB’s botched war for fun and profit? Trump can even get through a single sentence without contradicting himself.
This song explains a lot about Trump.
Walking Contradiction
By Green Day
“Do as I say not as I do because
The shit’s so deep you can’t run away
I beg to differ on the contrary
I agree with every word that you say
Talk is cheap and lies are expensive
My wallet’s fat and so is my head
Hit and run and then I’ll hit you again
I’m a smart ass but I’m playing dumb
Standards set and broken all the time
Control the chaos behind a gun
Call it as I see it even if
I was born deaf, blind and dumb
Losers winning big on the lottery
Rehab rejects still sniffing glue
Constant refutation with myself
I’m a victim of a catch twenty two
I have no belief
But I believe
I’m a walking contradiction
And I ain’t got no right
Do as I say not as I do because
The shit’s so deep you can’t run away
I beg to differ on the contrary
I agree.”
