When the horrific shootings occurred last month in Las Vegas where 600 people were shot, the President and his supporters on the hill did not want to rush to talk about gun control law. They did not call it an act of domestic terror and he did not call the shooter an animal. In fact, the maker of the bump stock appliance that made the shooters act easier in Vegas has started selling them again. The President had no such hesitancy today today following the tragic events in New York where eight people were run over by a terrorist trucker. He spread false information and sentiments about the immigration law in question and our legal system. The way the President portrays it, you would think terrorists can ran amok in our country free of any legal consequences. Well, here is a news flash. The terrorist is in custody. He is going to get tried and in all likelihood either get life without parole or the death penalty like the terrorist who helped organize the Boston Marathon Bombing and all the other domestic and international terrorists that were not either killed in the act or languishing in Guantanamo Bay. The President needs to reassure and comfort the American People and Spirit, not act like a rabid alt right maniac. He needs to be Presidential.
