Bill O’Reilly Promotes Donald Trump As Chattanooga Shooting Expert

Birther Donald Trump was a Fox News go-to guy about the Chattanooga shooting for The O’Reilly Factor last night.

Donald Trump doesn’t have a national security credential in sight despite his hilariously lengthy, self-promoting biography. And, of course, nobody should ever forget his utterly bogus birtherism – or the fact that he has yet to reveal the results of his big investigation in Hawaii on the subject. But on Fox News, that’s no reason not to promote him as a ready-for-prime-time voice of wisdom on the Chattanooga shooting

“There’s no question that terrorism will be a major campaign issue in the upcoming presidential race,” host Bill O’Reilly said in his introduction. Then, mentioning that Trump is “leading the GOP pack” in a new Fox News poll, that seemed to be all the credentials he needed to play an expert on in the “no spin zone” on The O’Reilly Factor. Even though Trump’s lead probably means nothing in the long term.

Not surprisingly, Trump had no policy ideas beyond hot-air platitudes. He declared it “absolutely ridiculous” that the Marines shot and killed in Chattanooga were not armed. Trump complained that showed a “total lack of respect” for “our country, for our officials for our leaders.”

Not surprisingly, “no spin” O’Reilly did not challenge Trump as to whether sham attacks on our president's citizenship showed respect for our country or our leader.

Instead, O’Reilly asked, “Do you have any solution to ‘lone wolf’ stuff?”

No, he didn’t. Trump called for “better intelligence” and “stronger protection": without giving even a peep of a hint that he knows what the state of our current intelligence or protection is.

Oh, and sure enough, America-respecting Trump attacked President Obama for not using the phrase “Islamic terrorism” and “nobody can quite understand why.”

Now, O’Reilly was ready to probe. “Well, I’m sure you have a theory on it, Donald,” he said.

“I think I won’t say my theory right now,” Trump said. But “we have to start maybe being not so politically correct.”

“Can you restore respect for the police? Can a politician do that?” O’Reilly asked.

Yes, Trump thought so. “You have to restore law and order. …You have to bring back the word ‘intelligence’ …because a thing like this shouldn’t happen.”

In other words, Trump may be running on a national security platform of semantics.

Watch it below, from the July 16, The O’Reilly Factor.

Trump wants to be an expert on shootings, fine- Let’s see his credentials. SWAT, CTU, ambassador, ex-Marine, interpol…

I don’t care, let’s see some. Pony up, Trump.

Billy is good friends with the Trumpster and will offer him more airtime than the other presidential candidates.

We encourage our media partners to take note on the numerous appearances of Trumpster, and compare it to the other presidential candidates.

oh i thought you meant the first stone. the verse you mentioned applies too. i was not being a good christian earlier. i sounded as rude as that war hero hater trump. i give the other candidates credit for speaking out so fast. i know a lot of republican voters love the military. his campaign is finished. i’d like to see if fox news defends this. if heaven forbid they do, will the RNC condemn them? reagan is rolling over in his grave.

Ahh, Glen Beck, somebody’s hero. Promoter of Jade Helm 15 conspiracy theory and persecuted Christians. America must arm the Federal military, but gee, what if it would hasten Obama’s Apocalypse now. A prediction of….Glen Beck, somebody’s hero. In cooperation with Walmart, the martial law takeover is imminent. But wait!! Rick Perry will rise to the occasion, arm his militia and save America. Read the true story. http://www.thecommonsenseshow.com/2015/05/06/isis-jade-helm-guillotines-and-the-ultimate-fate-of-many-christians/

i am glad somebody else reads the blaze. glenn doesn’t always go with the republican grain. he was one of the only right wingers to criticize cliven bundy. in other news, if you want to see what the other side actually thinks about things, watch the family leadership summit on c-span.

Well, ifin we’re gonna hold a grudge forever, we better cut ties with the Brits to start. Double taxing our tea and housing troops in our homes. Gotta cut Spain loose, too. And Italy, Japan, Germany, Mexico, and basically every country the US has had a fight with.

This is in response to Michael toni about the Iranian memorials, not our country, not our statue. Sorry dude you can’t tell someone else what flag to fly or statues they can have if it ain’t your country.

Birther Boy is as much an expert on national security as the Whore of Babble-On Palin. And Fux Noise doesn’t have to pay him.

however, speaking of beirut, here is something the iranian government did in 2004. the Iranian government erected a monument in Tehran to commemorate the 1983 bombings and its “martyrs”. did the iranian government take that memorial down? if not they should. before you start talking about the confederate memorials and flag, i feel the same way about those things too.

we should unite with moderate muslims against the islamists. i also forgot the words of jesus. those who without sin, cast the first stone . i deeply apologize to the prisoners who don’t deserve to be in there. however, i am not apologizing to the criminals who do deserve to be there.

ok. i admit i went a little overboard. i am just very passionate about this kind of stuff and i don’t know when to shut my mouth. i hate white racist scumbags as much as i hate all racist scumbags. i was not a fan of mr bundy nor did i support fox supporting him. it also pissed me off reagan didn’t visit the victims families of the beirut bombing. no i don’t want soldiers armed at all times, just on the vulnerable bases. i consider white terrorists as evil as muslim terrorists. if fox dared to criticize him for visiting the families, i would be first in line to call out fox. i am very sorry.

Michael, when you can show me that Reagan visited every single one of the families of the 241 servicemen who died in the Beirut bombing in 1983, and respected the lives of those soldiers, I’ll tell you Pres. Obama was wrong in not visiting Chattanooga. If you can’t show me that, then in the words of Trump, SHADDUP!!!!

let me make trump’s argument clear. it’s time we stop pandering to these islamists and make them respect law and order. it’s time our president actually used the words “islamic terror”. it is an outrage that marines who fought for our country could be shot like sitting ducks in the place where they are supposed to be safe. it is idiotic for the feds to not allow weapons for our soldiers to carry at all times. answer this question. why couldn’t the commander in chief cancel his prison visit and instead visit chattanooga tennesse and respect the lives of our soldiers instead of crackheads,methheads, and thugs?

Trump seems to be running on the name-calling platform.
