In an interview on 'Fox & Friends' Monday morning, GOP presidential candidate Donald Trump responded to statements from the president of the Cleveland Police Patrolmen's Association Steve Loomis that the president has "blood on his hands" in the wake of police assassinations in Dallas and Baton Rouge this month.
"Well it is true," Trump said about Loomis's comments. "I watched the president, and sometimes the words are okay, but you just look at the body language."
"There is something going on. Just bad feelings. There’s just a bad feeling about him.”
"It would be wonderful if people could turn him in," Trump also said about the man who killed three police officers Sunday in Baton Rouge, LA. "I looked at some his videos, they were vicious and hateful."
"And people knew [he was up to something], they have an idea in some cases," he continued, echoing statements he made in the wake of the terror attack on a gay nightclub in Orlando. "If we had real experts that, when they turn them in they could nab him at some point, they could see before it would explode. But it is not an easy situation."
"What do you think about the president's tone yesterday?" asked host Brian Kilmeade about the president's statement about the Baton Rouge attacks.
"I think we need strength. We also need someone who can be a cheerleader," Trump said about the president. "I think he has been a great divider in this country. Relations now are as bad as they have ever been."
"We have somebody who really was in a position to do the opposite, but there is a tremendous divide in this country."
******* "Maybe God is trying to tell us something important- that now is not the time for a “nice Christian guy” or a “gentleman” or a typical Republican powder puff. Maybe now is the time for a natural born killer, a ruthless fighter, a warrior. Because right about now we need a miracle, or America is finished. Maybe the rules of gentleman don’t apply here. Maybe a gentleman and “all-around nice Christian” would lead us to slaughter." Wayne Allyn Root
