This quote from Trump putting blame on Jews should he lose the election is incoherent. It’s hard to figure out what he’s trying to say. His speech is elliptical — start-stop, change of subject, change back, rambling, hardly presidential. Tweet This Post

A second attempt on the life of former President Trump at his gold course is proof that nowhere is safe in this poisonous political era. Free speech has turned to unacceptable violence — on the part of deranged individuals, yes — but encouraged by ugly words. We will survive this period but will we remember […]
