Donald Trump retweets far-right group's videos

[bots]

Donald Trump has retweeted three inflammatory videos from a British far-right group.

The first tweet from Jayda Fransen, the deputy leader of Britain First, claims to show a Muslim migrant attacking a man on crutches.

This was followed by two more videos of people Ms Fransen claims to be Muslim.

Britain First was founded in 2011 by former members of the far-right British National Party (BNP).

The group has grabbed attention on social media with controversial posts about what they deem "the Islamification of the UK".

Wanting to stop actual islamization is a good thing, as long as it doesn't involve harming the everyday muslim, but retweeting stuff by Britain First is just dumb.

Piers Morgan was just Live on Ian Dale.

Saying he has tweeted back to Trump.
He has no idea what he retweeted
but tomorrow he is not on GMBHD itv only Mon to Weds.

I guess it depends on the content rather than the retwetee as I'm sure Jayda tweets the odd kitten video

Trump's retweets were leading several major British news websites Wednesday morning, and officials condemned him on Twitter. A spokesperson for UK Prime Minister Theresa May said Trump was "wrong" to share the videos, adding that "Britain First seeks to divide communities through their use of hateful narratives which peddle lies and stoke tensions."
"British people overwhelmingly reject the prejudiced rhetoric of the far-right, which is the antithesis of the values that this country represents -- decency, tolerance and respect," the spokesperson added.

Brendan Cox, the husband of Jo Cox, the British MP who was murdered last year by a man who reportedly shouted "Britain First" as he attacked her, tweeted, "Trump has legitimized the far right in his own country, now he's trying to do it in ours. Spreading hatred has consequences & the President should be ashamed of himself."

Ch4HD just had a recorded interview with the Female leader
of this Evil Group.
The Good Irish Reporter spoke to her

She was Cocky
but she under a Police investigation.


Also this Group says it had nothing to do with the Murder
of Jo Cox.

Meaning the Evil Killer just shouted out what he felt etc.

Also from USA Ann Coulter tweeted them
before Trump.
She is not aware of the UK trouble.
She says its a general trouble in the UK.
And went on about the Asian Rape Gangs - which is sadly true

[jaxie]

Someone in the US government really needs to take his Twitter account away. He's making them look silly.

Trump has now told our Theresa to basically mind her own business .... Maybe he should practice what he preaches and not support british far right groups?

British lawmaker Chuka Umunna called for President Trump's invite to visit the United Kingdom in 2018 to be withdrawn.
His call comes after Trump on Wednesday morning retweeted a series of videos that purported to show violent acts by Muslims, first sent out by the leader of an ultranationalist party in Great Britain.
"I don't think the president of the United States, a president that has not only promoted bigotry, misogyny and racism in his own country, I don't think he is welcome here," he said during an interview on Sky News.
"I think the invite that has been made to him to come to our country in early 2018 should be withdrawn." He accused Trump of normalizing hatred.

Britain First is a blast from the long distant pre-Blair past. Amongst the most annoying of Trotskyist dogmatists, which is saying something.

It's not really worth falling out with the USA because Trump retweeted videos showing islamic violence.

Agree, ignoring the actions of people that behave that way out of some misguided attempt to not be seen as tarring all with the same brush is not productive or forward thinking. It is simply avoidance of a growing problem in the West - which needs to be dealt with not ignored.

EVERYONE should be held accountable for their actions regardless of their ethnicity or beliefs. The West is in danger of doing a complete u-turn and discriminating against Westerners.

“Theresa@theresamay, don’t focus on me, focus on the destructive Radical Islamic Terrorism that is taking place within the United Kingdom,” the US president tweeted on Wednesday evening. “We are doing just fine!”

[Tom4784]

The sooner he gets impeached the better.

The videos were either fake or misleading. Everyone knows that Britain First videos never show the whole story, they'll bait a reaction out of anyone with brown skin and then record the reaction without showing the provocation. One of the videos he shared wasn't of Muslim violence but of violence from people opposed to Morsi in Egypt when he was president.

I can't think of the exact quote but the White House secretary said something among the lines of 'It doesn't matter if the videos aren't real because the threat is out there.' Which is an insane line of thinking especially from the goddamn White House.

Trump is a lunatic and we can only hope the investigation into his corruption proceeds quickly.

The videos have been discredited and yet Trump posts them. Ironic really, that he moans about fake news.

His people really do need to delete his twitter account though. I genuinely can see him actually starting a war with that thing one of these days D:

What hysteria over a re-tweet!


Was there this hysteria just this year, when a labour MP retweeted that the victims of the sex grooming gangs should shut their mouths for the sake of diversity?


Would it be ok for Trump to retweet a far-leftie that hates their own country? someone like Corbyn or his followers.

Would it be ok for Trump to invite a White supremacist group to the White house, because it seems that it was ok for Obama to invite a Black supremecist group.

:idc:

Completely unrelated and quite untrue unless you are trying to make out that the deaths of Tamir Rice, Eric Garner and all the other victims of police brutality are comparable to discredited and inflammatory videos meant to promote hate?

If you can't see the difference between a group like BLM and Britain First then that is something to be concerned about although, knowing you, you are fully aware of the difference and would likely post in support of BLM if I happened to be opposed to it.

Trump is a liability.This is a pretty big blunder as it’s putting our PM and government in a cringingly awkward position.The US are our closest allies and we have to have a good relationship with them and his mindless Tweeting is making that harder.I bet Theresa is hoping he’s impeached asap.
His Twitter account is causing his staff massive headaches.A yank on the DP was saying that nobody can get him off Twitter,Even his chief of staff.
I mean he is the POTUS not just some Tom,Dick or Harry Tweeting bollocks.
Everything he says has impact,Possibly globally.His Twitter account could be the most dangerous weapon in the world.

If you are going to downplay the fact that a foreign power held influence over the US election just because Russia favoured the candidate you wanted to win then there's nothing more to say,

You can't have a reasonable discussion with someone that's wilfully ignorant.

Very good points. That labour MP was disgusting, prepared to sacrifice those young victims for the sake of diversity. If that is what is needed than she can keep her diversity.

I actually find this more worrying than the tweets. It's fine for him to spread misinformation to his followers if it supports his agenda and people should just accept that :umm2:. Sort of sums up his campaign.

Ann Coulter also piped in to defend his tweet about May and said something like 'he's just giving as good as he gets'.... it's easy to forget he's a world leader and not a child when you read things like that.

After his latest spasm of deranged tweets, only those completely under his spell can deny what growing numbers of Americans have long suspected: The President of the United States is profoundly unstable. He is mad. He is, by any honest layman’s definition, mentally unwell and viciously lashing out.
Some might say we are just suffering through the umpteenth canny, calculated presidential eruption designed to distract the nation from special counsel Robert Mueller’s investigation, or perhaps from unpopular legislation working its way through Congress.
Quite possible. But Occam’s razor, and the sheer strangeness of Trump’s behavior, leads us to conclude that we are witnessing signs of mania.

Caligula comes to mind.
