Donald Trump On New York Bombing: ‘I Called It Before The News’

Republican presidential nominee Donald Trump patted himself on the back Monday morning for calling the weekend attack in Manhattan a “bombing” before officials did.

“What I said was exactly correct,” Trump boasted in an interview on “Fox and Friends.” “I should be a newscaster because I called it before the news.”

At a rally in Colorado Springs on Saturday, Trump had informed the crowd that a bomb had just gone off in New York City, even though police had not yet said exactly what happened. The explosion in the Chelsea neighborhood injured 29 people, and a second explosive device was found nearby.

“Just before I got off the plane, a bomb went off in New York, and nobody knows exactly what’s going on, but, boy, we are really in a time. We better get very tough, folks,” Trump told rallygoers.

Trump once again continues his habit of giving himself a high five during a tragedy.

1. It sounds like he knew in advance

He should be subject to extraordinary rendition.

5. Gee Wizzz !

I wonder if Trump can get ahead of Thursday's news !!!!

[DetlefK]

6. Yes... He also called "The Central Park Five" before the news...

And he called "Obama's birth-certificate" before the news...

And he called the Iraq-war before the news...

7. No, Time Magazine called it two weeks ago

... in the article Why ISIS Supports Donald Trump:

Trump’s anti-Muslim proposals are likely to inspire and radicalize more violent jihadists in the U.S. and Europe. Specifically, his calls for a ban on Muslims visiting our country and for blanket spying on mosques reinforce ISIS’s view that the U.S. is hostile to all Muslims. As a former ISIS fighter told Revkin and Mhidi: “When Trump says hateful things about Muslims, it proves that jihadists are right to fight against the West, because the West is against Islam.” As a result, his ideas fuel the group’s efforts to radicalize and mobilize its followers to take action. In fact, Trump himself has been featured in ISIS propaganda videos following the Brussels attack and the Orlando massacre.

These attacks prove that Trump is already making us less safe, just by running.

8. Game show host Trump.

9. No, Donald, calling something before you have information or evidence is not news reporting.

It's called guessing.

10. Muriel V on Trump's desire for torture: I called it before his speech

I expect Trump surrogates, or the turd himself, to advocate waterboarding and other torture

They need a way to get their more bloodthirsty supporters up in arms, and themselves hard.

We must use whatever lawful methods are available to obtain information from the apprehended suspect to get information before it’s no longer timely. And Congress should pass measures to ensure that foreign enemy combatants are treated as such. These are enemies.

11. That man is going to break his arm one of these days

The motion of patting himself on the back all the time is going to come back to haunt him.

[SammyWinstonJack]

12. How did he know before the police did....inside info....

Open mouth, insert foot....

[lsewpershad]

13. If he called before the news

where did he get his info? Maybe from an insider? if he got it from an insider what did he know and when. There should be an investigation.

[spiderpig]

14. I'm waiting for this creep to be publicly exposed for the lying cretin he is

A Face in the Crowd style.

So true...so true...

Believe me...believe me...
