Obama's thoughts about what "his" son would look like clearly did that
But if you think we should discuss the entirety of the message let's look at what Trump said at the launching of Space X. He took attention away from a hom a huge event that he knew would be viewed nationally to draw attention to the matter:
I am curious, not that you'll answer, but I am curious how Obama's empathy and concern for Martin was "blaming the other guy"? Who was he blaming? Bush? White people?
Obama has children and knows how to love. He spoke from the heart and with emotion.
I realize most Trump supporters don't like that. They want a "tough guy" who can't remember his son'sname sometimes.
But I'm at a loss for how it painting the problem as all "the other guy".
Your anger and ego will always reveal your true self.
