Republicans: Kneeling for the National Anthem is offensive. 
Trump: What if I throw paper towels at hurricane survivors?

Apparently Samantha Bee doesn't realize that the folks upset at the NFL and other sports players kneeling for the Anthem aren't just Republicans, but of course this doesn't register on her radar.

We are truly blessed to have Trump as the Moron In Chief. No one has brought more grace and dignity to the white house than this man.

 

He throws the best paper towels to people with nothing, believe me! What a privilege it must have been to catch them.

I thought he had already ruined it with his bit about their "death count", how PR "ruined out budget" and how it was much better than a "real disaster" like Katrina.

 

But then he tossed paper towels like they were mardi gras beads and told a victim to have a good time...

 

EDIT:

 

I have to believe that even people who support his political opinions, want a wall built, want to reform healthcare etc... all can at least admit that it would be nice if our President acted a bit more maturely when visiting hurricane victims.

Is it a compliment or an insult to have paper towels thrown at your by your President? I can't decide.

Maybe if he autographs it for you later 

 

Have to admit it is kinda strange looking, the least he could have done is throw the bog roll first.

This is a major scandal. Impeach now. This is bigger than the Russian lie.

 It's not a scandal. More of an embarrassment. Our presidents greatest accomplishments shouldn't be his ability to troll on Twitter and to become meme fodder. Is acting like a baboon part of the plan to make America great again, or is it just that he can't control himself?

He is a huge embarrassment he is shameful, the guy doesn't show one ounce of empathy unless the script was written by someone else on the teleprompter as we saw today in Nevada. Every word was a lie because we know the real Trump is the one we saw in Puerto Rico, a clown, a jerk, a buffoon, it's always about him.

He was throwing paper towels at people who likely had no drinkable water, power and limited food.

 

He also had the audacity to say that he hopes they had a "good time" as if it was some sort of party.

 

I really am not sure that is a compliment. He clearly sees Puerto Rico as second class. He compares them to a "real disaster", implying their problems aren't real. He "jokingly" mentions their negative impact in the budget.

 

He literally did everything a President isn't supposed to do when visiting victims of a natural disaster. It's like he read a rule book and said "naw man imma do the opposite". 

 

Honestlyit doesn't even need a rule back. It's all common sense stuff. You don't even need to be truly sincere. He could have just gone there, smiled, said some meaningless (but not offensive) words, handed out supplies like a NORMAL HUMAN (instead of treating it like some talk show reward session) and then left.

 

He doesn't get "brownie points" or a "participation trophie" for just showing up but acting like an idiot.
