It’s the 17th anniversary of 9/11. It’s the day that we stop and remember those who lost their lives. It’s the day we remember those who willingly gave everything. It’s the day that reminds us that true evil exists. It’s a constant battle. But America? America is resilient. We can overcome anything. We have and will continue to do so. We will never forget.
I reject anyone who tries to use days like today to push another political agenda, like say, hating Trump.
Who would do such a thing on a day like today? Joe Scarborough. He did that. He wrote a piece about how President Trump is destroying the American dream more than terrorists who literally crushed the dreams of thousands of people by TAKING THEIR LIVES.
My Latest—> Trump is damaging the dream of America more than any terrorist attack ever could. https://t.co/DEnYurEFmW

Get a load of this nonsense. He wrote in part:
For those of us still believing that Islamic extremists hate America because of the freedoms we guarantee to all people, the gravest threat Trump poses to our national security is the damage done daily to America’s image. As the New York Times’s Roger Cohen wrote the month after Trump’s election, “America is an idea. Strip freedom, human rights, democracy and the rule of law from what the United States represents to the world and America itself is gutted.”
Osama bin Laden was killed by SEAL Team 6 before he accomplished that goal. Other tyrants who tried to do the same were consigned to the ash heap of history. The question for voters this fall is whether their country will move beyond this troubled chapter in history or whether they will continue supporting a politician who has done more damage to the dream of America than any foreign adversary ever could.
This is unbelievably ridiculous.
He’s getting hammered on Twitter, and rightly so.
So in short you’re equating a terrorist attack and Americans losing their lives to your hatred of our duly elected president. Really!!!

What's it like to know you spent years helping elevate someone that you now say is more dangerous than 9/11 terrorists, Joe? https://t.co/IMW7Xk674h

This is the stupidest think on the internet today. Pathetic.

Are you kidding me? I recently went to the 9/11 Memorial & saw photos of the 2977 lives lost & listened to some of the testimonies from the family members. Believe me that was heart wrenching. You on the other hand are a disgrace to write this today. You are part of the problem.

You are an absolute, complete idiot…

You sir, should get out of this Country… You dont deserve to live in the land of the free with these types of comments.

It's a good thing to keep an open mind, but not so much that your brains fall out. Reckless hyperbole like this, by the way, is one of the reasons Trump won in 2016. https://t.co/8dXvXfwimA

Why would you say that on 9/11. Look in the mirror and be ashamed
— Andrea Winters (@AndreaWinters) September 11, 2018
You’re a TOTAL JERK for saying that! GTH
— Andrea Winters (@AndreaWinters) September 11, 2018
How dare you? Did you lose anyone in the attacks ? To equate @realDonaldTrump to a terrorist is just sick. Please think before you tweet @FoxNews

Good grief, man. Just stop. You are making yourself look insane. You seem to be in a downward spiral of TDS. Seek help.

This is peak TDS. Wow. Just wow.

Disgusting and disturbing tweet Joe! The fact you can even compare the two is starting to make you look like you're not grasping reality at all. #TDS

You are a sick and dangerous person to be spreading such lies and hate. Do you ever consider that your words could spur some lunatic into action. Shut up and support our president who is doing great things for the people of this country!

Let there be no doubt in your mind anymore. Joe Scarborough is trash.
