Your own journalists colleagues have been attacked. These are the exactly same speeches Milošević held before using Ex-YU Army to attack civilians of other Republics. Exactly.The.Same. This is not harder than 2+2 . He was on the phone with Kremlin lady night.

Wow, Trump the totalitarian needs to become Trump the international pariah. Absolutely astonishing rhetoric from the leader of the world's biggest 'democracy'

The last 3.5 years of him in office has been a disgrace.

End racism, End the entire problem. As simple as that

means war on people, maybe Civil War

Maybe mention he has called the military on US citizens for the first time since 1807. This is just the start of the people rising up against fascists and we in the UK will soon do so against others like BorisJohnson and you his mouthpiece

Donald holding up mein kamp outside a church Like watching a comedy on Netflix

He is a disgrace!

Please go back in your bunker and stay there P.S. ask your mate BorisJohnson to join you.

ANTIFA needs to be completely dismantled and destroyed just like ISIS.

BBC...will you also be reporting that Trump sent in militarised police to attack peaceful protest so he could walk to a church to make this awful speech?

Rioters asking themselves... Can I fcuk it, steal it or fcuk it up?
