Trump J.  Basically a chip off the old block...a family of bullies...Calls out the first lady...
=====================================
""Hey @flotus, you say that your mission as first lady is to stop cyber bullying," Lauren Hogg tweeted, "well then, don't you think it would have been smart to have a convo with your stepson, @donaldjtrumpjr, before he liked a post about a false conspiracy theory, which in turn put a target on my back and created a safe space for people all over the world to call me and my family horrific things that constantly re-victimizes us and our community?"

14yearold Parkland survivor calls out Melania Trump for sitting by as Donald Trump Jr. Cyberbullied her.

Hmmm. Let's assess.

Junior allegedly liked a tweet.
Which may or may not be true.
We have no verification.

The tweet he allegedly liked was allegedly a "false" conspiracy theory.
Which may or may not be true.
We have no verification of the contents of said tweet.

Liking this tweet "in turn" put a target on Lauren Hogg's back and created a safe space for people all over the world to call her and her family horrific things that constantly re-victimizes her and her community.

Meanwhile, Melania "sat by"
Which may or may not be true.
We have no knowledge of what Melania said to Junior, before or after this alleged like occurred.

We should nominate the author of that article for a Pulitzer.
And let Lauren know one of her fifteen minutes of fame has elapsed.

The conspiracy theory posits that David Hogg, Lauren Hogg's brother, is a so-called "crisis actor" paid to portray a victim in a false flag attack staged as a pretext for introducing nationwide gun control laws. I believe the theory rests on Hogg's boilerplate rhetoric and his appearing in some news story in CA.

Real compelling stuff.

Not to be out-nuttered, however, CNN is alleged to have scripted their "Town Hall interview" with survivors (this is according to another young man who survived the massacre, Colton Haab).

The battle for American hearts and minds rages on.

I feel bad for the girl, but Melania can't control her husband. Why does this girl think Donald Jr. even talks to her about anything such as liking tweets before he does so? He's a grown man and not her child. I feel for the girl, but the correct target is Donald Jr.

And Donald Jr. has a history of stuff like this.

Not sure how many of the seventeen killed were her friends. Nor how many and which of the seventeen killed could be characterized as "blown apart". But dead is. Losses are.

And none of that was cited in the article, so we won't credit our Pulitzer nominee for reporting on any of that.

You shouldn't start a sentence with "But".
"But dead is." is not a complete sentence.
"Losses are." is not a complete sentence, either.

Just came across another post regarding the young lady...

"I’ve been getting all these horrible messages from Nazis and white supremacists and I woke up this morning and remembered that Melania Trump’s mission was to fight cyberbullying,” Hogg told Huffpost on Friday. “That’s what’s happening to me: cyberbullying. I thought she could do something about Donald Trump Jr.”"

The young lady is fourteen f years old...AGAIN ,  that's FOURTEEN YEARS OLD.. and was in the school...when the slaughter was happening..She lost four friends...[her words] and is now getting these messages....She is blaming Trump Jr. , a supposed senior in responsibility in government rankings ..for the messages she is getting...again, a FOURTEEN  year old who just went through a great trauma...and your giving her a hard time?

If I  didn't know better I could be  wondering if u might be one of those who is sending the messages to her...seems your very upset with her and her calling out to the first lady for help....just saying.

[thyme4change]

Has Melania done anything besides once mentioning the cyberbullying thing?

They said that Ivanka would be fulfilling the duties of first lady, but she hasn't taken up a cause and done anything either.

Granted, I've always thought the first lady causes and results from their work was kinda useless, but I now wonder if the tradition is over, or just hibernating until we get back to a traditional president.

[weltschmerz]

Melania was just blowing smoke up everyone's butts.

She never had any intention of making cyberbullying her cause celebre.

She's married to the biggest cyberbully of them all.

CNN was approached by a couple of news agencies who were doing their fact-checking on the story of the scripted questions before they reported it.  Young Mr. Haab had gone on the Tucker Carlson show on FOX and made the charge that CNN was forcing him to use a question they had written for him.  At some point, an edited copy of the e-mail exchange between CNN and Haab had been released which left that impression.  That edited copy was presented to CNN for comment.  CNN at that point released the unedited version of the e-mails.

CNN had been negotiating Haab's appearance.  He had offered three questions that he would like to ask and the potential for a short statement.  At that point, Haab's father (apparently a big Trump supporter) sent multiple pages of "background" or "talking points" that he wanted his son to recite.  CNN naturally responded that the format of the program did not allow that.  It was meant to have a lot of short questions to be able to get to as many people as possible during the limited time allowed.  CNN told them that the multiple pages Haab's father wanted read were too long and that Colton would have to stick with one of the earlier questions he himself had offered. 

Again, Colton Haab had been discussing what the question would be.  He offered three.  CNN told his father that Colton would have to use one of the three that Colton himself had offered and not the multiple pages that Colton's father wanted read.  I don't know at this point who originally released the misleading edited version of the e-mail, but one would guess it was either the Haab family or FOX.  The format of the program did not allow several minutes of talking points to be read by one person.  CNN apparently did, as I read somewhere, offer Colton an opportunity to appear elsewhere for a longer discussion, but he or his father apparently declined.

Agree with u and it seems CNN  was within it's rights to have some control of their own time spot...there is just so much time available and to fill the time properly u need professional programmers making production decisions...and CNN sure has plenty of those...

Seems the father, possible the son, didn't want to know about time restraints...possible they thought they had the one message America needed to hear...If so, buy your own time spot or write a book...

"Colton Haab, a junior at Marjory Stoneman Douglas High School in Parkland, Fla. where 17 people were killed by a single shooter last week, wanted to pose a question about placing more armed guards in schools.


“CNN had originally asked me to write a speech and questions, and it ended up being all scripted,” Haab told local ABC affiliate WPLG. “I don’t think that it’s going to get anything accomplished. It’s not gonna ask the true questions that all the parents and teachers and students have.”



CNN, in a statement, said that is not true: “CNN did not provide or script questions for anyone in last night’s town hall, nor have we ever. After seeing an interview with Colton Haab, we invited him to participate in our town hall along with other students and administrators from Marjory Stoneman Douglas High School. Colton’s father withdrew his name from participation before the forum began, which we regretted but respected.”

So bye?  Then you proceed to quote two more of my post and add your own spin on what I said rather than actually read the words?

Truly a giggle moment, for me.

Apparently the fact that I'm not jumping on that story like a fat kid on a cookie doesn't sit well with you.  Get over it.  I'm not built that way.

your prime objective in posting

... should be quite evident for anyone who's less inclined to jump to conclusions and more inclined to read what I wrote.   

In any situation for which I only see one side presented, I'll always be skeptical of which parts are actually facts and how much has been colored by the person's perspective.

Obviously.  Since you avoided the temptation to editorialize on what you think my motivations are, you made that quite clear.

[ken a.k.a OMK]

retread are you a past poster returning incognito? Beginning to sound familiar. 

[retread]

No ken a.k.a OMK , I'm not.  But if you wouldn't mind telling me who I remind you of, I'd like to look at a few of said person's posts.

If you don't want to say in public, PM would be fine.


Thanks,
Ted
