Could be.
Nobody really believes trump heard white power and posted it, do they? I don't. It was just another ill conceived tweet he shat out on twitter, then it was removed once he realized what he had done.
I've said for years he should have people on his team vetting tweets first and this is why, but it's a done deal.

You'd think cnn and nbc would be front paging this, but they aren't. So far I only see it on nbc's page and it's tucked away.

I have to laugh a little bit. One of things I do at work is monitor and post on our organization's social media platforms. Today I posted something that my boss didn't like. It wasn't controversial or a big deal but it didn't quite meet what she believes are our organization's standards (I disagree but it's the boss so I do what I'm told). Within 5 minutes of her emailing me I had it taken down. And we're a rinky dink NPO.
This is the President of the United States. I can't for the life of me believe that there isn't an army of people monitoring his tweets. I realize that Trump's off the cuff no holds barred style is what gives him his appeal, but come on. Certain things you need to vet not to mention never give your enemy ammunition against you.

I only saw a brief bit of the video on one of the newscasts, but it looked like some old guy making a joke during their geezer golfcart parade. I'm sure there was outrage on Twatter, but no one else gives a crap.

The world is very polarized, and it's only getting worse.
There isn’t much room left for anyone to be "not with us, but not against us".
Which really sucks, because there are a (very) few things I would side with the Democrats on over the Republicans, but they have made it impossible.

Well, some guy on his campaign staff in charge of monitoring Twitter couldn't reach him for hours.
I'm sure the Joint chiefs could have had him on the phone in seconds.
I love Trump. I cannot wait to reelect him.
I really wish his handlers would handle him a bit better. In saying this, I see nothing wrong with him retweeting the parade.

Trump can’t afford bad media right now, he really needs to lay low with the election approaching. He should watch what he posts.

The vast majority of the media is dedicated 24/7 to bad mouthing him.
If he kept his mouth shut they would just make shit up.
Retreat is not the correct course of action.
He has been successful where the rest of the Republicans have failed specifically by going on the offense when they would have hunkered down in defense.
I hope he does as well. He is the only one running that does not cower in fear of saying/posting what he wants.
Funny that one 1/2 second blurb from one person is what makes the news. Not that fat old woman saying fuck all Trump supporters and the death threats she made. Nothing about how peace filled the white parade was. See, I can pull race into everything as well.
Again, one 1/2sec blurb. Trump has been one of the best President's for all Americans in a very long time.
Nothing about wealth increases or lower unemployment rates within all minority groups. Nothing positive about the crime bills. Nothing positive about the black people he has freed during his short time in office. No comparison between him and ol Barack Hussain. A man that in office for eight years and did next to nothing for the minority communities.
Half second blurb is what he is hated for.
Loose the hate....
Lose what hate?

I’m pro trump but don’t see how anyone can support a president of the United States posting a video that glorifies “white power”. That is just dumb and in really bad taste given what’s currently going on.

You seriously think he saw that and thought it was a good idea? or did he over look it while focusing on the protestors ? He wasnt paying attention, he heard what he wanted to hear and missed the details.
Hahahahaha, this is so bad that man said "White Power" just think if he said black power! They would burn, loot, and destroy the place.
What if President Trump had 83 people including children murdered on national tv, boy he would be in trouble then!
What if you were running guns and some ended up killing U.S. citizens!
What if you sold out your country to the communists repeatedly?
But, re tweet some bs (did he or an aide?), even if it was him who fing cares, we have much bigger problems to deal with.

So you think he did that on purpose, ? Before an election? During civil unrest? Because he thought it was a good idea? Your going to have to sell me on that . I can see no advantages and all disadvantages .
