Trump offers UK 'full support' after London attacks
The Hill ^ | June 3, 2017 | Mallory Shelbourne

President Trump on Saturday offered the United Kingdom “full support” during a phone call with Prime Minister Theresa May following two attacks in London.

“The President offered his condolences for the brutal terror attacks on June 3 in central London,” the White House said late Saturday.

“He praised the heroic response of police and other first responders and offered the full support of the United States Government in investigating and bringing those responsible for these heinous acts to justice.”

Officials originally reported three separate incidents, including a van that ran down pedestrians on London Bridge and an incident at Borough Market. Police said the third incident, a stabbing in Vauxhall, was unrelated to the other two.

London police said the two attacks are “declared as terrorist incidents.”

The Associated Press reported multiple casualties following the incident on the London Bridge.

The important thing is that we help the Brits keep the Islamic name and refugee background of the terrorists secret. Oh, and also that they were well known to police and have been interviewed many times.

Its very important to keep all of that secret. I know because Teresa May said so after last weeks terrorist attack. /s

The “full support” of the US government would do Britain very little good. The problem is of their own making in every sense. It now comes from within. This is not like WW I or WW II where overt US support was critical for Britain’s survival. TodY Britain is akin to a debilitated patient with a lethal metastatic cancer throughout its body. The US “full support” is like an old friend offering to do “whatever he can” for an old, barely recognized friend. It also underscores the futility of modern NATO.

And didn’t the koranimals hit London bridge just a month or two ago? That’s getting kinda embarrassing.

President Trump is the Winston Churchhill of the war against radical Islamic terrorism.

The Left is going beyond appeasement. They have made it politically incorrect to say the terrorists are Muslims or to say that the terrorism is in the name or Islam.

Trump has been right on everything.

The press will piss and moan for a few days, then the English will forget it all again. Nothing, absolutely nothing, will be done. Until next time, when it will happen the same way all over again.

Rinse, wash, repeat.

Let’s get Marie Harf to get them jobs.

That’s the problem right there!

Oh wait, the islamic terrorist in California had a job and yet he still killed many.

Oh wait, the islamic terrorist in Texas (Hasan) had a job and yet he still killed many.

Gee, could Marie Harf be wrong? No way! Not possible!

If she was smart she’d say “Why don’t you help me figure out how to get these scumbags out of my country?”

Win re-election.

Full support?
Maybe he means reconsidering the Paris faux climate thing because that is clearly more dangerous threat.

IMPEACH! IMPEACH! IMPEACH! IMPEACH! IMPEACH!

Just saving everyone the need to read the headlines in the morning.

He supports Great Britain. How dare he!

The only thing I can’t figure at this point, is how they will link Trump to Russia on this, and then demand Impeachment over it.

Russians hacked those poor innocent muslim guys and made them do those things just so Trump could frighten American voters into backing his travel bans.

It’s just that obvious, isn’t it?

Trump can really support UK by deporting all mooslims (legal, illegal, born, unborn without any discrimination) from US to UK. So they will achieve perfect diversity sooner.
