NBC News contributor raises suspicions over Trump's order to fly US flags half-staff until Aug. 8

NBC News contributor Frank Figliuzzi said Tuesday that President Trump’s decision to fly American flags half-staff until Aug. 8-- in response to the El Paso and Dayton mass shootings-- could be seen by white supremacists as a nod to Adolf Hitler.

Figliuzzi, a former FBI assistant director for counterintelligence, made the claim during an MSNBC broadcast with Brian Williams. Trump issued the order on Sunday “as a mark of solemn respect” for the victims of the shootings.

“The president’s either getting really good advice and rejecting it, or he’s getting really bad advice," he said. "We have to understand the adversary and the threat we’re dealing with, and if we don’t understand how they think we’ll never understand how to counter them, so it’s the little things and the language and messaging that matters.

Serious craziness.

When the media gets this bad, I don’t know what can be done. This is scary bad.

NBC News would be laughed out of most American newsrooms a few years ago.

Hey Frank!

YOU are the one keeping track of Hitler's calendar, not Trump!

Let’s face it the Left has no intention of ever reconciling with the right. They plan to destroy the US and all things that might have any connection to or be considered white.

Whites are specifically under attack.

Trump needs to treat them as outright enemies. He should always regard the press (if he didn't already) as the press of a hostile power and treat them as such.

Irresponsible, provocative, and borderline criminal.

That was my thought, too.
If the Left believe the garbage coming out of their own mouths, they have gone into scary territory.

talked to a retired agent yesterday and he told me that his network of former agents is on fire about this guy - saying he is a nut case of the worst sort.

Trump flies flag at half-staff and is blamed.
Trump doesn’t fly flag at half staff and is blamed.

Got it.

Just imagine how much the FBI uses this kind of paranoid suspicion to justify opening a file on you and possibly SWATting you.

The Ruby Ridge mentality is expanding.

dooDoodooDoodooDoodooDoo...(hat tip Rod Serling).

It takes an MSLSD whacko like this Frank Figface to come up with this crap. NBC seems intent on destroying what remains of their news brand. Gotta' search the video to see how the panel reacted.
