    Thought: There was (rightly) a cloud of illegitimacy over Bush, dispelled (wrongly) by 9/11. Creates some interesting incentives for Trump

        Your predicate is flawed. Bush won every recount of Florida undervotes. Bush won the election, legitimately.

        That's not the point. The point is, what do you think he means by "incentives?"

        Trump's incentives to #MAGA have not changed. Strong cabinet, Congress & Supreme Court align. Krugman irrelevant.

        this tweet is offensive and you should be ashamed. Insinuating any president has an incentive in terror attacks is despicable.

        Let's consider this though. Putin used--maybe even orchestrated--terror attacks to get elected. Trump used... 1/2

        ... Orlando shooting to push his "ban all Muslims" idea. It's not an unreasonable thing to be watchful for.

        If a white supremacist shot up some place shortly before election, and HRC won, would you give false flag theories any time?

        Yes, if I had any reason to believe her response to the attack was to try to gain power. This is not a partisan concern.

        Fair enough, but taking advantage of a tragedy to advance an agenda is not the same thing as a "false flag".

        Okay, but you said "false flag," not OP. Taking advantage of a tragedy is the issue here. No one is insinuating false flag

        Not on the part of Trump, anyway.
