Keith Olbermann Blasts Trump for Talking During 9/11 Moments of Silence
Commentator Keith Olbermann used his Monday Resistance web video to highlight how abysmal President Donald Trump’s response to 9/11 memorials was throughout the day.
Olbermann acknowledged that remembrances of the terror attacks are often too militarized or used for politically advantage. But Trump’s bizarre indifference was stunning.
The GQ special correspondent explained how Trump managed to completely blow past the morning without a single tweet about 9/11, despite his propensity for tweeting incessantly.
Later in the day, Trump did tweet twice, but both were self-aggrandizing posts that looked like personal publicity ads.
Olbermann also highlighted Trump’s most disrespectful action: speaking during the moments of silence. “[Trump] kept speaking at the Pentagon as 9:58 and 10:03 moments of silence had begun,” he said.
Trump’s awful history around 9/11 is well-documented.
