Trump uses Barcelona terror attack to bash Democrats – New York Post

President Trump tried to change the subject Friday morning using the terror attacks in Barcelona to talk tough about radical Islam and score political points by accusing Democrats of being soft on national security.

Homeland Security and law enforcement are on alert & closely watching for any sign of trouble. Our borders are far tougher than ever before! he wrote in one of a series of tweets at the end of the week in which his defense of white nationalists and the ensuing torrent of criticism dominated the headlines.

The Obstructionist Democrats make Security for our country very difficult. They use the courts and associated delay at all times. Must stop! he added seconds later, though it was unclear what specifically he was referring to.

Radical Islamic Terrorism must be stopped by whatever means necessary! The courts must give us back our protective rights. Have to be tough! he wrote in the third of four tweets on terrorism and national security.

He then said he was heading toward the presidential retreat to continue his working vacation, but would be meeting with unnamed aides.

Heading to Camp David for major meeting on National Security, the Border and the Military (which we are rapidly building to strongest ever), the president wrote.

His comments came a day after a terror attack in Barcelona that killed 13 people, including at least one American.

And they also came a day after he cited a bogus story about Gen. John Pershing ordering the massacre of Muslim insurgents in the Philippines with bullets dipped in pigs blood in the early 20th century an event that historians say never happened.
