Trump loves to brag. He constantly uses the accomplishments of President Obama claiming that they are his. Okay; we’re used to his lies. This time he has gone too far. Trump claims that he would have confronted the shooter inside of Marjory Stoneham Douglas High School. We know he’s a coward. He received five deferments and failed to serve in the Vietnam War. Since his inauguration, Trump has tweeted his lies hundreds of times, but has lacked the courage to hold a press conference more than one time.

Trump is a bully, and all bullies are cowards. During his despicable rallies he encouraged violence. He enjoys watching physical confrontation, but his only recorded action was assaulting and raping his first wife.

Trump has vehemently criticized the school officer who apparently refused to confront the shooter in Parkland, Florida. He has ignored the statements by law enforcement officials across the nation. They were discussing the idiotic suggestion by Trump and the NRA that teachers be armed. These experienced men relayed the fact that training is one thing, and actually confronting a madman armed with an assault rifle, and wearing a Kevlar vest is another.

‘Daily Show’ host, Trevor Noah, had a lot of fun making fun of Donny Boy. He showed three clips. In the first clip Trump claimed that he would have ‘run into the school, even if he was unarmed.’ In another clip he was confronted by an American eagle in his office and cowered. Lastly, during one of his rallies a sound similar to a gunshot had Trump nearly bear hugging a secret service agent while he peed his pants. This is the real Donald Trump.

A final note. Ending mass killings is simple. If the NRA gun lobby did not exist we would not be discussing a ban on military assault rifles; they would never have been for sale in the first place. No civilian needs these killing machines.
