President Trump has tweeted about how “loser terrorists must be dealt with in a much tougher manner” in light of the terror attack that just took place in London. Trump also used the opportunity to tout his proposed travel ban, possibly revealed information about Scotland Yard’s anti-terror operations, and he also talk about how his progress against radical Islamic extremism is way better than Barack Obama‘s past efforts.
Another attack in London by a loser terrorist.These are sick and demented people who were in the sights of Scotland Yard. Must be proactive!

Loser terrorists must be dealt with in a much tougher manner.The internet is their main recruitment tool which we must cut off & use better!

The travel ban into the United States should be far larger, tougher and more specific-but stupidly, that would not be politically correct!

We have made more progress in the last nine months against ISIS than the Obama Administration has made in 8 years.Must be proactive & nasty!

The incident took place in southwest London earlier today, where an improvised explosive device went off at Parsons Green Tube station. Even though the device caught fire and ignited, reports indicate that the bomb failed to actually detonate.
At least eighteen people were hospitalized by the rush hour attack, but early reports indicate that none of the injured are critically wounded. British police have occupied the area and multiple law enforcement agencies have launched an investigation into the situation.
