I need some help here.

[PoindexterOglethorpe]

Let's say I have the serious and sad misfortune to be in a mass shooting. And say the current resident at 1600 Pennsylvania Ave wants to visit me.

Do I tell his handlers "fuck, no!" or do I let him show up and then give him an earful?

I'm open to suggestions.

[madaboutharry]

1. I always have thought that Shunning makes a bigger statement.

That's my opinion.

[jmowreader]

2. If it was me, I would have to tell him "fuck, no!" and explain exactly why

If I was face-to-face with him, the urge to punch him in his disgusting mouth would be too overwhelming, and I don't think flattening Trump is allowed.

[PoindexterOglethorpe]

4. Yeah, and I'm short, all of 5'1.5", and even though

I weigh somewhat more than I'd like to, I probably couldn't get in any effective punch or scratch before being pulled away.

[fierywoman]

6. He always hits below the belt, why shouldn't you?

[PoindexterOglethorpe]

12. Duh!

Can't understand why I didn't think of that.

Thank you.

[SallyHemmings]

3. He nor his handlers care what anyone says unless they are racist @$$holes

So put me in the fuck, no camp

[PoindexterOglethorpe]

5. So far I'm liking the consensus.

But I'm still very open to alternative suggestions or opinions.

[Skittles]

7. he's not going to do anything about guns

so I would let him know he is NOT WELCOME

[jmowreader]

17. Yes, he will do something about guns

"Making it easier to get them, because everyone knows the only thing that stops a bad guy with a gun is a good guy with a gun" is probably not what you'd LIKE him to do about them, but that's what he'll do.

[ooky]

8. I'd tell the coward to take his photo op somewhere else.

[Demovictory9]

9. you won't be allowed to give him an earful. They'll drag you off.

[tymorial]

16. Trump will never allow himself to be placed in direct contract with an unsympathetic individual

There is literally no scenario possible the American average citizen would have any opportunity to challenge or question the president.

His fragile ego would not allow it. Despite all of Trumps bluster and rhetoric the man is terribly insecure.

[vlyons]

10. It depends on if you have skillful means

In Buddhism, skillful means is the ability to say just the right words to get through to a numbskull and help him/her have a realization about the importance of compassion, the truth of suffering and the path that leads to the cessation of suffering. Otherwise, without skill means, you might speak angry words that would make Trump dig his heels in further

[TreasonousBastard]

11. Shunning should make a larger statement, but the sad truth is that you are not important enough...

for the tangerine turdlapper to notice.

The full might of the White House propaganda ministry will do what they can to make your stand invisible, or at least ridiculous.

Much better he stand next to you yapping away and with all the cameras rolling you simply sneer "Do you ever shut the fuck up?"

[PoindexterOglethorpe]

13. That is so true.

The sad truth is that I am not at all important, not at least to him.

I will say that my original impulse would be to say he would not be welcome to visit me. And were he to try to, I'd leave the room. Or, if unable to do that, say in no uncertain words I don't want him there.

[tymorial]

14. Trump will never meet with individual victims unless he knows they are a die-hard racist magat

He can't handle any interpersonal conflict whatsoever so he will never allow himself to be placed in that position. If it were any other president I doubt we would have the same level of vitriol and hate coming out of the Oval Office. If we did and the president had more balls than Trump then yeah I would say unload.

I'm just imagining Obama talking about the Sandy Hook shooting and crying on camera about the loss of life. He wasn't to blame so why lay into him

[Vinca]

15. Call in the media and tell them on camera that you told him to stay away.

[Blue_true]

18. I would just say that I won't attend and say why.

An empty stage with the asshole beats yelling at him, the rightwing and the Press turn the latter against us.

[UpInArms]

19. I would prepare a written statement

And say that I would meet with him, as well as with your local newspaper and television station ...

I would read my statement and give copies of it to the news organizations

...

Good luck

[kentuck]

20. Rotating signs.

Big signs.

Hold them high.

Three or four signs would get their attention.

[Poiuyt]

21. Say that you'll meet with him and then turn your back on him when he shows up

Literally turn your back on him.

[PandoraAwakened]

22. Times like these call for creativity

If you really wanted to play the game, first you would have to convince his team that you're a rabid Magat (they won't allow him to be in a room with any other kind of person). This, however, would be pretty easy to do with even a modicum of acting ability because everyone knows this administration is made up of the biggest dumbasses ever to walk the halls of the White House.

Then, make sure you have the ability to video the interaction, like a pair of glasses or a button sewn on your clothes that videotapes and that you can purchase online or at one of those spy stores. (Again, easy to get away with surrounded by these dumbasses.)

Finally, make sure to have a precocious child with you who will interrupt the conversation at an opportune moment and ask the Orange Turd, "Did your mommy and daddy teach you to hate brown & black people? Are you going to kill me too? Are you the Devil?"
