Trump Tells Liberals Uncomfortable With Public Execution To Just Imagine It's A Healthcare CEO
As public debate continued over the scheduled live-streaming of terrorist Nidal Hasan's death by firing squad, President Donald Trump told liberals who are uncomfortable with public executions to just imagine that it's a healthcare CEO.
Trump's suggestion came on the heels of public outcry that live-streaming Hasan's execution is barbaric. The trick, Trump said, is for the liberals to view the man who went on a murderous rampage at Fort Hood and killed 14 people with the same level of disdain as an executive of a healthcare corporation.
"If they picture him that way, they'll cheer for it," Trump told reporters in the Oval Office. "It's very easy. They say, ‘Oh, we can't be happy that a man is being shot to death.' But if you tell them to think of him the same way they think of healthcare CEOs, they'll be celebrating it, believe me. They hate the healthcare people, don't they? So nasty toward them. They're happy when they get shot, if you can believe it. But they're very angry about a terrorist being executed. Very sad about it. Very backwards, the liberals."
When asked if they could get on board with Hasan's public execution if they imagine him being a healthcare CEO, one liberal voiced strong support. "Oh yeah, definitely," said Dean Huff. "We're absolutely, one hundred percent against the death penalty in all its forms. Unless it's a healthcare CEO. If we can picture the person being executed as one of those, we're cool with it. We might even host watch parties."
At publishing time, liberals also admitted that they would be in favor of Hasan's execution if they could picture him as an unborn baby.
