President Obama has had trouble figuring out motives in the past, and Thursday night’s attack on Dallas police is another one of those times:

Obama "very hard to untangle the motives of this shooter" … HIS MOTIVE WAS TO KILL COPS. WHAT DO YOU NOT GET ABOUT THAT!?

Kill white cops. It was as simple as that for a motive…
