When it comes to scorching-hot 9/11 takes, there are plenty — and we mean plenty — to choose from. We’ve already told you about David Frum’s and Slate’s contributions. And now, not to be outdone, here comes Little Green Footballs’ Charles Johnson.
Ladies and gentlemen, gird your loins, because this one’s a doozy:
The 9/11 attacks were a horrific event in US history, but the election of Donald Trump will be seen as equally disastrous, if not more so.

Bravo, Charles.

But wait … there’s more!
I absolutely stand by this. Trump has already destroyed much of what's good about America, and it's getting worse every day.

Good Lord.
Don’t like Trump? That’s fine. But to not only compare his election to 9/11, but actually suggest it’s worse, goes beyond dislike. This is full-blown derangement.
Wow, throwing your hat in for dumbest tweet of the day eh?

Epic odious moral equivalence from someone that should know better. Wow.

.@ what? Are you kidding me. Go back to playing the guitar and smoking pot and leave the pontificating to some one sober.

You are so blinded by hate.
Open your mind.
Learn to hear.
I didn't vote Trump and I can see how this comparison is so emotional it's sad.— Lisa – ? Conservationist (@Lisa_from_SoCal) September 11, 2017

That is insulting to the fallen and their families ?

9/11 stands alone. And for you to try to equate anything to it shows your lack of thought. heart, and sentiment for a solemn day. You pos…

This is a sad way to get the attention you are so desperate for.
Sorry I'm adding to it.
