Then that is what the media should be focusing on. It is not a matter of paying attention, whenever I hear something Trump in Europe (like now from the BBC) it is about one of his Twitter gaffes and not about the issues you mention.

Why do Facebook people walk out over a tweet and not over these issues? That is what is mind-boggling.

It's not a twitter gaffe to threaten to extrajudicially murder protestors / looters.
