Trump suggests "a little bit of a bonus" for trained teachers who are armed, throwing out 10%, 20% and 40% as possible percentages of teachers who might be qualified.
Also: "You can't hire enough security guards… Your need 100, 150 security guards.”

Seriously, wtf is he even talking about here?

Update:
Oh sweet zeus almighty, I just watched the context of this and it’s even more incomprehensible than the quote made it out to be:

TRUMP CALLS FOR MILITARIZED SCHOOLS: "I want a hardened school… I would like to see true people w/great talent at guns, being adept at guns, of which there is only a percentage of people. Whatever that percentage may be, it's substantial. You can't hire enough security guards." pic.twitter.com/WoLQFSm05T

This happened before Hamilton had hit the stage and there are two things I love about this.
1. It’s still pretty early in the creative process and isn’t quite polished yet. In fact, people in the audience aren’t really sure if it’s a goof or not and laugh a few times during the performance.
2. Seeing Obama in the White House is pretty jarring at the moment. Given the chaos that has engulfed the White House over the last year I never have missed Obama more (and he looks so young here!)

From Reddit.

.@NRA @DLoesch our good-hearted show and especially our Leslie Knope represent the opposite of your pro-slaughter agenda – take it down and also please eat shit. ?? https://t.co/Ar2YF4yoic

Hi, please take this down. I would prefer you not use a GIF from a show I worked on to promote your pro-slaughter agenda.

Also, Amy isn't on twitter, but she texted me a message: "Can you tweet the NRA for me and tell them I said fuck off?" https://t.co/YXSdzCdvdd
