Team tRump in hiding after kids die in 18th school shooting of the year
tRump and his team went into hiding when more than a dozen kids were shot and killed in their school.
<snip>
Instead of standing up in front of cameras and the entire nation, unifying the country in a moment of tragedy and pushing for something — anything — to stop the carnage, the White House went into hiding.
tRump hid behind a pair of perfunctory tweets, substituting emotion and empathy with hollow words recycled from the last time innocent Americans were massacred thanks to the nation’s addiction to gun violence.
<snip>
For the tRump administration, it is always too soon after a gun massacre to speak about doing anything — even though tRump never hesitates to call for anti-immigrant policies in the immediate wake of a tragedy.
But when tragic fatalities do not suit his agenda, tRump and his minions go silent, shut the door, and count the latest donations from the NRA. - ShareBlue
