Trump is making his visit to Scalise at hospital a political event (cameras and all)

[anneboleyn]

Sigh.

[Historic NY]

1. Is he going to kiss the boo boo and make it all better.

[dalton99a]

3. "Nobody heals better than me"

[HipChick]

5. Critical and ICU?

[phylny]

9. That's what I'm thinking. Dear God, the man has no sense or shame. n/t

[HipChick]

22. Latest update is not good...

2. Grandstanding for any photo op. Yet could barely say a word for other victims until now

[kerry-is-my-prez]

18. Have yet to see him verbally speak out on any other tragedies.

[Freethinker65]

4. Melania will be three paces behind with a box from Tiffany & Co

Let him have his photo op

[anneboleyn]

17. Apparently she had flowers. No photos yet (I wonder if there's a backlash against Trump visiting

the hospital)

[roamer65]

6. What a scumbag.

[monmouth4]

7. If Scalise were a Dem I wonder if 45 would would be concerned enough to visit..Ha, sometimes I kill

me...sigh.

[ginny skinny]

8. Will he demand a loyalty oath...

...or a cabinet style ass kissing from Scalise ?

[Docreed2003]

10. If I were Scalise's doctor...I wouldn't let Trump anywhere near my patient...

I don't care what political persuasion, a patient in the ICU recovering from Trauma doesn't need that kind of stress. I don't expect Trump to have that kind of insight or compassion though.

[kerry-is-my-prez]

20. They usually only let spouses or kids into an ICU.

[WePurrsevere]

11. Of course he is. He can't stand to have the attention off of him BUT...

please tell me that he's not going inside to visit with Scalise and certainly not with all of his entourage is he? This should be a time for the man and all the other patients in there to have peace and quiet to aid in their recovery.

If Scalise is still in critical condition, I would think he'd be in the critical care ward which is normally very restrictive about visitors no less with a bunch of cameras and reporters in tow.

[anneboleyn]

19. No photos. Apparently dropped off flowers. (Melania had flowers)

[Ilsa]

12. I can't imagine the doctors allowing anyone but

Family into the ICU, but he's king donald, so I guess they'll have to let him in.

[NotMyFuhrer]

13. Is he bringing his friends from the NRA or lawmakers that allowed mentally ill people to get guns?NT

[ProudLib72]

14. Screw that

If I were Scalise's family, I wouldn't let him in. If I were Scalise, I wouldn't let him in. I'd be offended because it's an obvious photo op.

[Me.]

15. And Comey Isn't There To Stop Him

[6000eliot]

16. As long as this monster occupies the White House,

he will find a way to make EVERY event, no matter how tragic, about himself.

[judesedit]

21. I hardly heard a thing when Dylann Roof slaughtered the church members

And they called Sandy Hook a hoax. A white dude just murdered 5 people a few says ago. Hardly heard a word. Remember Palin's crosshairs. And all of the inciting during the campaign and after. Spare me. A politician's life is no more valuable than anyone else's.

[Kleveland]

23. Dispicable.

What a surprise.

How about some statement regarding the poor Americans who defended the Muslim citizens on the Portland train?

How about anything to convince us that you are not one of the most evil fucks ever!

[MFM008]

24. Steve Scalise

Probably unconscious .

[judesedit]

25. Rump's carelessness just killed many in Asia including American servicemen

Not one word
