Trump ahead of visit with Texas shooting survivors: 'We are going to have a little fun'

Source: The Hill



BY JOHN BOWDEN - 05/31/18 02:10 PM EDT

President Trump on Thursday told reporters that he and his team would be having "fun" on a trip to Texas where the president is expected to meet with survivors from last week's deadly school shooting in Santa Fe.

Trump made the comment to reporters as he was boarding Air Force One to leave for the Lone Star state, where he is also expected to appear at several GOP fundraisers.




The remark was noticed by gun violence activists, who questioned Trump's use of the word to describe a trip with to meet shooting survivors and first responders.




Trump is scheduled to meet with survivors of last week's deadly shooting at a Santa Fe, Texas high school where 10 people were killed when a gunman attacked the school with guns reportedly stolen from the suspect's father.

There are no words left to describe how horrible, self-absorbed and completely devoid of compassion he is. I don't think there has ever been anyone quite so evil in my lifetime.
