MDC 5,874 Posted August 9, 2019 Grinning Trump gives thumbs-up with baby whose parents were shot dead in El Paso terror attack Infant was brought for photo op at hospital where patients refused to meet president 2 hours ago It is the sort of photo politicians have long been known to favour: adorable baby, thumbs up, big smiles. Few, however, would surely pose this way in such grave circumstances. Donald Trump has sparked global revulsion after being photographed grinning with a two-month-old child who was made an orphan during Saturday’s mass shooting in El Paso which left 22 people dead. The infant’s adopted parents, Andre and Jordan Anchondo, were both killed in the supermarket massacre, while he himself suffered broken bones when Ms Anchondo fell on the child to shield him from further bullets. But when the baby, called Paul, was brought to the US president at the University Medical Center of El Paso, the 73-year-old appeared untouched by the child’s tragic plight. Both he and first lady Melania smiled for cameras, while the commander-in-chief also threw in a thumbs up. The photo emerged as Mr Trump already faced criticism for his behaviour during his visit to the city on Thursday. Doctors said he appeared to “lack empathy”, while he was filmed bragging to medical staff – who have spent the week dealing with the aftermath of the massacre – about the size of a rally he had previously held there. https://www.independent.co.uk/news/world/americas/trump-melania-baby-el-paso-thumbs-up-hospital-parents-mass-shooting-a9049086.html?utm_medium=Social&utm_source=Facebook&fbclid=IwAR13QWlC_asLVZQxxAaQKs7XHJjNZNpctFsPjY2uaLmRpGib0JdGUHghFwQ#Echobox=1565345894 Looks like the POTUS accepted tone deafness for his million.

Fair question, though the White House staff actually called the family to bring the baby to the hospital for the photo op since the baby had been discharged already.

Playing devil's advocate here, but that still doesn't mean that they informed Trump of the situation... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Since the left is allowing young children to determine their own sexuality (as young as 2-3 years old) then we should ClEARLY be getting their opinions on political topics as well.

So... what exactly is MDC's sexuality? Or, that's probably better left unknown. We already know he's a whiney, weeping, butt hurt, hillary groupie. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
