Discussion: Trump Cancels Campaign Rally, Visit To Orlando In Wake Of FL School Shooting

“But he said Thursday he’ll make a separate trip to Parkland, Florida, to meet with families and local officials in the coming days.”

“Yeah, yeah, thoughts and prayers. Sorry for your loss. Look, I have a tee time in an hour. Gotta run.”

Mr. I could shoot someone on Fifth Avenue and not lose any votes, and the people who voted their guns like they were told to, and their dead children suddenly does not sound like a happy rally. Everybody loves that 2d Amendment bull shit until a couple of grim faced cops show up at their front door.

My sincere condolences go to America again in the face of the latest unnecessary tragedy.

If Trump visits Parkland, FL. after this tragedy, his appearance will be more choreographed than an American Ballet Theater production of “Swan Lake”.
There were over 1000 people at the candlelit vigil last night to mourn the victims of this mass shooting. I am sure the majority are wanting to scream “Fuck you!” or “Liar!” at him if he visits their community. And he deserves nothing less, as do any NRA-sucking GOP members who send “thoughts and prayers” and who say it’s “too soon to talk about gun control after this totally-not-preventable tragedy”. You’ll see Trump and Scott and Rubio jacking each other off and praising the cops and faking their goddamned concern. Personally, I wish the people of Parkland would storm wherever Trump is appearing and drag him and Scott and the rest of them out into the street to hear their concerns about gun violence.

I’m sure those kids would enjoy the fabulous chocolate cake at Mar-a-Lago. But they can’t BECAUSE THEY’RE DEAD you orange motherfucker.

I hope they give him what-for if / when he goes to Parkland.

I would max out my CC to buy and fly to be part of that scenario.
Probably need another CC to put up bail on myself also.

WOW! Trump is really full if it… RESPECT, that is.

Gee, I wonder if Trump got any tips about faking concern from Susan Collins.

It will be very interesting to see how they orchestrate donald’s visit. He can’t wait too long (for optics), and the Parkland parents and survivors are very compelling.

Maybe the tide will turn in favor of gun regulation. donald also will need to 'splain his revocation of the Obama era prevention of allowing mentally ill to easily obtain guns.

Perhaps his attempt to blame this shooting on mental illness will improve the lot of those who deal with mental illness…

Let me help him plan his visit.

It’s 39 miles away so that will take a year’s planning for the Coward in Chief. Maybe the people of Parkland can storm the gates of Trump’s gilded dump or maybe they can invade his golf course.

These parents and kids have great moral standing right now. My hearts sink for them, and I would never tell them how to grieve. But I hope they leverage their moral standing for good. I hope the entire community lines the road to Mar-A-Lago in black cloth. I hope they turn their backs on him. I hope they scream and chant and charge the stage (if there’s not one this time, maybe next time he comes to Florida).

Lord knows, I can’t imagine the sadness suffered by the relatives and friends. But it is a gross insult for the Orange Monster to confront them with his evil face during their grieving.

Pretty sure that’s another lie.

Toss them a few rolls of paper towels to dry their tears?
