Not ONE shred of decency





The Trumps: Not enough humanity to offer condolences when someone DIES in a fire in their tower.
Not enough humanity to realise that they SHOULD offer condolences in these circumstances. I can pretty much guarantee that it did not even occur to them.

A basic lack of decency and humanity.

America is being run by a Psychopath with a Narcissistic Personality Disorder.

Your remark echoes that of my husband who, when told the Trumps thanked the firefighters, but failed to reach out to the deceased's family said 'Well, sure..The firefighters take care of the building"!

Not only the damages from the fire but of that really damaging thing to his reputation that the dumb death in one of his properties might cause him. That’s rent he won’t be enriching himself on for a while. And then there’s the really irritating inconvenience of prospective rich people not wanting to rent there due to the fire. Who the hell wants to rent where there have been fires?

These things are very important for real estate moguls!

When ever there's a mass school shooting or accident .... praises the first responders and ER doctors for doing a great job, and completely ignores the families who lost loved ones. It's like he is completely incapeable of expressing sympathy.

3:45 PM PT -- The Prez says the fire at Trump Tower is out, adding ... "Very confined (well built building). Firemen (and women) did a great job. THANK YOU!"

4:00 PM PT
-- Trump may have spoke too soon, because FDNY's reporting the Trump Tower fire's now a 4-alarm, and there's been at least one serious injury to a civilian.

4:30 PM PT
-- FDNY remains on the scene of the 4-alarm fire, and along with one serious civilian injury ... 4 non-life-threatening injuries to firefighters have been reported.

5:15 PM PT
-- Law enforcement sources tell TMZ ... a 67-year-old man has died in the fire. According to FDNY, he was the occupant of the 50th floor apartment where the fire occurred. The fire's reportedly under control but smoke conditions on the floors above are still being dealt with.
