This fucking hospital visit...

Like most of us have said from the beginning, there's no bottom.

When he reaches the bottom of the barrel, he chews through it and keeps digging.

Something is not right here.

These people are in the hospital for a reason. They have grave injuries, not to mention the emotional pain they are trying to come to grips with.

And this asshole and these "nurses" are yucking it up? No press allowed in?

Fuck this guy. Sideways.

And something happened to my family, them coming to meet us would be consoling.

Trump? No thanks.

I actually thought about this a lot and in the beginning, I thought it was a good idea for trump to go. But then I thought about his personality and how he isn't an empathic person.

I bet however some parents might still like trump so I dunno. I just know he isn't the consoling type.

as fake as those supporters surrounding him then he descended his golden escalator. ALL PAID, unemployed actors. This is why he took a few days to show up. They had to round up enough people willing to pretend to support him - for a price. Someone is delving into this, asking anyone if they recognize any of those fake medical workers. I could not pretend to support the orange anus even for $$$$.

We are pretty good here, and can even report such posts.

Sad thing is it's kooky speculation, but it's not as kooky as it would be with any other administration.

None of the eight patients still being treated at University Medical Center in El Paso agreed to meet with Trump when he visited the hospital, UMC spokesman Ryan Mielke said. Two victims who already had been discharged returned to the hospital with family members to meet with the president.

I thought I had linked to the post which quoted this.

Please reconsider your comment.
