The Appalling Trump - again.

[Lilith7]

He genuinely does seem to be lacking empathy.

"Donald Trump┬átold an audience at a campaign event on Friday in Iowa to ÔÇ£get overÔÇØ a deadly shooting at a high school in the state a day earlier.



After offering sympathy and emotional support for the victims of the shooting in Perry, Iowa, and their families, Trump┬ásaid┬áat the event in Sioux Center: ÔÇ£ItÔÇÖs just horrible ÔÇô so surprising to see it here. But we have to get over it. We have to move forward.ÔÇØ
TrumpÔÇÖs comments on the shooting that occurred about 36 hours earlier were the first he had made addressing the violence.
FridayÔÇÖs remarks were not the first time in the last year that Trump has apparently tried to deflect from having a substantial conversation about gun violence in the US. During a┬áspeech┬áin April 2023 to the National Rifle Association, Trump argued that the long history of deadly school shootings in the US is ÔÇ£not a gun problemÔÇØ. He instead blamed the issue on Democrats, mental health issues, marijuana and the transgender community.

TrumpÔÇÖs recent comment on the Perry shooting was criticized by the Democratic Super Pac American Bridge.

ÔÇ£We knew Trump lacked empathy for others, but no one thought he could go this low and tell Iowans to simply ÔÇÿget over itÔÇÖ as they grieve from a situation communities across the country know all too well,ÔÇØ the American Bridge presidential campaigns communication director, Brandon Weathersby, said in a┬ástatement┬áon TrumpÔÇÖs comments. ÔÇ£This is beyond the pale, even for Trump.ÔÇØ

And as proof that Trump has now lost the plot completely he has released this video. Apparently it's not (meant as) a parody  

Oh....dear! 

It was either laugh or vomit, laughing won! Unbloodybelievable...
