The fucking toad did it...

The visit comes despite the wishes of some political and religious leaders and Pittsburgh residents who felt that the president should come at a later date — or not at all...

The president's trip also comes on the same day as the first funerals for those killed Saturday.

The city's Democratic mayor, Bill Peduto, urged the president not to come while friends and families were burying their loved ones. "I do believe that it would be best to put the attention on families this week and if he were to visit, choose a different time to do it," Peduto told CNN.

He is taking resources away from these families trying to bury their dead. No one wanted him there, which is (in my opinion) exactly why he went anyway. He has NEVER gone to pay respects anywhere... so why now.

Ivanka and Jared?

Or because he is a selfish fuckwad who has to make everything about him.

When the leaders of Pittsburgh indicated Trump should avoid Pittsburgh now, you know he was going to show up. He is that kind of asshole.
 
On the plus side, he was soundly ignored.

No politicians (R or D) agreed to go with him, and only 1 local official met him at the airport.
 
Who was that fucker? Can you vote him out next month?

I don't know if that guy had a choice. None of the city, county or state level Republicans would meet Trump at the airport either. :lol:

To be fair, one of the rabbis from the synagogue that was attacked said Trump would be welcome to visit.

AFTER Trump announced he was going no matter what anyone said.

Apparently Trump's people even lied to politicians in both Philadelphia and DC - telling multiple people that other people had already agreed to join Trump in Pittsburgh in an effort to get others to go as well. This is bipartisan... all refused him because the community begged him to wait until next week - after the funerals when security resources would be available.

Basically, the city was forced to pull resources away from protecting the grieving families trying to bury their dead to protect the disgusting dotard.

The White House was also trying to force meetings between Trump and hospitalized victims, and the family of Daniel Stein.
