The so-called president, who wants to give more guns to teachers to stop this sort of thing happening again, made the comments in a White House meeting with state governors.
“I really believe, you don’t know until you test it, I really believe I would run into … even if I didn’t have a weapon. I think most of the people in this room would have done that too.”

I find it hilarious that a man who has to hold a woman’s hand because he’s terrified of stairs thinks he’s capable of running into an active shooter situation with nothing but his own tiny fingers.

“Trump told Stern about an old man falling [at Mar-a-Lago].
‘I said, ‘Oh my God, that’s disgusting,’ and I turned away,” Trump said. “I didn’t want to touch him… he’s bleeding all over the place, I felt terrible. You know, beautiful marble floor.’” https://t.co/Rma3RAnXgU
