He missed his Inauguration Party because of a government shutdown. He couldn't risk missing another.

President Donald Trump made a visit to Broward North Health Hospital on Friday on his way to his golf resort. He met with just 2 of the 14 survivors of Wednesday's school shooting, and for a total of only 35 minutes. But it gets even worse.


It was all smiles and thumbs up for Trump as he attempted the role of Consoler-In-Chief for victims of Wednesday's school shooting in Florida.

Take a moment to compare this to President Obama's reaction to the 2012 school shooting in Newtown, Connecticut that killed 20 children and 6 teachers. Here he is seen wiping away tears.

And he sacrificed a whole round of golf for the photo op.

The President then met with emergency services personnel and law enforcement, telling them they are doing an "incredible job, and everybody is talking about it."

After listening to the officer who arrested the gunman tell his story, Trump said, "that was so modest; I would have told it much differently," Trump said. "I would have said without me, they never would have found him." Yes. Trump actually said that.

He also may have committed a "little light treason," but who's counting.

Trump then continued to Mar-A-Lago, where he threw a party and spent the weekend golfing.

Trump, in classic "everything is cool because I'm Donald Trump" style, was pictured partying with voluptuous blondes, appearing to be hosting quite the soiree. First Lady Melania Trump was reportedly nowhere to be found.

Following the shooting, Trump blamed victims, survivors, their families, and school officials for not preventing the attack.

"So many signs that the Florida shooter was mentally disturbed, even expelled from school for bad and erratic behavior. Neighbors and classmates knew he was a big problem. Must always report such instances to authorities, again and again!" Trump tweeted less than 24 hours after the incident.

One survivor of the attack completely torpedoed Trump's claim, recalling that the shooter had been a well-known threat within their community for years. The heart-wrenching video is below.

Five days later, Trump has yet to put forth any policy proposals to prevent these types of preventable tragedies from happening in the future. While victims and their families grieve and plead for gun control reform, Trump is left to wonder about the round of golf that got away.

'Dr. Pimple Popper' Star Reveals She Suffered Stroke While Filming Series: 'I Had A Part Of My Brain That Died'

It's already scary to witness a younger person go through a life-changing medical diagnosis, but it's especially jarring to see a medical professional, who presumably knows best about how to care for themselves, go through the same.

Sandra Lee, known as "Dr. Pimple Popper" on Lifetime, is well-known for her bedside manner, medical knowledge and ability to share her knowledge in an accessible way, and, of course, her unique approach to dermatological care.

Rob Schneider Dragged For Criticizing Elizabeth Banks' 'Dangerous Rhetoric' After She Called Out White Female Trump Voters

After actor and filmmaker Elizabeth Banks—who played Effie Trinket in The Hunger Games—called out white women who voted for President Donald Trump, MAGA actor Rob Schneider lashed out against what he referred to as her "dangerous rhetoric."

Those who've read the book and seen the film adaptation of The Hunger Games know that Trinket—known for joyfully announcing, "Happy Hunger Games and the odds may be ever in your favor!"—is a mistress of propaganda for a hostile government that forces teenagers to fight to the death every year to intimidate critics and keep society's poorest and most vulnerable in line. Trinket eventually embraces the rebellion.

Kid Rock Dragged After Offering Massive Discount To His MAGA Festival Due To Abysmal Ticket Sales

Musician Kid Rock has hitched his wagon to president Donald Trump for quite some time now, and it seems he too is in the "find out" stage of that particularly exercise in FAFO.

It seems that when the president you form your entire personality around craters to a catastrophic approval rating even for him, your ship starts to sink too.

Trump's Border Czar Ripped For Hypocrisy After Telling Pope Leo To 'Stay Out Of Politics'

President Donald Trump's border czar Tom Homan was called out for hypocrisy after telling Pope Leo XIV to "stay out of politics" after he clashed with Trump over the widely unpopular war in Iran.

Last week, Pope Leo criticized the war and called on the world "to reject war, especially a war which many people have said is an unjust war, which is continuing to escalate and is not resolving anything."
