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.

Melania Just Held A Bizarre Press Conference To Debunk 'False Smears' Related To Jeffrey Epstein—And Everyone Had The Same Response

First Lady Melania Trump had everyone thinking the same thing after she held a bizarre press conference on Thursday to deny that she had anything but casual ties to Jeffrey Epstein, the late disgraced financier, pedophile, sexual abuser, and sex trafficker.

Mrs. Trump publicly denied any ties to convicted sex offenders Epstein and his procurer Ghislaine Maxwell, saying claims linking her to Epstein are “lies” meant to damage her reputation. She said she met her husband, President Donald Trump at a New York City party in 1998 and did not meet Epstein until 2000, contradicting a witness statement in the Epstein files that alleges Epstein introduced the couple.

Dem Rep. Sarah McBride Perfectly Shames Nancy Mace For Her Transphobic Response To McBride's Condemnation Of Trump

Delaware Democratic Representative Sarah McBride pushed back at South Carolina Republican Representative Nancy Mace after Mace responded with transphobia to McBride's criticism of President Donald Trump's genocidal threat to kill the "whole civilization" of Iran.

Trump has insisted that God supports his war on Iran and declared—before a provisional ceasefire was announced—that "a whole civilization will die tonight, never to be brought back again" ahead of a deadline to bomb Iran’s power plants and bridges that legal scholars and world leaders have said would constitute war crimes.

Vance addressed reporters on the tarmac at Budapest Ferenc Liszt International Airport as he left Hungary, where he had voiced the Trump administration’s support for Prime Minister Viktor Orbán only days before the country’s elections.

Comedian Explains How Millennials' Midlife Crises Are Different From Past Generations—And He's Spot On

Don't make promises you cannot keep, unless your goal is to hurt someone.

Millennials know that practically better than anyone. They were fed a long and impassioned series of advice, hyper-focused on the importance of getting a college degree in order to find a good job. They were also force-fed traditionalist ideals of getting married, having kids, and buying a nice house with the money they'd be making from that great job, of course.
