Watching live on CNN, Anderson Cooper is reporting that although the President was informed of the bombing, they only got a WH aid to speak on his behalf about it, saying that he was appreciative of the first responders and were praying for them. But also reported that he is not expected to speak directly on camera about the event today. But he has once again spent today bitching about how unfair the election has been on Twitter, and golfing again.
And normally it is tradition for a President to allow the press in while talking to the Troops on a holiday. But the asshole is refusing to let the press in, because he doesn't want to take questions about the sudden flip on the rescue amount going from $600 to him now claiming he wants $2,000. Plus he doesn't want to take questions about nixing a pay raise for military members.
That is NOT how you lead. At a minimum a sane President would make a public statement about such an event shortly after it happens to re assure the public that they will not stop until the perp/s are caught.
But then again, we are talking about this asshole.
