    Just an opportunity here for those that are not sickos to express condolences instead of participate in some sick twisted conspiracy theory thread. Anyone who has lost a brother or sister knows this is a tough day for Trump. My heart goes out to him and his family.


    "It is with heavy heart I share that my wonderful brother, Robert, peacefully passed away tonight," the president wrote. "He was not just my brother, he was my best friend. He will be greatly missed, but we will meet again.

    Let's hope the right shows the same respect as they did for John Lewis.

    And it begins . The left just can’t find it in themselves to express any sorrow for our president losing his brother. How sad is that.

    I wonder why they didn’t say maybe he is “looking up” from hell or “it is what it is”?
    Rhetorical question, we all know why.

    I agree the responses to John Lewis were completely out of line, I prefer not to take that road. Good recall though.

    I totally agree and let's hope this will not mirror the comments and thread title we saw when Representative Lewis passed away or when MCCain died.

    Since the brother was not a celebrity or a politician or universally known there is no logical reason why hatred should be thrown at his memory.

    I for one did not realize that Trump still had a surviving brother until I heard that he was trying to stop his niece( obviously Trump's niece) from publishing her book.

    A human being passed away and if he was not Trump's brother he would not be mentioned in the new or here. Facts are he was Trump's brother.

    The correct human thing to do is offer the Trump family as a whole condolences and may the gentleman Rest In Peace.

    Amen!

    Hey the John Lewis thread title was allowed to live in infamy.

    Losing family members is never easy.

    While I was not involved in the ankle biting with John Lewis, nor would I be, one has to remember that Mr. Lewis made himself political, Robert Trump did not. Unfortunately, being political also paints a verbal target on you.

    Not when it comes to YOU being respectful ! That has nothing to do with anyone else. Being disrespectful is a personal choice

    I made no reference to the news, I'm talking about people here on PF. Feel free to go back and read the John Lewis threads.

    I mean RIP to Mr.Lewis, but the dude literally sipphoned off the government tit while calling it civil rights. No different from the Detroit rep Conyers and others like him. They essentially took credit for things they never did or things that never helped anyone. Pelosi's biggest regret is not being able to bolster her portfolio in the same way.
