    The Kenyan? I doubt anyone has ever accused you of being a class act, but this may be a new low for you.

    And maybe Donald was giving them space to be there and time to get themselves sorted in his mind. The POTUS dropping by isn't the same thing as you or me jumping in a car and this particular President may not be particularly welcomed in a New York hospital. Anyway,whatever his reason were, they are fine with me. I don't armchair quarterback other people's decisions in matters like these.

    I find your demands that people grieve of mourn in alignment with YOUR expectations is ridiculous. To use that expectation to push a political agenda. Wow. Congrats on the new low your setting.

    Can you imagine the logistics to get the President of the U.S. to the hospital to see his dying brother last minute? Give it a rest haters.

    I suggest you review the John Edwards passing thread. I prefer it kept congenial on these matters, but the right is no better.

    I heard that on Twitter #wrongtrump is trending pretty good among the hateful left. Remember, these are the people who wanted to punch Sandmann in the face and then put him through a wood chipper.

    There were plenty of posts from RWers that certainly weren't following the protocol that the RWers are now demanding for this thread.

    As I noted mourning is a private deal unless the family opens it up. EOS!

    Yes I agree and I am sure that I was not exactly broken hearted about the passing of Edwards. I probably liked him as much as I like Gingrich.

    The other post was dumb but it wasn't racist. And yes your post is racist because you are implying that Obama is Kenyan (based on no evidence) because he's black. Your post basically confirms what I already knew about you.

    yeah, after what Trump did to John McCain, I find it odd the right can even say that with a straight face

    My bad, I meant John Lewis. That is the latest thread where someone died in a high political office.

    People grieve in different ways.

    My mom died almost three years ago. I'd seen her the day before, we knew she was dying - her mind was there but it took her a minute for her body to process and answer anything you said to her. The next day, I got a call from her caretaker, she was going fast. I was in the car but literally twenty minutes after that I got another call that she had died. It was a long ninety minute drive. And I saw her dead and lifeless in her gurney, the same woman who'd been a vibrant and energetic mom to me and my sister, someone like an Energizer Bunny with a Disney fixation - she'd wanted to die at home - and I couldn't cry and didn't until days later. And I loved her even though she was kinda intense a lot of the time and often drove my wife nuts!

    I mean, people process grief and loss in different ways because we're all wired uniquely. I kinda haveta wonder about some of the posters here, have any of them had relatives die and seen differing reactions to it? Some of your posts - I dunno, I get you don't like Trump but this is just beyond the pale here.

    yep, I have no idea how Trump treated his brother in life or at the end, that is between Trump and his brother...

    I agree, and the death should never have been made into a public spectacle. The sibling of many a person also has died in the last 24 hours, and we do not make a mountain of public mourning over it. Dust to dust, ashes to ashes. /End.

    He helped to drive his other brother to suicide and used Robert as a scapegoat when his casinos went bankrupt. The sad fact is that trump cares as much for his brother as he does for anyone else, and that’s zero.
