Trump calls Renee Good's death a 'tragedy,' says he hopes her father still supports him

Trump calls Renee Good’s death a ‘tragedy,’ says he hopes her father still supports him

President Donald Trump said during Tuesday’s White House press briefing that he feels bad about Renee Good’s death.

… “They’re going to make mistakes sometimes. ICE is going to be too rough with somebody, or they’re dealing with rough people,” Trump said. “They’re going to make a mistake sometimes. It can happen. We feel terribly. I felt horribly when I was told that the young woman ... the tragedy. It’s a tragedy. It’s a horrible thing. Everybody would say, ICE would say the same thing.”

… “When I learned her parents, and her father in particular, I hope he still is, but I don’t know, were tremendous Trump fans. He was all for Trump. Loved Trump, and it’s terrible,” the president added. “I was told that by a lot of people. They said, ‘Oh, he loves you.’ He was. I hope he still feels that way.”


This was from that insane press conference today. What the hell - did he just admit this murder was unjustified? That ICE was wrong? All because he found out her father might be a Trumper and he doesn’t want to lose a fan.

This should be bigger news.

It could help with the lawsuit that will surely be coming.

TSF's Obi-Wan was Roy Cohn.

I just wonder, with his guru's Genovese business ties, did Unser Fuhrer take notes from one of the family's top guys Vincent "Chin" Gigante...

about what The Dotard says is, whether intentional or not, some Grade A sane-washing.

One cannot write a headline about this shitbag's babble which doesn't sane-wash because his bumblefuck manner of speaking is inherently made less insane by any summarization and/or paraphrasing.

At this point, I blame all his Republican enablers who have absolutely no decency.
