Add...
By travelling to Pittsburgh, Trump is ignoring a plea from Pittsburgh's mayor that Trump refrain from visiting "while we are burying the dead."

"Our attention and our focus is going to be on them."

The first funeral is planned for Tuesday. washingtonpost.com/politics/presi…
Add...
Conway framed Pittsburgh shooting as being about "anti-religiosity" writ large.

"The anti-religiosity in this country that is somehow in vogue... making fun of people who express religion, the late night comedians,.. It's always anti-religious."

Day 213 without Trump publicly offering his condolences for Master Sgt. Jonathan Dunbar, the fallen American service member who lost his life after an IED bombing in Syria. Why?
Add...
Day 213 Since Hope Hicks left as Trump’s 4th Communications Director after testifying to a Congressional committee that she had told "white lies" on Trump's behalf.

Sarah Sanders also refused to rule out suspension of “posse comitatus” restrictions on deployment of US military to enfore laws within American borders.
Add...
Sarah Sanders said that Trump got elected by an overwhelming majority of 63 million Americans.

Reminder: Hillary Clinton got 2.9 million more votes in that election.

Up to 14,000 troops will be ready to deploy to the southern border. Troops will be armed with lethal ammunition. There’s an additional 7,000 troops on 24-hour stand-by per Pentagon documents obtained by @Newsweek newsweek.com/migrant-carava…
Add...
While Trump calls for more, the other troops already at the border are literally, in some cases, shoveling manure because they don't have enough to do. politico.com/magazine/story…

Add...
Day 70 since Trump was implicated as an unindicted co-conspirator in violating federal campaign finance laws to keep affairs quiet and Congress has refused to call for investigations and impeachment.

Is Trump above the law?

Add...
Day 11 since Saudi Arabia acknowledged the death of U.S. resident, WaPo columnist Jamal Khashoggi, claiming he died from an alleged October 2nd "fist fight" inside their Turkey consulate.
