In a tweet published shortly after 7 a.m. on Monday, President Donald Trump gave his “warmest condolences and sympathies” to the victims in the deadly Las Vegas shooting.

The President has been briefed on the shooting, White House Press Secretary Sarah Huckabee Sanders said in a Monday morning statement.
At least 50 people were killed and more than 200 were injured when a gunman opened fire on a music festival in Las Vegas Sunday night. The suspect, identified by the Clark County sheriff as Stephen Paddock, has died, police said.
Vice President Mike Pence followed up with a series of tweets offering his condolences to the victims of the shooting.
To victims, families & loved ones affected by this senseless violence in Las Vegas, Karen & I are praying for you & offering our love…

At least we know, he wrote it himself…
“Lemme guess…he’s heartless, he’s illiterate, he’s not very bright!”
“You’re getting warm…”
@clauscph beat me to it.
No “have a nice day”?
‘Warmest Condolences’?? wtf.
He just gets more disgusting as time rolls on.
Warmest condolences? This wasn’t Grandma passing away in her sleep. And WTF is it with the exclamation points after nearly every damned sentiment? “God bless you!”??? Is he tweeting with pom-poms and a bullhorn in hand?
I’m sorry for your loss!
We’re here in your time of need!
What can I do to help!
Do you think this spot might be Lyme’s Disease!
Fucking vulgarian.
