President Donald Trump on Friday morning reacted to reports that at least 49 people were killed in a massacre at a mosque in New Zealand by offering the U.S.’s support and expressing “warmest sympathy” to the country.
At least 49 people were killed in a shooting at a mosque in New Zealand on Friday.
My warmest sympathy and best wishes goes out to the people of New Zealand after the horrible massacre in the Mosques. 49 innocent people have so senselessly died, with so many more seriously injured. The U.S. stands by New Zealand for anything we can do. God bless all!

“Warmest sympathy and best wishes.”
And no mention of terrorism or white supremacist terror.
Fat Nixon is an inhuman psychopath.
Guess the idiot’s tweet minder had the morning off.
“Warmest sympathy and best wishes.”
And no mention of terrorism or white supremacist terror.
His warmest sympathy & best wishes are for those white supremacist terrorists.
Even a cursory denouncement of hate would have been a good thing to see, especially in light of reports that one of the shooters expressed admiration for Trump in the document he wrote.
But we have the president we have, not the one we wish we had.
Trump’s “sympathy” is warm, but never deep.
