World, you see that he is all about partisan ship and not acting presidential. not the person we need in the time of grief to heal our wounds. he is somebody who will simply pour salt into the wounds. >> all this was unfolding i kept thinking about the phrase have you no decency? talking about the love and respect he got in ohio. it was like, what did that have to do with anything? no matter the occasion he makes it about himself. why cant he just say the people are suffering here. americans are...

To help these victims. >> i want to hear from you. >> here is the bottom line. today was not supposed to be about donald trump but he is such a malignant narcissist he cant allow one minute of one day in the wake of two massacres to go by without it being about him. hes not the consoler in chief, hes the victim in chief. everything about him is about victimizing poor me. i mean for goodness sakes, pull up your big boy pants and act like the president of the united states and rise to the occasion...

Meeting with him and trying to kind of go through the motions that typically happen after a shooting, after a crisis in a home state when the president comes there. and its pretty stunning, frankly, because he just continues to hurt himself and really cant get away from the political day-to-day hitting back, punching back on twitter. i think the real question is going to be how does this issue play over the summer in august back when all these members of congress are back home? do they actually ...

Youre right. we have to put it to him. we do it every day. he knows that. he did smart move. keeping himself out of public visibility today. he went to the hospital. hes right to do that its respectful. he avoided people he knew he wasnt in his own backyard. there are other people who will have the vote this happened a long time before him, and if it doesnt change because the people nand it, it will continue long after. >> i learned a lot. and im very grateful for the people in the room who show...
