d'antonio. author of "everything trump touches dies." good evening one and all. i'm going to start with you because you're not in the studio. let's do that. the president's trip was a disaster. his own aide are conceding that. you saw the video. he's there after a mass shooting. he's bragging about his crowd size several months earlier. i mean, there are no words for this, rick. >> i say this a lot. there is no better version of donald trump. there is no -- there is no thoughtful donald trump. there is no empathetic donald trump. what you see is exactly what you get. when he reads from a teleprompter, that's the lie. when he talks like he did there, that's who he is. this is a man with no empathy, with a low character, he is a person who does not have any recognition of the suffering of other people or of the role he is supposed to play as the american president in terms of bringing the nation together, consoling people and putting other people before his own
