President Trump Visits Florida Hospital Following School Shooting

Finally, President Trump acknowledged the parents of the victimized students:

“I was at the hospital with the parents and they are very very thankful for the job. They’re in really great shape considering most people would not have been. They are really thankful.”

On Friday morning, the President tweeted about his then upcoming visit to Pompano Beach:

I will be leaving for Florida today to meet with some of the bravest people on earth – but people whose lives have been totally shattered. Am also working with Congress on many fronts.

The Aftermath of the Florida High School Shooting

The aftereffects of the shooting at Marjory Stoneman Douglas High School are viewed as tragic by the majority of America. In many regards, the shooting has been heavily politicized.

After the news broke, many liberals took to social media to slam Republicans and the NRA, prior to calling for stricter gun control measures. However, conservatives countered the foregoing attacks by citing mental health as the problem and not guns.

Americans are moreover looking into the background and past behavior of the shooter. Rumors and allegations that Cruz had connections to white supremacists have surfaced, however, sources now allege that the aforementioned connections are nonexistent.
