In the "listening session" with shooting survivors and their families, tRump's crib note reminded him to say "I hear you."
tRump was never likely to listen to school shooting survivors and their families at his White House listening session. But his crib note was absurdly on the nose, with a reminder to articulate the message, I hear you.
The reminder came at the end of a numbered list, including points like What would you most want me to know about your experience? and What can we do to make you feel safe?
Its a sentiment one wouldnt think the president would need to be reminded of. But the easily bored and infamously self-obsessed tRump is no ordinary president.
His chief prescription was the unabashed NRA talking point that we should arm school faculty. Schools need people very adept at using firearms, he said.
tRump did not seem to know there was already an armed guard on the campus of Marjory Stoneman Douglas High, where 17 people were murdered. - Shareblue

known to be clueless about such things.
At least the notes weren't written on his hand as Palin's were.
