Donald Trump's Chant Of Uvalde Victims' Names At NRA Rally Curdles Critics' Blood

ormer President Donald Trump’s mangled recitation of the names of the 21 Uvalde, Texas, mass shooting victims at the National Rifle Association’s convention on Friday made Twitter critics’ blood run cold.

The names of the 19 children and two teachers, broken up into hardly recognizable syllables in Trump’s stumbling pronunciation, were interspersed with the funereal sound of a gong.

Despite the tragedy, Trump hailed the NRA in his speech at its convention in Houston and ended his remarks with his trademark clenched fists and “cha-cha-cha” dance move.

He blamed the horrific bloodshed at yet another American school on “broken families” — and called efforts to curb gun violence “grotesque.”

Twitter users found the entire spectacle horrifying.

Everything about him is horrifying, not just this spectacle. I found myself once again (I have been doing so well since President Biden took over) yelling at the TV screen and using the F word when they showed his ugly puss. It was an automatic visceral reaction to having to see the media covering him once again.
