Trump can't resist exploiting any incident to make political points. Plugging his travel ban yesterday, going after gun control today. He's despicable.

But I think you're right that he used this incident for pure exploitation purposes. I doubt he even gives a flying fig about the victims.

It's not tens of thousands . But, there's a lot of deplorables in that photo.

She's a great actress and does not deserve to be used to complain about Trump.

Like it or not, that remark made it into popular culture, and it's the rationale behind Trump's use of that photo.

Everything isn't hate speech or attacks...you know?

Mostly it conveys the insecurities of a vainglorious person
obsessed that he's perceived as powerful and popular.
A petty, self-absorbed ruler, not a true leader.
