1. Why are they all laughing and grinning? Who are these people?

3. They are reportedly nurses at the hospital

There were two tweets that I didn't share here, because they weren't from news sources.

One posted the photo and said "Please tell me these aren't actors, that they are actually employees of the hospital."

Then there was a reply from someone who claimed to have called the hospital, was told that it's legit, and that they have been "getting calls" about the photo.

But, as I said, they were tweets from people I don't know, not news sources, so I just shared the photo without the commentary.

2. Racist-in-Chief and his admirers

4. Don't know how anyone could stand being near him

I'd immediately walk out of any room that asshole walked into.

5. I would love to be there, to give him a piece of my mind.

6. Who in the medical field laughs about murder?

Were these people caring for the injured victims? They are as soulless as the orange buffoon.

7. So how long until it comes out that these were pre-screened

to be sure that the supposed hospital staff (etc) who near him were Trumpsters? He sure as heck wouldn't allow anyone who didn't idolize him that close unless they were top brass he needed to get his photo-op and could bite their tongue. Mind you some people will also do just about anything to have their 10 seconds of fame near anyone famous.

The behavior of Trump and these people is so at odds with why he was there. It's downright pathetic and reflects poorly on the hospital.

8. This picture and others like it are suspicious to me.

These are supposed professional people whose profession would include a degree of sympathy, caring and empathy. Sadly they seem to be behaving like giddy school children . Something seems off to me.
