It beggars belief. Or maybe not. Nothing should surprise us any more about Trump's lack of judgement and humanity.
A family in mourning pleaded for understanding and sensitivity. Instead, the President of the United States thought it was funny to share a video of a mentally ill man being mauled to death by a tiger. Trump has no judgement, no class, no humanity.

Great to see the Pride in Place initiative officially launched in #Darlington last night with @TheNorthernEcho as media partner. £20m will be invested in the town's most disadvantaged communities - and it has already been the catalyst for more investment

If you are going to take a cheap shot, at least try to spell the name of the place correctly.

You couldn't make it up....
The Two Press Corps
American reporter: Mr. President, Iran says it now controls the Strait of Hormuz. Your response?
Trump: Which news agency are you with?
Reporter: Reuters, sir.
Trump: Fake news.
Reporter: Thank you, Mr. President.
The reporter sits down. The next hand goes up with a question about the White House ballroom.
Later the same afternoon.
European reporter: Mr. President, Iran says it controls the Strait of Hormuz. Tanker traffic is down forty percent. What is your plan?
Trump: Which agency are you with?
Reporter: Deutsche Presse-Agentur. And the question stands.
Trump: Fake news. Total fake news.
Reporter: The shipping data comes from your own Department of Energy, sir. Are they fake news too?
Trump: Next question.
Reporter: That was the next question.
Two reporters, same question, same non-answer. The difference is what happened next. One said thank you and sat down. The other stayed standing and asked again. Access is not journalism. Follow-up questions are.

The #Darlington Round Table Santa Sleigh has brought joy to local streets for 50 years. Now it's being replaced by a new sleigh built by the splendid Viking Boat Company. They've built a Viking longboat - they can build Santa a new sleigh! @DarlingtonRT
