While Trump paid his respects to the victims of anti-semantic attack, liberals played politics

Washington Times:

President Trump paid his respects Tuesday to the victims of a mass shooting at a synagogue in Pittsburgh, while a coalition of liberal groups sought to gain partisan advantage by blaming the president for the tragedy and urging the public to “vote against anti-Semitism” on Election Day.

The president and first lady Melania Trump met privately with some of the wounded, with family members of some victims, and with first responders who confronted the gunman. They lit candles in the vestibule of the Tree of Life Synagogue steps from the sanctuary where the worshippers were gunned down. It is still a crime scene.

At a makeshift memorial outside the house of worship, the Trumps placed white flowers and small stones from a White House garden on 11 white Stars of David bearing the names of the dead. They chatted quietly with Rabbi Jeffrey Myers, who witnessed the attack Saturday and described the tragedy for them in step-by-step detail.

They were accompanied by Ivanka Trump and her husband, Jared Kushner, and Treasury Secretary Steven T. Mnuchin, all of whom are Jewish. Later at a hospital, the Trumps met with doctors and nurses who treated the wounded, and with four police officers who were wounded, including Officer Tim Matson, who is still in intensive care.

The president also met for about an hour with the widow of Dr. Richard Gottfried, who was killed in the attack.

“She said that she wanted to meet the president to let him know that people wanted him there,” said White House press secretary Sarah Huckabee Sanders.

Amid the president’s consoling visit, hundreds in the city’s Squirrel Hill neighborhood attended funerals for four of the victims: brothers David Rosenthal, 54, and Cecil Rosenthal, 59; Jerry Rabinowitz, 66; and Daniel Stein, 71.

Mr. Myers told mourners that the Rosenthal brothers had “not an ounce of hate in them, something we’re terribly missing in society today.”

Mrs. Sanders said the president “was very moved by the visit and his time with the rabbi, and called it very humbling and very sad.” She said the president commented how moved he was by the bravery of the first responders.

While the rabbi and many residents welcomed the president to the grieving community, others did not. On a street near the synagogue, hundreds of people who say Mr. Trump’s campaign rhetoric encourages violence marched to protest the president’s visit. There was at least one brief confrontation with police.

While the President's political opponents talk about hate, in some cases they wound up demonstrating their own hate for those with whom they disagree.  The fact is they hate Trump and are not willing to come together to honor the dead.
