what just came out of my mouth, it'd go to jury, I'd lose, and probably get banned permanently. Even though what I said was accurate and applicable to that statement.

Let me simply say, therefore, that this is completely insensitive, utterly ignorant, and one hundred percent dismissive of the 49 lives lost. This tweet is unbecoming of a human being, much less a supposed leader.

Let me further say that I am very glad I did not vote for him, never considered voting for him, and would never vote for him in any race in the future, nor any candidate he endorses. Ever.
