Summary

This morning we begin with the heartbreaking news that one of the National Guard members shot in Washington, D.C. has now passed away after the horrific attack near the White House. But even in a moment like this, Donald Trump is doing what he always does, using a national tragedy to push his own agenda and turn the focus back onto himself. Instead of leading with empathy or unity, he’s choosing self-interest and political opportunism. Don breaks down the details of this terrible incident, the reaction from officials, and Trump’s response, which once again reveals exactly where his priorities lie.
