It's so unbelievably depressing that these folks, going through the worst grief imaginable, end up having to teach a 70-year old man how to behave like a human. https://t.co/wRH0zvkTxs

The mother of a teenage girl killed earlier this month in a massacre at Santa Fe High School in Texas tells PEOPLE she challenged President Donald Trumpâs views on gun violence during his Thursday meeting with survivors of the mass shooting and families of the victims.
Trump, 71, repeatedly called the gunman âwackyâ while speaking at the gathering, at a Houston military base, according to Rhonda Hart…
She then explained that her daughter had anxiety, Aspergerâs syndrome and attention-deficit/hyperactivity disorder and âtook medicine daily.â
âI said, â[The shooter] might have been depressed, but he wasnât wacky.â But if that kid needed help, he needed to have proper access to it,â Hart says, âmeaning you shouldnât repeal the Affordable Care Act [one of Trumpâs cardinal promises] and get them the help they need and take away the stigma of mental illness.â
She says she told Trump, âMental illness needs to be addressed.â
âI said all that and he didnât say anything,â she says. âHe was just like, âUhhhh âŚâ â
So… when do we get to the part where I talk about my bigly Electoral College win?
Per The Hill:
The mother of a Texas school shooting victim said that in a recent meeting with families, President Trump repeatedly suggested arming teachers as a way to combat school shootings…
Hart, who is an Army veteran, told the AP that she suggested employing veterans in schools to serve as guards, and that he responded, âand arm them?â
âIt was like talking to a toddler,â she said…
