I know that trump is a child so none of this is surprising, but what bothers me is that Hillyard appears to not want to go on record regarding the incident. I can only assume that it's to protect his access to trump on future outings.

I don't like that.

Everyone scrambling to get the dumbest or most controversial comment from trump appears to have lost sight of the bigger picture: trump is an extremely dangerous person who has already tried to violently overthrow our government. Yet he continues to be enabled by everyone around him, including the press, unfortunately.
