“Trump actually had a very thoughtful and accurate response. So he wins.”
Yes, he almost never fails to respond with thoughtful answers, no matter how stupid or inappropriate the question is.
Ironic, isn't it? That was probably a "gotcha" question, and it demonstrated in the most sincere way imaginable that Trump's respect for life is heartfelt. Never in that answer did he diminish that it was a difficult situation that the gorilla was killed. He answered it like a grandfather would answer to a grandchild who was traumatized by a situation such as that.
