President Donald Trump and first lady Melania Trump visited Pittsburgh Tuesday in the aftermath of the horrific Synagogue shooting that left 11 dead.

Pittsburgh resident Sheryl Mascio, however, captured a behind-the-scenes moment of the president as he visited survivors of the shooting at a nearby hospital. Mascio posted the video on Twitter and it quickly went viral.

The video shows Trump and Melania stopping on their tour of the hospital to greet doctors and nurses who were tending to the victims.

Well said! MAGA!

LOL, glad you liked it...after I wrote it, I thought "cyclotic's post really set me off!"

My posts are generally too long for a forum like Free Republic, but I can't send people short texts either,and at this point in my life, it doesn't look like I will change! Thanks for the feedback.

In my part of the country, wearing a MAGA hat is likely a hate crime...all the more reason I should wear it! And I did drive around in Kerry country with this on my car for a year and a half, and the only bad thing that happened was I got the middle finger from a little old liberal lady with a gray bun, so...maybe I make too much out of it!

Thanks, Fresh Wind. Boy, that video really hit me nicely this morning.

I live in a blue state, and sometimes I forget there are “normal” Americans out there like those hospital workers!

Amen to the; I was actually quite moved by that. Proud to have cast my vote for him, and I plan on doing so again in 2020.

For being a billionaire and President, he seems to interact normally with people.

I enjoy these candid videos as they are not staged.

As background, I once led a security detail for a cabinet-level Federal appointee. Watching Mr. Trump take the lead coming off the elevator, and then coming back and entering the side room without the room being cleared first would drive most agents crazy.

Mr. Trump is clearly in charge and his agents detailed to serve him must accommodate his style.

Watch Mr. Trump enter the room first and size up the situation himself. He is such a quick read and it must be a large part of his excellent track record on decisions. He observes and listens well.

He clearly does not walk in fear, rather in confidence. He also receives affirmation and energy meeting with regular people. He is not aloof in his presence.

Clearly the phrase Blue-Collar Billionaire fits him well.

And the best part is that he is so comfortable in his own skin that he can freely banter with folks. He loves the exchanges.

I am sure that his protection detail loves him, but that he drives them crazy with his free running style.

Loved it!

I met a woman last weekend who grew up in one of Fred Trump’s buildings in Queens. She said PDJT was the paper boy. Delivered the paper and collected the fees door to door.
He has always interacted with regular people.

So, as you can see, if people only listen to mainstream media, they'd NEVER know about your posted story.

That is a good and kind man!

Interesting insight, but...as you said, that seems to fit completely, doesn’t it? He does seem comfortable in his own skin.

Well, Trump is that way with business, I am sure...not knowing what he is going to do, which room he will walk into, when he might mysteriously disappear for 2 min or 6 hours.

That was probably Bill Clinton’s way with pleasure...not knowing what he is going to do, which room he will walk into, when he might mysteriously disappear for 2 min or 6 hours.

[rlmorel]

Of course. I can see that completely. That is why he became a billionaire...:)

[Batman11]

Very well said! Thank you!

[afsnco]

Cool video. I feel sorry for his detail, though. That’s always a nightmare when the protectee suddenly starts getting close to the public. And it’s not like there’s any shortage of scalpels, etc., in a hospital.

[rlmorel]

I think a lot of us feel that way...I think that video was good because it validated it. It wasn’t a stinking CNN crew filming it for their Dear Leader, this was a person in the crowd...in other words, US...

[Scott from the Left Coast]

Reality.

The Democrats and media (I’m being redundant) can’t deal with reality.

Everything they do and everything they “champion” is fakery and made up - a patchwork of lies built on top of each other. They can’t succeed unless they can make people believe lies.

[Califreak]

I love that video.

When I first heard he was running I had my doubts.

Then I watched his first speech.

I immediately jumped onto the Trump Train because I knew after that he was the right man for US.

It was very difficult to see all the nay sayers and never Trumpers on here for a while and all the infighting.

I felt in my heart that he was sincere and had our best interests in mind.

We are so blessed to have him and Melania at 1600.

Thank you Mr.President!

So wonderful

Thanks for posting :)
