FORT LAUDERDALE — President Donald Trump, first lady Melania Trump, Florida Sen. Marco Rubio, Florida Gov. Rick Scott and Florida Attorney General Pam Bondi met with Broward County Sheriff Scott Israel and law enforcement officers and first responders....

A transcript of the meeting with first responders as provided by the White House:

I just got back from the hospital. A young woman was shot — four bullets, two in her lungs. And they got her over to the hospital in less than 21 minutes. She had no chance, and, between the first responders, your people who got her — you know who I’m talking about — they got her there, Scott.

What a job you’ve done, and the doctors did a great job over at the hospital — a combination which is incredible. And I hope you’re getting the credit for it. Because, believe me, you deserve it. The job you’ve done is unparalleled.

THE PRESIDENT: Thank you all very much. Fantastic community here. Thank you. What a great job you’ve done, and we appreciate it very much. An incredible job, and everybody’s talking about it.

SHERIFF ISRAEL: You know what? I’m giving them all raises next week. (Laughter.)

THE PRESIDENT: Give them a raise. Give everybody here a raise.

SHERIFF ISRAEL: Mr. President, these are the leaders. They led SWAT teams; they led staging areas; they led command posts. These are the leaders who led the first responders for police and fire, our deputies who were able do the amazing things we did in Broward County.

So these men and women are — and we’re — so appreciative and honored that you and the First Lady could come down and spend time in Broward County and let us know what it means to you. So thank you very much.

Scott Israel, Sheriff of Broward County is a Democrat buddy of Debbie Wasserman Schultz. But even HE said this...which was not played on Miami TV news:

"Mr. President, I just want to, on behalf of this agency, thank you. You know, when you get to spend time with the President of the United States and the First Lady, it’s something you’ll never forget. But our conversation is not what I’m going to remember most. I’m going to remember about a half hour that you and the First Lady spent with the son of — who was shot — of one of our injured deputies. I’ll never forget that, and for you to do something like that is amazing. And it shows what you think of law enforcement, and we appreciate it."

"And then Marco said, “Hey” — he wants to go down early too. We didn’t want to wait. We didn’t want to wait."

Little Marco Rubio: "Oh please, oh please Mr. President. Can I please go with you too??"

you should see the video, though. Scott Israel looks like he was sucking on a lemon.

Meanwhile the villianous scum on the DUmp were speculating the First Lady did not go to Florida because of their made-up theory about her not being near him because of affairs.

Scott’s a better looking less shrill male version of Debbie.

Little Marco Rubio: “Oh please, oh please Mr. President. Can I please go with you too??”

POTUS said, “I’ll bring the water, lol.”

The sooner, the better in these situations, imho.

Obungo showed up in San Bernadino about 2 weeks after the rampage because he cared so much, snif.

That’s his resting look. Rat-faces always appear to be sucking lemons.

Trump thinking, “ So Scott, your deputies visited the killer 39 times since 2011? And 20 times in the past year? No action taken for beating up his elderly mother or brother? Voyeurism through the neighbor’s window? Self-mutilation?hmmmm”

I’d read they’re not traveling together because of threats to POTUS.

I saw a headline but didn’t read the article, that Scott Israel said that any politician who doesn’t support gun control won’t win the next election.

What a stupid tool. He better wise up...

Israel is playing to his base, which is Deb WS’s same whiney people.

{Scott Israel has very close connections to the HS. His triplet sons all played sports at Parkland; one son was the quarterback a few years ago.}

I see, so I assume his is an elected position. I hope he didn’t really mean that.
