I agree with you, and I support his appearance here.
he should go but not this , he should have gone with no cameras earlier instead of waiting for the international media to be there.
Bush and his wife went with no big media so why does this man have to have camera ALL THE TIME for these events.
It is sickening and yet idiots around this country who are just too dumb to see how he is manipulating this will say good for him for going
He HAS to appear. That is what a Commander-in-Chief does, and unfortunately he is the C-i-C for three more years and a couple of months.
Of course, the time for him to demonstrate leadership as CiC was last Thursday, but before he could be bothered about addressing the incident he decided he needed to give a shout out to one of the attendees and carry on for several minutes with frivolity and triviality about the government conference rather than acknowledging the solemn nature of the events that had occurred hours earlier.
