Kate Steinle’s Brother Slams Trump: If You’re Gonna Sensationalize My Sister’s Death, Call First
Mediaite ^ | July 14, 2015 | Ken Meyer

“You hear Donald Trump talking about Kate Steinle like he knows her. I’ve never heard a word from his campaign manager, never heard a word from him. Its disconcerting and I don’t want to be affiliated with someone who doesn’t have the common courtesy to reach out and ask about our political views and what we want.”

TRUMP IS NOT THE PRESIDENT. Did he say anything about Obama?

I thought her parents have been on TV and other media and have full opportunity to state their views if they wish.

This brother as well.

So, this brother apparently thinks he owns his sister.

This is America, Brad. Trump can talk about whatever he wants. If not for Trump, the MSM would have covered this up and most of America would never have known, and you wouldn’t be talking to Anderson Cooper. Your sister’s death would have been ignored.

He can share his political views all he wants just like the rest of us. He doesn’t need Trump to babysit that. As for his sister, it is news. Everyone has an opinion. Brother is just being a bad brother.

Should he call before Obama does, or after?

Might be a long wait...

Unlike most of the cowards in the GOP Trump will probably tell his people to get him on the phone right now and find out what he wants. I would.

He probably just wants to own the rights to her story.

Pretty much. His sister would be a throw away never to be heard from.

Gee, brother of the victim, maybe there is an underlying principle at stake that is more important than what horrible thing has just happened to your sister.

Maybe Trump and we have a right to talk about what happened with or without your permission.

It's not always about you, liberals.

My first thought exactly! Nothing in there about NOT hearing from the loser in the White House. Maybe none of us care about your political views, Mr. Steinle. We just don’t want our sisters, daughters, brothers, etc. to fall victim to the same idiocy that manifested itself in your sister’s murder.

to reach out and ask about our political views and what we want

So I presume this guy, desperately seeking time in the spotlight (though of course I offer sympathy for his loss), disagrees with what Trump is saying ... and instead we should support the "right" of illegal mexicans to be given a repeated opportunity to murder an American

Why else would he even make such an obvious politically-motivated comment in his time of unspeakable grief? His ingratitude toward a person on the national stage -- and I'm not speaking of the president who is busy with other, more trivial matters than the death of an American citizen by a foreign invader -- who expresses anger at the murder of his sister is despicable at best.

Oh. OK.

Then it’s really kind of a good thing that an illegal randomly murdered your sister. Sorry for the inconvenience.

You flaming POS.

Trump probably views this as an opportunity. Contact the brother, express sympathy, acknowledge that brother and he disagree on sanctuary city policy, nobody mistakes Trump's words for brother's sentiment, but if it's okay with brother, Trump will make a point of saying brother disagrees with Trump on sanctuary city, etc.

“If you’re gonna use somebody’s name and sensationalize the death of a beauty young lady,” he said, “maybe you should call and talk to the family first and see what their views are.”

It doesn't work like that.

So if the brother supports illegal immigration, he had his whole life to say so BEFORE his sister was victimized!

Actually- he STILL can support illegal immigration if he wants to and no one will care if he does.

In the mean time, the rest of us may express OUR views on the matter, as well.

The Source says it all. I wonder if they actually interviewed the brother or just scripted their attack first.
