The President is under fire after attacking his critics during his visits with victims and first responders following last weekend’s deadly mass shootings. The President trashed Mayor Nan Whaley of Dayton and Ohio Senator Sherrod Brown after visiting victims in Miami Valley Hospital.

….misrepresenting what took place inside of the hospital. Their news conference after I left for El Paso was a fraud. It bore no resemblance to what took place with those incredible people that I was so lucky to meet and spend time with. They were all amazing!o
